• A Remembrance • [2½ MIN READ] I can only claim to knowing John Van Allen from a relatively limited perspective, given that I came on as a club member in the last 10 years (in 2013) of his 30-some year tenure. Still, based on what I’ve learned myself and heard from others (before and … More Zen Yanni (#130: 5/6/23)
• More about my running and writing • [2 MIN READ] Last week’s Cerebrun was about the running writing I’ve been doing for this feature of the GGR weekly message (#203). Back in December (#185), I shared about being able to read them collectively at Running @ iCandybyWangC. Face it; if you want to reread … More Needed to Come Out (#204: 2023’05’03’W)
• Imagine what real training could do • [1½ MIN READ] Last week (#201), I was seriously pondering an unplanned marathon for 16’U (Coastal Delaware Running Festival, Rehoboth Beach). This week I’m still pondering it: as a done deal. I drove down with the SRC running buddy who planted the seed for the race and … More A Little Conditioning Wasn’t Such a Dangerous Thing (#202: 2023’04’19’W)
• A possible upcoming marathon in point • [1½ MIN READ] Broad Street (04’30’U) has been the motivation for getting various Growlers to push harder the last few weeks (Training). If there’s no race on a runner’s calendar, it is definitely hard to put out training effort. That was my problem until 03’31’F, a mere … More A Little Conditioning Can Be a Dangerous Thing (#201: 2023’04’12’W)
• Cerebruns and the Growlers Group Run • [2 MIN READ] This Cerebrun marks #200 which began as thoughts then “Thoughts” 4½ years ago (2018’09’26’W). (If you want to see the numerical progression as the weeks go by, check out each posting on Cerebruns by CtCloser.) ATTENDANCE: Since the first, the attendance has changed just … More What’s Changed and What’s Stayed the Same (#200: 2023’04’05’W)
• Reassign culpability. It’s much more entertaining. • [2 MIN READ] I strained my right calf a few months ago. Fortunately, physical therapy that I got last year for Achilles tendinopathy also works for strained calves. They’re all kind of connected: literally. After a few months of doing that exercise, that calf is closer to … More It’s Not My Fault (#199: 2023’03’29’W)
• Sometimes, the harder you try… • [1 MIN READ] There’s one person who’s virtually made a running career with the club by not being around for the picture but showing up eventually to run anyway. If we stall our departure from the store, we can occasionally catch him. Sometimes we’re right and sometimes we’re … More He Who Shall Not Be Pictured (#198: 2023’03’22’W)
• A particular thing from a particular individual • [1½ MIN READ] The prompt for this Rumination was a run with the Blue Belle contingent of SRC. The bunch of us took off from a park in North Wales and it wasn’t long before Lisa Marie apologized for being kind of loud. Not to say … More To Hell with This (#123: 3/11/23 RUN REPORT)
• Prophets We Are Not. Thankfully. • [1¾ MIN READ] A few weeks ago, Jim joked about my effort to fix the photographic attendance record (2023’02’21’T). You can go read that Cerebrun for more details; but basically, I had x-ed Jim out from one photo because I had added him to earlier one in error. … More Things Did Not Go South, Permanently (#197: 2023’03’15’W)
• Applying higher level thinking to lower level writing • [4 MIN READ] A definition of scholarship I like to use is ‘scholars writing for other scholars with scholarly intent’. As for the definition of scholar, I use ‘someone who contributes directly to schooling’, i.e., a teacher or an educator. Most of the time, suitable … More Common Knowledge and Relative Authority
