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: |

Late night with kids, fireworks, fun - got a late start this morning, hotter than I expected, trudged out the 10 miles, had to do it, required running, time to start the build up to STG, 12 next week and so on. My feet are tired from running on the dirt, ran about 90% off the trail in the dirt to reduce impact, tough running, don't know how those ultra trail runners do it, have much respect. Sylive is our running somewhere on the parkway as I blog, Roxie is running with her.

Commute miles 27 - riding thru sprinklers on along the trail and racoons along the trail. This is the first commute ride in a couple of years and the trail was closed due to Trax construction. Enjoyed the early morning ride, not the spinklers or the raccoons.

Early morning run, north along the parkway to 45th south, heading home, at 53rd, could hear runners behind me talking and running, I could hear them catching me, they were likely running about 7:45 to 8 min miles, it somewhat irrated me that runners could pass me talking like crazy, they pulled along side, it was Mark, Riverton Paul and another former blogger. Well, I was not irrated when they said hi, they are in great shape. Mark or Paul said T NA NA was coming along behind, did not see her. Anyway, always good to see bloggers, wish I could have ran with them for a few miles. I did pass three ladies running, so even road kill for the day.
yard sales -bought a weight set for $5, for my step son, 150 lbs of steel weights and bar, bought a women's langeire dresser, fixed a handle, teak oil, looks great, will use it to get my running and biking clothes organized. Best deal of the day, $1 sun glasses polorized, we each bought 5 pair, kool glasses that normall sell at expos for $20 or $30.
Bike ride along the parkway on commutter bike with armadillo tires, kept on the pedals, simulate 20 mph effort, nice ride.
