Still not feeling 100%. Did 6 miles at lunch on the TM. As usual this time of the year some dude that hasn't run or been to the gym since this time last year (New Year's resolution) wants to prove how fast he can run to the world. Each time I would increase the speed he would top it. I didn't bite and did my own thing. He was gone after a brief 2.5 miles, exhausted and frustrated that I was still running.

Av. Pace: 8:31

Planning on another 4 miles after work.

4 uneventful miles on the TM after work. Av pace: 8:15. Felt better than the noon run.

Welcome back to your beautiful daughter (I remember those pictures!!) I bet everyone is glad she is home. Did she love it?

Nice runs this week!! I am really glad that i go to a small gym, we did not see an influx of people this week. BUT the firemen workout at our gym and they are notorious for that kind of behavior. I kick their butts every time, I totally get sucked into it.

Hope you are back to 100% soon!

Nice job Lyman. That is pretty funny about the guy on the TM? That has happen to me a few times. Hope you feel better soon.

Hey Kelli. Samantha did love it. Its amazing how much she grew while she was in Argentina. She spent every weekend building homes for poor families. It really changed her perspective on life in many. I'm very proud of her.

Vinh - knee all good now? I read you are trying to get down to 135 lbs. That is very light for I guy your heigth. But it will make you faster.

Oh man ... I am laughing so so so hard!!! LOVE your gym story. Do you know what it reminds me of? Did you see "Spirit of the Marathon?" Remember when that guy is showing off on the treadmill ... demonstrating how fast the elites run? And then, next thing you know, he is injured and can't even run it. His wife did though!!! :)

Very nicely done!!!

Teena - I haven't seen that movie. And I thought I've seen all the movies that are running related. I'll have to rent it the weekend.
