HUMP DAY MUSINGS....

1st things first...8 miles 1:16:40 2 x 3 miles repeats tempo, 1/2 mile rest, 1 1/2 mile warm up.

I am almost always sore after a run, no matter the distance, but I never feel bad after a run.

Gas prices and the proprietors who set them are the root of all evil.

Being a parent is much, much harder than running a marathon.

Being a parent is much, much more rewarding than running a marathon.

Training the mind is much, much harder than training the body.

Is there anything better than vanilla ice cream after a long run?

If I had to do it all over again I would have become a Veterinarian.

I like keeping track of the miles when I drive and saying, "I could run that".

I like being slightly cold more than being slightly hot.

Having your back scratched by your child is the absolute best!!

Running with someone, even if you don't talk, is better than running alone.

Fundraising is harder the second time around.

Being a husband is much, much harder than running a marathon.

Almost as many people vote for the winner of American Idol as do for the president...

And the margin is getting smaller.

Lastly, there is nothing better than watching a child sleep.

R.P.D.

P.S.
Good luck to all of you heading off to Chicago this weekend, Tim and Al especially. Here's to PR's and good times had by all!!
