OC 5K course - Douglas Stockdale 2012 Week one of my 5K challenge was interesting and a bag of mixed results. First the good news, I did work on this for the entire week and I am convinced that I can complete a 5K in under an hour. For most of you, I am assuming... Continue Reading →
Kellie’s 5K Challenge – training course
Today I mapped out a route through my neighborhood that appeared to provide me with a 5K training course. One of the issues with South Orange County is that this area is not flat.

Convergence & Resonance
CDG - Douglas Stockdale 2012 It is interesting that while I am in the process of vetting one project that another related project gains clarity (convergence).

Kellie’s 5K Challenge – Day one of training
Day one Sometimes I really wonder what I get myself into. So yesterday while talking with my daughter, she stated that the very best thing that I could do for myself is to run and not walk my 5 miles. And to do that 5 miles more frequently than what I do today. Anyhow, one... Continue Reading →
