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: |

Easy Day -mini brick - Ran to the never bear and home, strange overcast windy day. Days like this, lonely long distant runner, people disapear from the trail, can often run miles without signs of another runner. The witchy wind still blows as I write this entry, the branches of the big glow willow swing wildly.
spin bike 28 miles, sore behind, 2 sets bench, move the weight up another 5 lbs, long time coming, finally hit 12 reps on the first set, slant board pullups, flys, 120 ball crunches with 20lb overhead weights.
Time for laundry and football. Roxie just licked my arm, sweet dog.
