Life outside academics
"We run, not because we think it is doing us good, but because we enjoy it and cannot help ourselves. . . The more restricted our society and work become, the more necessary it will be to find some outlet for this craving for freedom."
--Sir Roger Bannister

I am a proud member of Marathon Maniacs and the 50 States Marathon Club with a goal of running a marathon in each of the 50 states.  The map below depicts the states I have completed and is colored according to the year that I ran a marathon in said state.

August 2009, I was introduced to the sweetest little guy in the world.
