I originally designed this blog in 2007 to write mostly about my running adventures (hence the name josuecorre “josue-runs”). Since then a lot of learning and experience has happened. This blog has been through Blogger, WordPress.com and now is self-hosted as WordPress.org, I promise not to change it anymore and to focus mainly on content.
I have had the idea to start collecting some of the stories from my childhood on a blog, but am reluctant to start another blog. Josuecorre.com is now a blog about my life, my running, my training, my stories and my goals. The blog is organized in a format with categories, which allows you to focus on the types of posts you want to read.
Most people may not know this, but my childhood stories would make Cheaper by the Dozen look like a relaxing dinner at the local wine bar. I have 13 siblings and grew up as a gypsy missionary, migrant worker kid in Mexico, Central America and all over the USA/Canada.
As a few examples, I was born on the floor of a migrant worker home in Burbank, CA, one of my sisters was born in a bread truck under a fire tower in the woods of Mississippi, another sister born in the mountains of Costa Rica. From living in small villages in Mexico, Amish communities in the northeastern US, to house cults run by a man named Ronald McDonald (no joke), the journey has been a colorful one.
We are now spread out all over the place and have become everything under the sun, from geologists, to teachers, to ultra runners, to business managers.
I look forward to writing about my life as I hope you enjoy reading about it.
-Josue
