Easy 8 miles today.  No time recorded, just ran. I really wish I had a decent bio pic to post but I don't yet. Oh well.. 

As of today I am officially 39 yrs old and less than one year from masters eligibility on the roads.  A kind of sobering but also exciting thought at the same time. Wow.. I feel so blessed and gratetful to the Lord to be able to still run like this. Words just can not adequately express how I feel today for some reason..   I did find out however that I am now eligible for masters track racing.   Look into that one sometime and see whats coming up this year.  :)

Happy Birthday, young man! So, I have one more year to not have to compete with you for AG/Master's awards...better make this year count!

Don't worry, turning 40 was not bad. In fact, it was good as I feel like a better person now that when I was 25.

Thanks Jeff, You know I feel the same way about 25 vs 40 also. Better runner but better person too. Look forward to running with you at Utah Valley hopefully. Are you coming again this year?

Not planning on running UVM this year. I am running Ogden again this year instead.

Have a good day!
