Personal:

I'm married to Nan Kennard and she kicks my butt at running.  She has beat me handily in every race we have done together except for a downhill mile we did once.  She is my running inspiration.  I'd like to run a marathon with her someday and actually keep up.

Easy 7 miles with Brendan around Buffalo Ranch before he headed out to pace Nick Clark at Hard rock.  I'm stoked to see how that race goes down this weekend.  I'm jealous of Brendan and his pacing duties for Nick down there.

Very nice barefoot cruise for an hour around the bike paths.  Summer is awesome!  Tomorrow I have nothing on the schedule...i'm thinking in honor of all those hard rockers I'm going to drag my own butt up a 14er in the morning.

Ran most of the way up longs peak today. It was a really nice run. Decided not to go to the summit because I got really cold at the Keyhole as it was windy, cold, and I had just a wet t-shirt and shorts on.

Ended up with about 13 miles and 3800' vertical in about 3 and a half hours of running.  Slow and easy, stopping to enjoy the scenery a bunch and chat with a few people.
