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: |

Brick, 3 x 5s
Swim 1.111 miles - converted to 5.555 running miles
Spin Bike - 21 miles - converted to 5.15 running miles
Run - 5.25 miles along, JRP to 4500 and home, wind from the south coming home, not many on the parkway to day. Seen something old, a hill billy looking guy carrying two racoons from by the under pass, river, at 4500 south, he looked at me funny, I wonder if it is legal to trap racoons? I have often wondered the last couple of years, what has happened to the foxes, skunks, deer, racoons, etc along the river, too many people looking habitat? Not as many ducks either?

Hum, only running buddies to the rescue, Tony (100 mile ultra runner), Brett (has ran 50 marathons) and Diana (Ironman), convinced me to go on a lunch time run with them. It was like old times, fun talking about some of the runs we have done together, time flys, wow, 15 to 20 years knowing and running with all of them. It was nice of them to run my pace, ran along the JRP going north of North temple. Very happy they got me out for a run.
Spin 30 miles, 7.5 cross training miles, man do I miss running like the old days.
Stay Kool, b of BS Rools out, good to have running buddies. |
