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: |

Nordic Track - 3 hours, coverted to 12 miles run.
Marathon Potty - Appropriate for a day after the marathon, what marathoners have quads so sore, that setting on the toilet, means hovering, aiming and dropping to the seat. Sylvie told this to our massage theripists yesterday, they got quite a laugh.

Dry Ground - Lunch Time - 30 minutes excercisse bike and 1/2 mile on the treadmill, 8 min mile pace. I wish that I could say the knee was ready to go. This will be a slow comeback process. Also, hamstring curls, abductors, bench press.

Meltdown is slowing down, can only live in the now, Ekhart. Talked to my two girls, Shana, my youngest daughter gave some sound advice, find a new passion, get buff, lift weights. I may not become a buff weight lifter, but, a new passion shall emerge. Sylvie has been real supportive, thinks that I will run again. Joy in life must quickly return and look forward. I really do miss the blog already. Although most of the runners are much younger, many of them has great attitudes about life and running.
Last note, get out of my pitty pot and get busy, did all the supporting exercies this evening. I am going to ride the moutain bike 20 easy miles in the morning.
