More Zombies for my iPhone

Brian — Wed, 16 May 2012 14:01:37 +0000

I don’t know what’s been going on with me lately, but I’ve had an eye for zombie products. I already have a running game about zombies, but now I have a nice compliment for it. A weather app. Seriously, there’s a zombie weather app. It’s called Weather Zombie, oddly enough. I can’t believe that I found [...]

I recently got started using Google Analytics, so I’m catching certain stats for the very first time. I wanted to compare it to WordPress Stats (now part of Jetpack) and maybe try to build up an audience by figuring out what people actually want to read about. Well, beyond the obvious fact that no one [...]

Running from Zombies Every Morning

Brian — Tue, 08 May 2012 00:32:36 +0000

Lately I’ve been running from zombies every morning to gather supplies for a small settlement of post-apocalyptic survivors. I know, it sounds like more crazy talk. No surprises there, but I’m serious about the zombies. They’re virtually wheezing down my neck me every morning. And of course, like any reasonable person, I’ve been running away. [...]

Champ on Church Fun Run

Brian — Tue, 01 May 2012 10:59:20 +0000

I was walking Cara to work when I saw a race registration table down the street. We had walked down to Church street and I had already run 10K that morning, so I had no illusions about participating. Still, I had to know what was going on. It turned out to be a free kids [...]

68. 5K for Vermont HOBY, 2011

Brian — Sat, 14 Apr 2012 18:15:45 +0000

Lately the weather has been easing up, so I started looking around for my first race of the season. Back in Charleston, the “season” is actually more like 11 months, but in Vermont its a bit shorter. After looking around on Active.com, I found two really small races for this weekend. The one I chose [...]

Burlington Winter Festival

Brian — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 19:34:23 +0000

There was a little festival this weekend down on Church Street. The action was going to happen later in the day, but I got there a bit early. Cara was asked to work on her day off, so I walked down with her. On the way back, I got to see some of the ice [...]

Banned by Wal-Mart

Earlier today I posted a blog entry about running in downtown Burlington, Vermont. I then posted the link to my Facebook, Google+ and Twitter accounts. It included some pretty saucy subject matter, like the incline on Main Street, and how tired I was when I got to the top. It also has romance and passion, [...]

Uphill on Main Street

Brian — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 15:42:23 +0000

The weather was too good to pass up, so I didn’t. The temperature was 36F, so I didn’t even need my tights or my gloves… just my Space Jacket and a sport skully. A beautiful day like this just screams out for something special, so I decided to hit Main Street in downtown Burlington. Main Street [...]

All Kinds of Weather

Brian — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 03:51:15 +0000

It’s been a couple of weeks since I moved back to Burlington, Vermont. It seems longer, of course. Since returning, I’ve seen temperatures below zero. I’ve had my handy Carhartt and some other gear, so I was prepared. Strangely enough, I seem to be a better New Englander than Cara is. I mean, I actually like [...]

This Year’s First Real Winter Run

Brian — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 11:39:16 +0000

I can’t believe it’s really been this long since I’ve gone running, but there really has been a lot going on. We recently moved back up to Burlington, Vermont, so Winter is now spelled with a capital “W”. Unlike South Carolina, Winter is a very real thing in New England. Down south, I would just [...]
