Don't worry, you're not supposed to be at work
Recently, I haven't posted anything on Saturdays. Blog traffic is always a little lighter on the weekends, and it just seems I have more good stuff to write about during the week. But the idea came to me (on a run, of course) that perhaps Saturdays would [...]

All things running
Take one down, pass it around
As of yesterday, 99 No Meat Athlete shirts (plus a few freebies) are floating around this planet! Most are in the U.S. lower 48, but I've shipped some to Hawaii, Australia, Denmark, and many to Canada (eh?). This is so neat for me, since when I first considered getting [...]
Hi there, I'm Matt. I went vegetarian last March, and almost immediately I became a much stronger runner. I recently qualified for the Boston Marathon; now it's on to my first 50-miler!
