Where did I go for the past 5 months?

Well it certainly has been a while since I’ve blogged.  I appreciate the concern about why I’ve stopped.  There are five main reasons why I've been MIA.

1 – The last blogging I was doing was about the most inspirational people in my life.  I was really enjoying that but eventually it ran into really, really busy time of the year for me and something had to give.  I hope to pick that project up again sometime because there are certainly a lot of people in my life I want to give credit to.  Once I lost the rhythm of writing those stories every week it has been hard to get motivated to start back up.  I’m sure I will get that going again.

2 – I also did quite a bit of traveling this summer, most memorably a trip to Iceland for a couple weeks, and I just wanted to unplug for a while.  I did put some videos/pics on Twitter of that trip so if you wanna see some incredible stuff it’s out there.  If you want to get away from it all, I recommend a trip to Iceland.  It’s not that far away and you’ll be amazed that a place like that exists on this planet.

3 – And now that the school year has started back up I’m busy with the regular grind of the year.  I’m sure I will get back to some regular blogging but, if/when I do, I want to make sure it’s original and interesting to read.

4 – I write a weekly email that is very blog-like about our track and field team.  If you want on that list just email me at jwise@goshockers.com and I’ll put you on the list.

5 – I tend to get lazy sometimes. 

In case you’re curious, I still watch a lot of movies (currently going alphabetically through all 481 dvd’s I own on a nightly basis).  I am the host of a new online show about our track team called On Pace.  I’m super excited about the 2017-18 track season and our first year in the American Conference (Outdoor Championships back near home in Cincinnati in May!).

My mom had to evacuate her home in Florida for Hurricane Irma.  But as she said, “Don’t worry about me, I’ve been through this before and know what to do.”  It’s the same thing when people ask me about tornadoes in Kansas! 

I’m not sure what or when I’ll blog again but I’m sure I’ll get back to it soon!  Until then you’ll have to settle for following me on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, SnapChat, text or, ya know, just talk to me in person.


Thanks and Go Shocks!
