procrastinating

so i'm supposed to be finishing my final project for my degree course in health science but as usual i'm trying my best not to do it?
went out for a run this morning and i'm convinced that the next running shoes i get will have to minimalist or barefoot type shoes, since my unknown knee injury i'm running completely , i land fairly flat with no heel strike. this seems to be something that my body has started to do on its own. i noticed it when i started back a few weeks ago. but it was only yesterday that i heard about barefoot running. im looking at getting a pair of merrell trail glove http://www.merrell.com/UK/en-GB/Product.mvc.aspx/23456M/70130/Mens/Barefoot-Run-Trail-Glove?dimensions=0 anyone else wear them , or have any tips.
      I'm also trying to teach a three year old how to use a swing on her own , tips for that aswell please.

the start.

So this is the start, what do people usually write about? i don't know! i have never even read a blog before never mind wrote one.
 So here it is , my name is diarmuid and i live in the west of ireland in a beautiful place called achill island. im married to siobhan and we have a beautiful  daughter called lillie who is 3 and a half, and another on the way. I have spent the last ten years working as an outdoor instructor on achill. for five years i was a volunteer with the mayo mountain rescue and i currently volunteer with the achill order of malta.
                   So what am i into, I like to surf, shoot, fish,mountain bike, kayak (occasionally) and i have recently started training for my first marathon, which i hope to do this time next year, I'm in no way a runner , i tried it a few years ago and done in my knee so this is me starting again. at the minute i'm running for 15 mins about 3 times a week im starting to build up my time and distance. www.mapmyrun.com/account/my_profile
