The second race report I started out in a word document with a few headlines for some structure.
Then I just wrote the report without too much stopping to correct any of the spellings or grammer (red or green wiggly line). It ended up as 5,000 words done in about 3 or 4 hours!!
I then went back the next day and edited it and added some details about my performance which made it to 5,400 words. Then I separated the sections/chapters out as individual blog posts and added some photos and videos plus relevant web site links.
It did not feel too bad doing it this way and I even lost track of the time when writing apart from when getting up for a drink.

Writing Some Race Reports
I have even got in to the writing frame of mind when writing some long distance race reports recently. For the first one I separated the sections (aka Chapters) of the race as separate blog entries. They were quite big with some photos and videos.
For the next one I have wrote down the sections (chapter headings) and put in some draft items to include in that chapter. I must get round to complete it.

Photojogging
Not quite writing again but been creative and done a couple of photojogging runs recently in addition to the Santa Run race in Aberdeen. I had seen this in the film Yes Man and though it is a good fun way to go out running with being concerned over your pace but more the surroundings.
The recent snow has gave me a few good opportunities while running to and from work. The first set of photos and second set of photos.
Although I have not been writing these could be good inspiration for future scenes to write about. I was even thinking up a name for character on the second set of photos which Lars seemed to fit.
