Fallout 3 First Impressions, or Why I Am Very Old
Can you have First Impressions on a game you have already spent 30 hours on? Absolutely. Though it must be a role playing game.

My next major event is chosen: Philadelphia Half Marathon
It is in November. So I have over 6 months to train for this one. This time, I’m breaking 1:55. I am going to modify the plan used for Miami with some things I think will work better for me. And I’m going to rock that thing.
