This One Is For Me

For the past year or so I have been running a website that deals specifically with trail running and other running topics. I started it for a college project my time with which to work on it has diminished and it has grown into more of a company than I really have time for. While I am still updating the site I am interested by so many more outdoor avenues than just running.

I have been an outdoor enthusiasts for as long as I can remember, and it has only escalated since moving to the mountains of North Eastern, Arizona in 2000. This blog may eventually be followed by an outdoor adventure business but for now this one is for me. There is no business plan, no posting schedule. Sure I'd like to have a decent following but this will never be a generalized description of all things out doors. This will simply be a narrative of my adventures, with as much useful information that I feel is necessary to slip in.

The fact is I love the outdoors. Backpacking, hiking, running, cycling, mountain biking, camping, 4x4 ing (if that's a term), kayaking, swimming, I love it all and I'll be posting about all the adventures I am having.  I hope to provide something of value to my readers but I want to do that in a way that this writing can add value to me as well. I look forward to blogging about my favorite subjects. I hope you'll enjoy as well.
