Boo!
Yet again, it's been far too long since I've posted here. Oh well. Blame Twitter and/or Facebook if you must. Quick hit-and-run run-down:
A) Em's great. I love that little girl. Words and photos fall miles short of describing her awesomeness.
B) I ran a marathon in April and I'm supposedly training for the Chicago Marathon in October, but I haven't run in almost 2 full weeks due to a creeping illness which has taken away all of my energy. Need to shake it off soon.
C) I never wrote a proper Illinois Marathon wrap-up. I thought I had one well underway, but all I can find now is my 'notes' file. Here it is:
<Quote>
What went wrong:
Inconsistency in first 10 (and throughout). a) Should have had 1-mile paces. b) park route was slow and passing was impossible c) 2nd half was hillier than expected.
Calf cramp - pre-race stretching? Water/nutrition?
Hip fatigue - stride?
Wind/uphills = mental. 9MPH headwinds on the uphill stretch around Mile 18-19.
Tingling in last 2-3 miles.
What went right:
Tim, Chris, Dennis.
Had gas left to sprint the end.
Weather (other than wind).
CROWD/VOLUNTEER SUPPORT!!!
Other points:
The Champaign Country Club mile SUCKED! My slowest mile.
Garmin was good, but it disagrees with reality. It gave me about 0.01 mile extra per course mile. At the end of the race, that added up to over a quarter mile of difference. It's minor, but noteworthy. Also, for whatever reason, my watch time differs from the official chip time but nearly a minute. I'm not sure how to resolve that.
<EndQuote>
My photos from the event.
Tim Borbely's photos from the event.
Oh and here, listen to this PODCAST about the Illinois Marathon: 061_2009IllinoisMarathonPodcast.mp3
D) Motorcycling:
i) Not ONLY motorcycling related, but everyone who drives should visit The Black Nail Brigade web site and in particular, read The Black Nail Brigade Manifesto. This is no joke. This is not a fashion statement. This is about life and death and the preservation and prevention thereof. Go. Read. Now. I'll wait for you.
ii) Been doing a bit of riding. Not much on the dual sport, but some here and there.
iii) Got waylaid by a minor accident in May when an ignorant woman pulled in front of me. You can search out details in my Flickr photo stream. I am well or at least really close to it, the bike is well, damage insurance has been settled, injusry insurance is still outstanding.
iv) Just bought tickets to the Moto GP races in Indianapolis at the end of August. This will be my first race experience ever, believe it or not - car, motorcycle, whatever. Should be a blast.
E) Computers - I've been burned out on technology lately in part because a seriese of hardware failures have just beaten the crap out of me both at home and at work. But I've lately heard about some interesting projects which have rekindled a bit of a spark. I no particular order of usefulness to my life, examples are: Xen, eyeOS, Evernote (used it before, using it more now), a cheap analog to digital video capture device from Woot!, some stuff with MythTV, and a few other things I've forgotten already. OLPC or something like it for Emily? Anyway, yeah, tech = cool.
F) Pets: Harrison died back in November. Not sure if I ever posted that. Also, a few months back we got fish. Now we have a TON of them. And a snail. I love watching them.
G) Flying. Have done NONE in a long, LONG time. Doesn't even look like I'll make it to Oshkosh this year. A bummer, but oh well. *sigh*
Ok, I'm running out of steam on this latest hit-and-run. As I always say, I'll try not to be such a stranger. Yeah, right.
Later.

On October 25, 2008, My Darling Rose and I ran the Team Ortho Monster Dash Half Marathon in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This was my first half marathon and MDR's third. This is our race report while driving home a few days after the race. Sorry about the fussy baby in the background.

2008 Ride for Kids Fund Raising Plea
Click to listen, right-click to save -> 2008 Ride for Kids Fund Raising Plea - 2.8MB - 1:58
Hey remaining die-hard listeners, it's Oblivion with a short edition of EbloTheWeblog.com. Last summer, as you may remember, I raised over $1600 for the Chicagoland Ride for Kids charity motorcycle ride benefiting the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation. The Chicago event set a new record and raised over $400,000 to fund research to treat and cure bother cancerous and non-cancerous brain tumors in children. Last year, due to my fund raising efforts, I got to meet some of the children who have benefited from this research and I have to tell you they really motivated me to ride again this year.
My goal for this year has been to match my funds raised last year, but unfortunately I'm falling short and the ride is THIS Sunday, July 20th. If you'd like to donate, any amount would be appreciated not only by me, but more importantly by the children and families of children with brain tumors. You can donate at http://www.firstgiving.com/markmatula .
If you happen to get this message AFTER July 20th, you can still donate - the money will still go to a great cause and any amount will be credited towards my fund raising efforts for next year's ride. You can bet I'll be riding again.
Thank you for supporting me and this great charity and thank you for staying subscribed. I hope to have a real show out shortly discussing my recent adventures. Have a wonderful day.

On Sunday, April 6, My Darling Rose ran/walked in the Go! St. Louis Half-marathon - her first ever such athletic event. This weekend, I interviewed her to find out just what the HELL she was thinking when she got herself into this. :)
In addition to this interview, she has also posted a cool write-up in her LiveJournal, so check that out.
If you'd like to join her in the upcoming Chicago Distance Classic Half Marathon on August 10, 2008, contact her via her LiveJournal or through me using the contact info on this page.
BTW, her time was 2:46:11. Not bad at all for a rookie. Congrats, babe, we're very proud of you.

My latest audio post is a collection of recordings I made on the Alaska Airlines trip to Anchorage a few weeks ago. The recordings were made on the iRiver iFP-899 which was plugged into the aux out on a Sigtronics...

All I can say so far is, London, I grieve and seethe with you. My heart goes out to all of the innocent victims who were injured or killed and all of the families who are suffering. Peace. (Watch...

Last night, we got to a good spot to watch our local fireworks display just in time as they were starting. The whole show lasted about 25 minutes, and for a small city, I must say we represented. This grand...

I know I'm blowing my wad here with a third audio post in four days, but I've been stashing up this stuff for a while, so now I want to get it out. Today's bit of audio is actually...

This is my second 'cast'. I doubt it is going to have any universal appeal. The main audio is from 6/25/05. On the drive to an R/C airplane show, I chat up the iriver iFP-899 some more, including a near-meltdown...

Although this is mostly a test of Brandon Fuller's MovableType Enclosures plugin, there's also a little substance. This is an MP3 of a 'remix' of a voicemail I sent to The UFN Podcast. It cracks my shit up. Did I...
I hadn't even gotten around to writing about it yet, and The Micah's Minute Podcast is going off the air. The show was often, but not always, about the controller's side of Air Traffic Control. As a pilot, I loved...

I suck. Way behind on posting. A few things: Going to Alaska soon. Woot! I need more Compact Flash memory. I met Drew of the Dawn and Drew Show podcast and took him for an airplane ride. We recorded the...

Just today/yesterday, I started messing around with iPodder(.org) and podcasts. I don't have an iPod, but I do have a disc-based MP3 player in my car, so the plan is to get feeds in iPodder, dump them to CD-RW periodically...

This is just a placeholder for my Promo since iTunes likes to play the oldest entry in the RSS feed. Don't trust the date. Eblo_Promo_170_sec_w_Obliv.mp3 - 2:50...
