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: |

Early monring run, beating the heat, 14 miles along the JRP, got hot towards the end, very few runners today, maybe two, a few walkers, a few bikers. I was irritated going south, very little shade, they have yanked many of the junk treeds with no replacement trees, I guess maybe good in the long run, but it really makes the look of the pakway crappy.
Going north seen 3 guys fishing in the dark, I think they are transients living along the river in the warm weather, kindof creepy, had my pepper spray.
Rode 44 miles on the bike, good 80% effort, 20 mph pace. Legs feel good and have adapted well to the longer workouts.
