I find it useful to have models for achievement that go far beyond what I intend to accomplish. I am no slouch, but I came across an article in the current Wired magazine about Dean Karnazes that made me happy. Hailed as the fittest man in the world, I was really taken with his tips and adventurous philosophy. I went to Borders and picked up his book, Ultramarathon Man, I’ll let you know how it goes.

One thing is for sure, his story and website, make me want to strap on my running shoes again!
