To me, the on-line logging thing is great, but it in no way affects my training. I kept paper records for nearly 20 years, and only recently have I given them up in favor of electronic journals.

Sometimes people ask if we train to race. I would train whether or not I ever entered a race again. In other words, it's the journey, not the destination.

A couple of years ago I was at a large social skate in New York City. Not really an athletic thing, just a few hundred friends doing four different twenty mile skates through the city over the course of a weekend.

Anyway, at one point a few dozen of us were at an intersection waiting for a green light. A couple of little old ladies walked out of a restaurant and saw us all standing there. One of them asked me "What are you training for?" I said "To be eighty." That got a very positive response.
