justyouraveragejoggler — Wow! This is amazing. Here’s the latest development in robotic juggling. It’s a one-arm, two ball juggling robot.

justyouraveragejoggler — When I was working a regular job we had a gym with a small (1/4 mile) indoor track. Occasionally the treadmills would all be occupied so I would joggle around the track.

thehappyrunner.blogspot — Two sleeps 'til Jersey! I'm gunning for a good night of sleep tonight, because I highly doubt I'll sleep much on Saturday. Nerves, nerves, nerves. Speaking of nerves . . . I have my marathon goals all laid out. There have been days when I've thought, "I've got some nerve thinking I can...

sportsdoc.runnersworld — I recently finished the 2012 Paris Marathon, but it was very painful. I had cramping/spasms in both legs around the 27K and had to stop and stretch many times. I’ve completed eight marathons and this experience really scared me. I … Continue reading →
thehappyrunner.blogspot — The New Jersey marathon is a week and a half away. That's it. There is one more weekend in between now and the race. One more long run. A few easy runs. And a lot of crazy. Crazy? Yes, crazy. In the form of me. I fully admit that I have gone crazy. I've...
