Landmark Run
« Previous EntriesLandmark Run Coverage and Slideshow
Thursday, November 1st, 2007It’s been 3 solid days since the conclusion of the run and I am feeling good. I was a little sore but am coming together in a hurry. I’ll take the week off from running before getting back at it next week. A most enjoyable cross country run at the Living History Farms takes place […]
The Return - Day 10 Mission Accomplished
Monday, October 29th, 2007I started this run back on April 19th with the sole intention of completing it in the span of 15 days. Back then, it seemed like a reasonable expectation. 32 miles a day over 8-10 hours a day, spread out over 15 days. No problem right! That’s what I thought. Things went smooth for several […]
The Return - Day 9
Sunday, October 28th, 2007Finally! Day 9 is in the books. It was another beautiful day. I decided early on today to just take care of myself and enjoy the day. It hit me sometime around noon, that I would be done tomorrow. It really hit me when I began seeing signs for Omaha, West Dodge and South Omaha […]
The Return - Day 8
Saturday, October 27th, 2007Day 8 is in the books. Today was yet another ideal day for running and I enjoyed every minute of it. I began the day at the junction of Highway 92 and David City and ran east to Wahoo, where I am staying the night.
I was happy to be joined for a little while by […]
The Return - Day 7
Friday, October 26th, 2007Well, I am going to make this short and sweet. I am using the computer at the front desk of the Rose Hotel in David City. The room at the Rose was arranged for me by none other than Tami Peasinger and I could not be more grateful. I have a king size bed, a […]
The Return - Day 6 Blue Skies Again
Thursday, October 25th, 2007Same story, different verse. The skies are shining on me… literally. In the last several days, I have forgotten what a cloud looks like and quite honestly could care less if I ever see another. I’m sure some farmers in this part of the country might wonder what I am thinking, but it is very […]
The Return - Day 5 It Keeps Getting Better
Wednesday, October 24th, 2007I am starting to sound like a broken record, but there is simply no better way to describe the last few days other than perfect. Yeah I said it… perfect, perfect, PERFECT. Another cloudless sky, another day in the 60’s. So what else could add to this day?
Besides the fact Andy was along today, I […]
The Return - Day 4
Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007One more day down, one more perfect fall day. What more can a guy ask for?
Todays run took me through Gibbon, Shelton, Wood River (otherwise known as Stick Crick), Alda, and to downtown Grand Island. I feel as good now, maybe better, than I did on day one and am looking forward to what remains […]
The Return - Fall Splendor
Monday, October 22nd, 2007If I had to give up one day like yesterday in order to receive a day like today, I would do it every time. First of all, yesterday was great, but today, now today was a different story all together. Today is what fall is all about. It is one that makes that makes me […]
The Return - Day 2 1/2
Sunday, October 21st, 2007The theme for today was cold (not too cold), windy (yes, but at my back), rainy (uh huh, but not heavy) and downright perfect! The three elements mentioned contributed to a nice day to run…. in my opinion. Some people may consider me nuts, but I think I’ve already proven that by the fact I […]
