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: |

| Spin, 44.4 miles, take time off, pay for the comeback, will take a couple of weeks to get back in the groove. good workout, 100 ball crunches with 20lb weight, 4 x 1 minute wall squats, curls, flys, slant board pullups, bench, 200 rubber band swim pulls, abs, etc. Starting to get my mojo back, without powers. I need majic powers, hopefully back to 8 miles running on friday. Stay Kool, B of Bs Rools out |

Good luck to all those bloggies running UVA, will be there in spirit.

Nice to get out for a run, headed north along JRP, hit the dirt trail and ran down to 4500 south and home. The underpass is floored at 45th, talked to a few runners, everyone said hi. Ride later today. We went to yard sales - bought books, hew horse shoe set, and a few other oddities.
Rode sag wagon with Sylvie for 5 miles, windy, nice to ride along, Sylvie did about 10 X .25 mile pickups during the run.
20 miles bike, good effort. Funny thing on the big, went by and older couple looking at the river, sang "Setting by the dock of the back watching the tide roll away as I rode by, got smile out of them.
