Mid morning run at just below 7 minute average pace.  Worked out some frustrations about not being at the races this weekend.

Now heading out for the season opener waterski day!

That's a bummer that you won't make the race. Where can you waterski at this time of the year? I hope you have a dry suit.

That's just about exactly what we did Steve. Too bad you couldn't join us.

Fritz, I was really looking forward to it. It's hard to make those choices sometimes. It helped to get out skiing though! We had to use the boat as an icebreaker for an hour to clear a ski path. I put some pics on FB.

Rob, I saw that. You guys took it home much faster however. I sure wished I lived closer to you guys
