It's almost impossible not to be motivated when a new issue comes! It's also nice the way they blend articles about the elites and us 'non-elites'. I've suggested the magazine to a few beginning runners and also typically give my old issues away to anyone who even mentions they may be interested. I am also a big fan of ‘Runner’s World’.

I know there are advantages and disadvantages to all the seasons, but it's so nice to wear minimal clothes and get sweaty. Nothing feels better than post shower time after a good run.

The record is compiled for me and easily accessed. But I know what you mean about the "old school" paper and pencil. Actually, if you think about it, I'm currently using a training schedule and have been rigidly following it. I have it copied and taped on my desk. So, I guess I am back to paper!
