While I was going through my divorce, I found it difficult (as a man) to find resources to help me weather the storm. I ended up in a church group pretty far from where I lived. It wasn’t my preference but it was all I could find.

My family and I would like to thank everyone who showed up at one of the wakes or at the funeral, who sent us a card, or who made a donation to ALSA on behalf of our dad.
Your love and support helped make this very difficult time a little easier.
God bless you and your loved ones.

Another marathon bites the dust. This time it was the New York City Marathon and I ran it in memory of my recently deceased father, Ken.
It was an amazing running day–sunny and cool–and the race itself was unbelievable.
I beat my Vermont City Marathon time (5:09 turtle time) by 15 minutes finishing at 4:54. My last five weeks in training were marred by a nagging shin splint in my left leg and then the death of my father. I wasn’t tracking my time for most of the race; I just wanted to enjoy the run.
