Keep running and family balanced and be as fit as I can so I can run and play with the family.

Happily married for some time......5 great kids that overachieve in whatever they choose to do.

Nice day or rather morning for a run. Working a swing shift later today for a fellow worker. I looked at my schedule and was somewhat excited about this run. I opened up my spreadsheet and looked at the numbers and had to take a second look....IJR did such a great job with this, but I noticed I had 6 miles to record for the tempo run....what? I thought it was 5 so I thought I better run the 6. Well, I glanced over it too quickly, it was 5.... oh well I got an extra mile in tempo pace. I'm so studpid!

Nice run Rye! I knew you would like this tempo pace and distance.

Sorry, I think I messed you up on the distance. I ocasionally tack on a little the the end of these workouts if I feel I can.

I'm not looking forward to our long run, it's so hot and humid here I really get drained after about an hour.

When will you run your long run?

IJR I hope that it goes better than last weeks run. I'll be running in the morning. You would love the mornings in Idaho. 40 to 50 degrees and very little wind. Drink lots of water! So, I think you can count your roping as cross training. That looks pretty intense! Tell me about which hammer products you use?

You guys are both overachievers! Nice tempo Rye, perfect little progression as well.

Slowjoe... I'm not sure what IJR got me into. Atleast he is suffering along with me.

"Overachievers", you're one to talk SlowJoe! Look at where you were a year or so ago, now you're a 2:?? hour marathoner!
