In this podcast, I talk a little bit about some of the events I did with my friends. A link mentioned in the show: Running from the Reaper (Nigel's podcast)

After taking a week off from running, I hit the road again in my futile attempt to actually pound myself into the pavement. In this podcast, I talk about what's on my mind and make a plea to all male runners out there to take care of their nipples.

I'm in "taper" mode now although the miles seem endless to get my body ready for the Outer Banks Marathon. In this episode, I hit the hills on Blunts Bridge Road (see a vulture having dinner) and have trouble deciding to run 5 or 7 miles. I also include a neat race report audio clip at the end of the show.
