boston

I just want to thank all my friends -- who supported me at Boston this year. Everyone was absolutely great! And a special "thank you" to the good people of Jack Rabbit Sports in New York who were nice enough to stop and give me a lift to the starting line. Ro provides all the details.

Washington DC

I got back from DC a few weeks ago...some pics...

The light(s) that guide me

This winter I've been running mostly at night. There's not much to see at night -- with the obvious exception being streetlights.

I now offer my thoughts (and mostly photos) of streetlights.

This old fashioned light provides a surprisingly bright amount of light.

This modern light provides runners with great night visibility.

I took this in West Hartford. They apparently were not satisfied with the old light (background) thus a new one was needed (foreground).

This is just some random light from a parking lot.

Old light.


New light.

A very common light in these parts.

Another West Hartford light. Very festive, I might add.

This is what I call a marker light.

This light is very bright. I don't like it -- it is too bright.

This is my favorite streetlight. It is much more mellower then most streetlights. It is a "light" but it is not outrageously bright (you don't want your street to be too bright at night).
