Man life is short, but sweet for certain. Dave Mathews

As everyone knows by know, I commute to and from work either on foot or by bike, and therefore have met pretty much every runner/walker/biker in passing. Much to my chagrin, a fellow runner died while running yesterday in Chattanooga.

From the chattanoogan.com:
Popular County Engineer Mike Howard was jogging downtown Wednesday morning when he collapsed and died. A longtime YMCA football coach and assistant scoutmaster, the 56-year-old Howard was the father of six children ages seven to 35. Click to enlarge.
