Ha. Before I get totally consumed by my new playthings, here's today's pep card:

Pep Card: Day 27

In the sport of ultramarathoning, racers sometimes run a hundred miles or more at a stretch. The sport's king is dean Karnazes, an unlikely athlete who hadn't done any running until his dead-end life left him feeling so frustrated that he stripped down to his underwear and ran out into the night. He hasn't slowed down since, and now he can run more that 200 miles without stopping, On his training runs, he uses his cell phone to order pizza and cheesecake that are delivered (and consumed) while he's running. The lesson Dean offers monthlong novelists is clear: You can maintain focus and speed while wolfing down an oversized dessert item. Get on that cell phone, writer. Your cheesecake is long overdue.
