I will be out of town camping until Saturday afternoon.  I will try to get some runs in out in the woods.  In the meantime please refrain from meaningless comments on my blog.

Thank you.

That just sounded like an invitation to make meaningless comments on your blog!! Been so busy I have been able to blog-our office moved, got a new boss and tons of work!

From Mauri on Wed, Jul 13, 2011 at 22:10:13 from 174.27.95.153

I ran in 90 degree weather today and thought of you in Ariz. Crazy to run in the heat!

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 03:15:17 from 71.35.48.102

A day with out Burt is like a day without ... well, Burt

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 03:15:58 from 71.35.48.102

If a Burt runs and sweats in the woods and there is no one there to high-five, did he really run?

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 03:16:43 from 71.35.48.102

I wonder if they will have a shower on the camping trip?

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 03:17:01 from 71.35.48.102

I wonder if their tent is Haboob-proof?

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 03:17:19 from 71.35.48.102

I wonder what they are doing right now??

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 03:18:31 from 71.35.48.102

So, do you think Burt misses us?

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 03:21:04 from 71.35.48.102

From JulieC on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 08:17:19 from 70.56.108.123

actually I take that back, I have a meaningful comment--- I think that both Bonnie and I should feel privledged that we are SECONDARY favorite blogs. Since we didn't make YOUR top 20. But I know deep down its just that you just can't handle our blogs!! We write such meaningful things that you wouldn't have time for other blogging.

All right you turkeys. I haven't left yet! I'm not so much worried about my inbox as I am Squirrel's. My inbox is healthy and robust. And I don't see me in your fave five Julie!

From Squirrel on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 09:46:22 from 209.175.175.238

Awww, good morning everyone.

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 11:06:03 from 71.35.48.102

I wonder what they are doing now?

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 11:07:45 from 71.35.48.102

I never actually saw the need to put Burt in my favorites list since his blog is almost always linked over in the "Recent Comments" section.

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 11:08:39 from 71.35.48.102

Since he has so many "followers" I did not think he needed any more visual validation of his popularity ... but, perhaps he does.

From Bonnie on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 11:08:55 from 71.35.48.102

so, I will include him on my next blog update.

From Merri on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 11:42:44 from 160.7.252.148

From Bec on Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 14:43:49 from 71.199.9.12

Have fun in the woods. It's easy to use the bathroom on runs when there is no toilet around. I speak from experience.

Every time I feel alone

And slightly blue

That's when I begin to think

It's what I'd like to start to do

And though it may not be the kind of thing

That's quite your cup of tea

I recommend you pay attention

To the little dance you're gonna see

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon

Dancing a little smidgeon of

The kind of ballet

Sweeps me away

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon

People may smile but

I don't mind

They'll never understand

The kind of fun I find

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon everyday

People may smile, but

I don't mind!

They'll never understand

The kind of fun I find

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon

Doin' the (coo, coo) pigeon everyday

I wonder if Burt if familiar with the School of Redundancy School.

From rAtTLeTrAp on Fri, Jul 15, 2011 at 21:12:08 from 24.22.239.183

Is that like the department of redundancy department? We have 2 of those where I work.

Interesting that those punctuation corrections also generate emails, huh?

From CookieLegs on Fri, Jul 15, 2011 at 21:43:04 from 71.32.239.13

Awe geesh, Burt, this is too funny to not comment on. Are you even going to read all these comments? :)

Of course Burt will read them, he was expecting something like this ... hence why he begged us to do it:

and I quote ... "In the meantime please refrain from meaningless comments on my blog"

If that wasn't a cry for ultimate blogness I don't know what is

I am jealous, however, of seeapril run ... after all the time I spent over here I really wanted to be 100 or 1000 ;-)

I was singing Beatles songs for Burt, that HAS to count for something.

Burt spelled backwards is "trub" as in "truble".

From allie on Sat, Jul 16, 2011 at 13:48:30 from 24.10.191.18

burt rearranged is "turb" as in "turbulence" as in "havoc" as in "uproar" as in "run2day" as in "sweaty" as in "cat"

From JD on Sat, Jul 16, 2011 at 13:50:11 from 71.37.100.47

...as in dis"turb"ing.

From ChrisM on Sun, Jul 17, 2011 at 12:05:05 from 86.10.81.85

Burt in the buff with the runs in the woods?!?!?

Shocking.

From Burt on Sun, Jul 17, 2011 at 12:06:46 from 72.223.88.109

No, if they would have seen me out running in the buff in the woods, they would have thought it was a sasquatch. Unfortunately, no running for me. There were no showers and I wasn't going to subject the youth in my ward to my stinkiness.

From Bonnie on Sun, Jul 17, 2011 at 12:26:08 from 71.35.48.102

Is this a case of bad karma? I've been out of town for a week, too, and came back to 140 inbox messages, most of them "fast running blog comment replies" from Burt's page! Dangit!!!

I just read all of these comments- I wish I could "like" them! I seriously must have had way more than 140.... here's another one...

Can someone tell me how to make my blog private?

From Dan on Sun, Jul 17, 2011 at 22:54:09 from 24.209.83.20

Sure thing Burt- From what I understand if you post your blog link on facebook AND twitter- it goes private. Strange, but they say truth is stranger than fiction.

From Squirrel on Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 07:37:39 from 75.105.134.2

I have a running question, seriously....and you guys are the greatest runners and smartest peeps i know! So i have decided to stick a marathon in this year in october. I am up to 16 miles on long run. I noticed most programs have you do less miles ever 3rd or so long run, is that necessary or can i just keep adding a mile or two each weekend? Im doing a half in august so i will be losing a few weeks of long runs and im a bit worried about getting in enough miles. Thanks for your help!

From Burt on Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 11:27:33 from 72.223.88.109

I agree with RAD, although she had a slight breach in etiquette commenting on your blog instead. Your body does need the time to recover, so I would suggest doing a third week with less miles.

From rAtTLeTrAp on Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 11:40:02 from 75.244.37.253

Hey, does anybody know what Oprah's marathon PR is? I want to make sure I beat it this weekend. I hear she is really fast :)

From Squirrel on Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 12:40:47 from 209.175.175.238

Geez and I appreciated RAD for the help! I think RAD is my new best friend!!! OK, I am going to follow the advice--thank you!!
