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: |

Pool running today, 3 hours, converted to 12 miles running. 30 min. elip and 30 excercise bike. Colleen joined me for 1 hr 20 min. of the pool running, lazy river. The south Davis Rec. center is a great facility. My entertainment during the water world adventure, 70 to 90 years olds doing water areobics. It was quite an odd morning, my next friday long workout will either be running, bionic B of BS Rools, or on the bike.

Rode 18 miles with Sylvie as her moving Sag Wagon today. It was fun to ride and chat with all the runners doing long runs. Sylive had a very good first 9 and struggled the last 6. We had a yard sale today with Sylive's son running the show. Sylvie took about a 90 minute break between the first and second half of the run to setup, mistake, it was hot and her legs were beat from carrying stuff. We made a big $29 and took the rest to DI.
A couple of things to note, talked to Demettero, for quite a few minutes. He is fun to chat with as we talk about our old running days in Magna and gab about common running buddies.
Second thing, a runner I have seen for years, SLC Track club member, buddy of Olaf, waved at him as he went by. He stopped, looked like he just ran a 100 miler. I gave him my full bottle of Power Aide to drink, he was quite grateful.
Recovery from 3 hours of pool running is nothing compared to 3 hours of running on the road.
