i’m not even going to bother breaking out the (lack of) running this past week. as expected, i got very little in. sab was out of school sick monday afternoon, tuesday and wednesday. sleep was a rarity for both of us and running had little priority. on thursday i started to feel a dull ache in my [...]

as much as the title of this post likely sounds as though it will some how tie into my disney marathon training, it really has very little to do with it. the term “disney world dad” refers to a father that spoils his kid(s) after a divorce be it from guilt or insecurity with the parental relationship. maybe [...]
