Got into running to add some cardio
Lifting weights once and a while
Hi! I'm Thad and I'm the host of RunnerDude's blog (http://ncrunnerdude.blogspot.com) and owner of RunnerDude's Fitness (www.runnerdudesfitness.com). I'm also an ESR (Endurance State Reporter) for PurefitRadio.com and I write for AmateurEndurance.com. I'm just a regular guy that loves to run. Keeps me fit and sane. I've run for over 20 years - more seriously the past 8 or so. Love distance...
Working and having many hobbies leaves little time for exercise, so I do a little here and there from home. I'm trying to find time to get back into mountain biking. In the past, I have raced prototype and production Specialized bikes. I just got a membership to Planet Granite, so i will try to go there once or twice a week. I also like longboarding (skateboarding) and racing cars.
I'm a Ph.D. student in the ME department. I'm on the Stanford Club Hockey Team, I'm an instructor in the Stanford Windsurfing Club, and I was part of the Stanford Student Golf Club when it was active, but it's become inactive lately.
