New Car...and Training for a half marathon...and Hogs and Dogs.

Well the ole "Silver Bullet" was put to rest today for a 2009 Altima..black. So a new era begins. And...I decided to start training for a half marathon in March or April. I have been running alot lately, but I have been hampered by a bum left ankle. Hopefully there is nothing too wrong with it and I can make it through. I think this will be easier than it is for most people, because I have a kick ass support team of friends that have done it. I logged about 18 miles last week. I have only run about 5 this week, but thats because I am being a wuss on my ankle. The whole quitting smoking thing should help...although to be honest...I cheated big time the other night when I went drinkin with some of the boys...its amazing how easy it is when you are not drinking, but as soon as you grab a beer, those damn things look tasty. But we will fight through it.

Hogs and Dogs this weekend...in what is becoming a semi-annual ritual, my brother, father, and I will be headed to watch the Hogs probably get the ass kicked by Mississippi State...but it will be fun to get the boys back together and bring along the Collinman for his first Hog game. Good Times.
