Thoughts and ramblings of an ultrarunner. I love long runs because I can think freely.

A Very Historic Day - Un Día Muy Histórico
When I started this blog, I made a conscious choice to keep it non political. Not that I'm not political, I'm a very political person. And I will admit that for the first time in my life, I contributed to a presidential candidate. However, I didn't want the blog to be political. Politics has gone beyond civil reasonable discussion and disagreement, to nasty dirty lies and innuendos about people. Nevertheless, I cannot stand silent on the historical nature of, and the statement made by the people of the America I live and vote in. I will leave it with "we can only hope that the promises become reality." "Esperamos que las promesas serán realidad."

Well said my friend. Well said.
I'm very proud to live in this country even though I'm disappointed with the result. Time to move on.
Obama is the conductor and we (all Americans) are the orchestra; this was an incredible step. Lets all help to make this country be the light of the planet. Time to play the music.

Esperemos que asi sea.
It will definitely be an interesting next few years. Hopefully he can clean up some of this mess the country is in right now.
Well I must admit to voting for the "other guy" but I too stand in humble reverance to history in the making and I look forward to the future ahead of us. I truly believe the best man won the race on Tuesday and I look ahead to supporting his efforts to steer our great country back on track.
