I love running. I would like to say that I’m a runner but I’m more of a jogger since my speed is not the greatest.
Last weekend I exchanged a few tweets with Martin Weller (mweller) about running. He told me that he is trying to run 1000 miles this year! I have to say that this impressed me. To me THAT is a goal.
So it got me thinking…
Why can’t I do that?
I’m a ‘runner’… in the Summers, when its not to hot.
So I decided I was going to do the same thing…or close to the same thing. I’m not changing the numbers just the measurement. I will use Km instead of miles. Its almost the same…give or take 600km 
So here goes:
I, Justin Menard, will ‘run’ 1000 km in the next year.
This quest will start on September first 2009 January 1st 2010. It will be a difficult journey.
But…Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of ice stays this ‘runner’ from the semi-swift completion of his appointed ‘run’!
More to follow.
September 1st: 6km down 994 to go…
