12 years ago, I was working help desk at a small company in Upstate NY. One of our analysts was on the phone with a customer in NY, and that was how we heard about it. As we continued to work, we got further updates – as many of our customers were in the NY area.
We turned up the radio, and monitored the internet for as much information as we could, as we sat there in fear and in horror.
Today I am not going to post about running. Today? I remember.

Where were you when you heard?
I run, because I am a runner. Having realized that I have always "been a runner" - even when I went years with out running, I am learning how it has integrated itself in all aspects of my life. When I started running in highschool, my perspective on life changed. Funny that I didn't realize how much it had affected it until just recently.
