Are you busy making progress or making excuses? #GGW http://t.co/OdmDnjDC

Thanks to @shawnachor for inspiring my new happiness habit! http://t.co/fSFD07ud

@darcrunner Thanks so much for the well wishes! Had a great time in DC! The 26.2 tried to get the best of me, but I did it! (Whew!)

Full flight back to BOS. Still, it's great to be going home! Think I'll set some shiny new goals on the way. Stay tuned! #KAED

My legs were feeling better after the marathon, and then I flew coach. Annie Wilkes took better care of me.

You know you're a frequent traveler when you read the same in-flight magazine last week. (And it sucked then, too.)

Accomplished a major life goal today. Finished the Maine Corps Marathon in just under 5 hours. Thanks for all the support! You rock! #KAED

Name for a chocolate lab puppy: Mr. Mojo Rising (Mojo). Love it or hate it?

Had a great 15 mile run today. Loving the taper part of the program! Uploaded some photos from the run for friends not on the Cape. #KAED!

Rain held off during my 20-mile run this morning. I'm definitely in the best running shape of my life. Bring on the marathon! #KAED

Had a great time at Harvard's "Institute of Coaching" conference this weekend, and just finished an 18-mile run. #KAED x2!

[Matthew Poepsel @MightyMattyP]

Did a 16-miler @5AM. I used to be intimidated by these distances. Felt great today! Lesson: Get going and deal with fear/doubt later. #KAED

[Matthew Poepsel @MightyMattyP]

Just finished a 15+ miler. The + came when I got lost in Hyannisport. Feeling great and ready to keep on #KAED!

[Matthew Poepsel @MightyMattyP]

8 mile run this morning - made pretty good time, too! Time for coffee and brekkie, then it's off to make holiday plans with the fam. #KAED

[Matthew Poepsel @MightyMattyP]

14 mile run this morning. 4 women, 2 young girls and an older gentleman with a dog were each very polite when they passed me! #KAED

I'm listening to Barry Manilow's "Copa Cabana". Does that make me a bad person? I mean really ... she lost her love. That's hardcore, right?

[Matthew Poepsel @MightyMattyP]

Resting up after an early morning 13-mile run. Thanks again to @jimhill for joining me! #KAED

[Matthew Poepsel @MightyMattyP]

Ran my longest run ever this morning - 11 miles! Still feeling good and looking forward to 26.2 on 10/25 in DC. #KAED

[Matthew Poepsel @MightyMattyP]

Just ran a 6-mile "Kenyan Outback". Moderate tempo on the way out, fast on the way back. (Quotation fingers "fast", not Kenyan fast.) #KAED
