I haven’t been to any Run Clubs this year. I complain about my ankle and knee but those are just lame excuses. I can still run even if not as fast as I want.
This Q slot was open so picked it up to hang out with Radio FLyer as Site Q. This is the hardest time of year for me. New Years resolutions are not fresh anymore, and even though this group is probably pretty good about keeping up with our goals, it’s not fun by mid February. The period from mid Feb to spring break sucks. Then is starts getting warmer and lighter out. Let’s take time to refocus during the next 6 weeks as it is important to accelerate all year long. Thanks to all the PAX for pushing me today…you all helped me and each other get better today.
Prayers for Big Gong..we are with you brother. And to all the families and kids as we navigate the chaos that is going on at schools. In the end, we can all agree that the kids need to have a positive experience and it’s really about them

Nice seeing a big group today and a few PAX that I haven’t seen in a while, and Brooks and Twinning made 3 in row….Nice work gusy! My plan of picking up the slower PAX worked pretty well. I was expecting to be one of those but was feeling good today.
Envious of Baby Hands trip to the Waste Management Open this weekend. Will be looking for you on TV. Have fun!
Good mumblechatter and coffeeteria afterward. I’m feeling good going into the next 6 weeks!
