Well, I'm trying to work through my stomach problem with my chiropractor. Some days it feels like the problem is gone while others the pain come out of nowhere. I'm happy to be able to run, and I've been doing so for runs of up to 1 hour long. However, I'm not happy that here I am at mid-year 2011 without having run a single race.

Having bailed out of the Ojai 2 Ocean Marathon, I went ahead and signed up for the Malibu Marathon again this year on November 13th, only 5 months away.

On that note, here's an interesting song called "Run Conejo Run" that I'd never heard before prior to fellow local runner Jonathan S making me aware of it tonight. Sung by Dave Alvin.
