This past Saturday we decided to run the Butterfly Boogie 10k benefiting World Craniofacial Foundation. The course ran through Katy Trail, which was my first time visiting that part of Dallas. The weather was great and overall it was a great event. My time was pretty decent and I felt great after the race. A few more week of training and I should be able to tackle a half marathon. My official time was:

77 10K: M 25-29 00:47:42

The cool thing was that I came in 77th overall in the 10k. :-) Not too shabby.

As some of you know I like to run. I have a 10k race this weekend and I’ve been preparing and hope to kick some butt. Now, one thing that comes with running is shoes. I never really thought that shoes played that big of a part in running. Yes, running in high heels might not be conducive to a good time, but for the most part most athletic shoes always seemed alright for running. That is until I started buying actual running shoes. Below you will find my last three pairs of shoes. All of them Asics.

At 7 o’clock you have the 2100s, at 12 o’clock you have the 2120s, and at 4 o’clock you have my newest pair, the 2130s. These shoes are by far my favorite running shoes, light, great comfort, etc. However, one thing I don’t like is the new look. These shoes are getting more reflective and closer to a women’s style of shoe. I can’t really explain it, but the moment I saw them I knew I didn’t like the look of them. Specially compared to the 2120s, which I love. On a side note, my parents hated my 2120s, saying they looked like girl shoes. Maybe my parents were on to something.

Enjoy your run through life.

Well, HTC had promised to release a ROM update for the Mogul early Q1 2008. Well, it’s late Q1 2008 and we have ourselves a new ROM. So far, this is the fastest link to the ROM coming from the Sprint servers Link. All the instructions you will need will be found here. Finally, I recommend you check out the read me once you start installation. It has a bunch of great screen shots. I’ve had around 12 hours of usage with this ROM so far and it seems a lot better. Finally got GPS working with Google Maps. The keyboard seems a lot more responsive and the volume seems louder. So far so good.

A few screen shots of my upgrade process:
