I've always contended that some of my best thinking is done while running. I can now add that some of the best ideas come from running with other people and just tossing ideas about.
I was out on the trails today with Barbara, who suggested I start a running blog. She pointed to one that the Sacramento Bee was running. Unbeknownst to her, the Bee killed it today. The reason: not enough Web hits.
In this day and age of Web communication, publishers look only at numbers. If you don't generate the hits or visits or page views, you're dead.
Since I don't have to answer to a big publishing house, I can somewhat ignore the numeric side of things.
Barbara thought of me since I have a passion for writing and running, and I'm connected to the Modesto running community. That includes the fun runs, marathons, ultra-runs and even track.
In the coming months, I hope to write on all of those and then some. You don't have to be an Olympian to enjoy jogging or running. You just need a good pair of shoes and some dedication.
And we have some real good stories to tell about Modesto's runners. So, as they say on t.v., stay tuned.
Feel free to suggest ideas, too.
