At the end of January I decided to make the switch to the Ghost blogging platform. I had heard good things about it and decided to move over to it. Well, this past week I decided I wanted to expand a bit more with how I blog and realized that Ghost really wasn&#39;t going to work for what I needed. Given that and my limited knowledge of node.js, I decided that I&#39;d be better served moving back to WordPress as my platform since I am familiar with PHP and its inner workings.
It wasn&#39;t an easy decision and I&#39;d be lying if I said that I wasn&#39;t second guessing myself, but for the moment, I&#39;m happy with where I&#39;m at. I backed up my Ghost install, database and all so if down the line I feel like Ghost would be better suited for what I&#39;m looking for, I should be able to move back with limited problems.
At the end of the day, this blog still gives me the space I need to express myself and that is what&#39;s most important.

Well, it&#39;s official, this November I will be running my first full marathon. On November 23, 2014 I will be running the Philadelphia Marathon.
Last year I ran the Philadelphia Half-Marathon which was a huge accomplishment for me and I&#39;m looking forward to pushing myself to the next level. 4 years ago I could barely run a mile and last year I was able to hit 13.1 miles. Now I get to see if I can run 26.2 miles.
The marathon will actually be the end of a big running year for me. I&#39;m going to be running the Broad Street Run in Philly (10 miles) and two half-marathons. I&#39;m looking forward to running all of these races and am really hoping to get in better shape.
Now to start training.
