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: |

| 4100 South parkway loop. Easy, Easy does it. Took my dog Sammy for a 2 mile easy run, she pooped out big time, too hot for her at 85, stopped are tried to get her to drink water a couple of times. Anyway ran another mile at a nice smooth 7 min pace after dropping Sammy at home. Hope to complete 4 x 1 miles at 6:45 at lunch tomorrow. B of BS Rools out. |

| 4100 south loop river parkway. *Note, legs felt good this morning, ran about a 7:50 pace vs. a normal easy run of 8:15. Maybe some of the training is starting to pay off. 1 x 1 mile at 6:44 pace, 3/4 mile at 6:44 pace, warmup and cooldown. I need more of these type of repeats to improve my 5k time. Sylvia went for a ten mile run today, our dog, Sammy refused to go, it was too hot. Who's the boss? |
