Actually, I have, on occassion, done just that; one can look down the list of previous posts and find them easily enough.

But, this is supposed to be a forum, whihc measn a place for discussing issues in running--positive, negative, or in between.

Forum does not necessarily translate to cheerleading site. And I do lean in the opposite direction--primarily because I feel too many people out here only want to hear "good news" and don't like to face uncomfortable issues.

That includes our local newspaper correspondents, by the way. They have argued that happy, celebratory stories are what their public wants to read. That may very well be true, but it's not fully responsible journalism. And I often feel the need to make up some of that lack.
