Today was a pretty good day for Apple. More information about the number of iPhones that got sold has trickled out and it is a large number. The stock went up 5% today. Good for me. If only I’d been really smart and bought TONS of it a few years ago. Hindsight…20/20…same old story.

Anyway, I finally got around to ordering a new (refurbed) iPod Nano and the Nike+Sensor thing so I can track my running mileage with it while listening to something along the lines of I Will Survive when plodding along.

I signed up for the Richmond City Marathon. I’ve never run a marathon before. I entered one once but yanked my knee two weeks before it. That was a bit more than two years ago. The marathon is the second week of November. I really hope it isn’t over 80 that day. I’ve started doing some swimming, doing longer runs, and doing some weights (especially for my legs). My goal…finish it in less than four hours. We’ll see how it goes.

Tomorrow morning I’m running a 5k. I don’t think there is another race here in town until September. Very empty summers around here.

Meanwhile…time to kick back on the couch and watch some of the Twilight Zone marathon running on SciFi Channel. That should help my training…right…

Update: Race was rather warm and muggy for 7:30am. 22 minutes. Very consistent three miles of fun.
