The transistion to the back of the pack has not been easy, but, acceptance, stay in the game, root for others, enjoy the rest of the journey. Another off the bucket list second = Provo Half IM - have done 6 open water Tris and 6 pool Tris. Gave the STG IM a good Tri, hope to take another shot at the IM.

Personal: BSRools, the B stands for Brent and the S for Sylvie. The Rools come from my personal running rools over the years: Never complain once the run starts, allways pick up the pace into the wind and always pick up the pace on a hill. If someone whines, pick up the pace. Once a goal is set, no whining, regardless of setbacks. We were running when running was not Kool. Kool comes from a race story, ran my first race, 5K wearing a "beanie that had "Kool Aid Kid" Favorite Blogs: |

Run up West Canyon, with Sylvie and Roxie, ran more today than speed walk, coming back. The weather was great, felt like high 50s. No other runners on the trail. The Kankle is a little sore. The STG half will not be fast, but can finish.

cold windy run today wtih Sylvie, up Snow Canyon, glad we got out, chilly, chilly, we seen no one on the trail. It seemed kinda spooky, there is an area about 3 miles up the trail where you can here the echo of your own foot steps. Ran more than speed walked today, Kankle getting a little better each day. The Masters swim coach at Shac asked me to come to a masters swim meet tomorrow, she has not seem me swim. IMCZ planning is going well, signed up for bike transport and called a couple of travel agencies.
Sylive ran 10 today, I know that I can at least finishe the STG half next saturday, I may be the last to finish, but, I will finish.
