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: |

Not feeling well this morning, Sylvie encourgaged, drug me, to Insta Care for the first time every, got some codine and anti-biotics, hope it kicks this thing quick. Rode 44 miles on the spin bike, 150 ball crunches with 20lb weights pull form behind head, 2 sets flys, 2 sets bench, 2 sets curls, 2 sets slant bench pull ups, and 6 one minute wall squats. My quads were a little sore from all the hard downhill trail running yesterday, they feel better spinning them out. I have more and more respect for trail runners, tough trails ahead. *Note, met a nice lady at the insta care, Calli, running her 6th marathon next month and biking with her husband from Salt Lake to Omaha to raise money for an adoption, wish we would have had more time to chat.

Good hard spin, lunch break, 12 miles at 22mph. Gave commando points to the Mexican Moutain Goat. After work, 30 miles spin, spin high cadence, try and get the soreness out of the quads, did help.
