Thanks to Rick for pointing me there.

If you haven’t seen the new box to the right, or have seen it and wondered what it is… it’s from cocomments.com, and cool little tool used to track your commenting around the web. So when I post comments on other folks blogs, they will show up in the that box. You can keep up with what I’m saying around the ‘net.

It also tracks the conversations for me, notifying me when a new comment is posted to any of the posts that I’ve commented on. Fun, fun. It can also include my messageboard posts, but I thought that was bit much, and exclude them from tracking.

There’s even a feed if you want to keep up with my comments without visiting my blog.

Anyhow. Enjoy.

I guess today is the quarterly 2007 Goals Update…

Megan and I are on track with our bible reading. We got behind for a while there. At one point we were about 20 chapters behind. But as of last night, we were caught up with the schedule. Which puts us about two thirds of the way through 1 Samuel. Which is a very exciting time in God’s story of redemption.

As for my other goals, if you’re interested…. I haven’t finished a book since January, and still no grad school applications submitted.

So, I’m still working on my goal of the 5K race this fall. Yesterday was a stepping stone day, as I “ran” a two mile course. And it didn’t take me much longer than the just-over-one-mile course that I’ve previously been running. Which means I’m running more. I also mostly have ditched the program that Megan found. I’ve found that my body is getting used to the strain, and the minute on/minute off thing doesn’t really push me. So I pretty much run for as long as I can (which is getting longer), and then walk for as short as I can to get my breath back (which is getting shorter).

So, while I’m still a pathetic loser in the running department, I think I’m making progress, and maybe in another month or so I’ll be able to keep a steady pace for a whole mile.
