A lesson from the Obama Administration

"If the Government can achieve reform and progress through greater transparency and accountability via weekly broadcasts and publicizing statistics, so can I," I though to myself. Yes, I actually thought that to myself. Well, no I didn't. At least those were not the exact words that went through my mind. But I'll tell you why it was a bad idea. Now, for the greater good, I have to expose myself and my projects to public scrutiny. It means I will have to post things that are unfinished or imperfect, which will drive me crazy. It ought to be therapeutic. Enjoy it.

I'll be posting statistics, and yes, a weekly broadcast. The statistics will be a description of where I am vs. where I should be on my Marathon training schedule. The broadcast will be a recording of some trombone piece or other that I am working on that week.

So to kick this off:
Week 5
Long Run Expected: 4.4 miles
Long Run Actual: 3.6 miles

And my broadcast (if this works):
Telemann Fantasia No. 9 (a duet I recorded with myself—sorry about the pause at the beginning)
