Here are some of my hobbies. |
RUNNING
There is no doubt about it, I am a social runner. I meet a few friends each morning to go for a jog and we talk about everything under the sun. Occasionally we run a race just to stay motivated. I ran the Charlotte Observer Marathon in 1990 and the Deseret News Marathon (Utah) in 1993. I also ran the Parkersburg Half Marathon 6 times (1994, 1996, 1997, 1999, 2000, 2002).
Cool sites:
I play tennis during the summer and fall. I prefer to go for a short run at 6 a.m. then play tennis for an hour or two at 7. I haven't been into the tennis web sites much so can't tell you about them.
I love to play chess. I often play internet blitz chess and prefer to play 3 0, 4 0, or 5 0 games. You see me on FICS as BMO and US chesslive as OBwan.
I've played in a few tournaments, but my US Chess Federation membership is not current. I even played postal chess for awhile.
