I’ve been reading a lot of blogs, topics range from photography, gadgets, Salesforce.com to running. It became a headache going to each website one by one so I started using Google Reader. It makes it more time efficient to be kept posted about everything.

| Allen - Old Man Running |
As of lately, I’ve started reading more stuff about running. I loved this one blog in particular – http://www.oldmanrunning.org. Was really, really helpful to me. It speaks a language that I can understand, no highfaluting words, just plain English. One topic that he’s been telling about recently is that of his high wakeup heart rate. I’ve been experiencing the same thing lately. He mentioned that it is caused by lack of sleep. That made sense of what I’m going through. I trained myself to wake up at around 6:00am in the morning every day – the first nights were hard, had to use Benadryl to get me to sleep. However, lately, my bed time is irregular – blame playing DotA again. >.< His blog just enlightened me.
The rest of his blog posts tell a story of how a 76-year-old man is going back to running. I'm now inspired to make my blog a diary of my running career! Follow his blog! Better yet, subscribe to his feeds through Google Reader.
Funny stuff from his feed -
1. If walking/cycling is good for health, postmen would be immortal.
2. A whale swims all day, only eats fish, drinks water and is fat.
3. A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years.
4. A tortoise doesn't run, barely walks and does nothing ..yet lives for 450 years.
And you want me to Exercise!!
(We all need a laugh once in a while)
