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.

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: |

Great morning for a 4:20 a.m. run, perfect temps. Nothing special about the run, except, seen a beaver on the the trail jumping into the water as I approached. First time I have seen the beaver for some time. Hopefully, master's swimming tonight or spinning.
Spin 29 miles, good effort, 150 ball crunch curls with weights.

Spinning, 24 miles - would be torture without the IPOD. Attempting this week to move my running miles and cross training converted miles to plus 60 for the week, time to tack on endurance for the marathon coming up and 15 mile trail race in August. My training approach is a hybrid, running 10 or 12 miles with biking 30 or 40 miles the same time, hopefully get the workout benefit of a long run without doing a long run, save those knees for the races. Another workout later today - 17 miles on the parkway.
