| | I wanted to run this afternoon. Then I thought it would be best to wait 'til morning. Then my wife reminded me that I needed to take Clash of the Titans back to RedBox. So I decided a couple of miles wouldn't hurt. Kept it nice and slow. Tonight reminded me why I hardly ever blow snotrockets. I don't want to talk about it. Time - 19:35 (avg. pace 9:49) Splits - 9:56, 9:42

| | I felt a lot better this morning. Still I kept it slow. My Lady Liberty wasn't there this morning, but I did get a patriotic slap to the face by an American flag. I should watch where I'm going. Then when I turned the corner onto Southern I saw a different Lady Liberty, but this was a young African American dude. He didn't look all that happy to be there and seemed to be living inside his mind. As soon as I put my hand up for a high five I could see in his eyes that he had come back to reality, and he knew right away how it important it was to reciprocate that high five; a high five to let freedom ring. I continued on and saw a lady crossing the street by the canal. She had a pretty big dog. I wondered if I could beat her by staying on the street while she cut across along the canal. She beat me. But she had to wait to cross the road again and I went to pass her. I told her good job and put my hand out for a five. She nervously gave me a five back, and her dog got a little protective. I won't be doing that again. Time - 47:48 (avg. pace 8:41) Splits - 8:49, 8:32, 8:33, 8:48, 8:43, 4:25

5 out of 6 of my Ragnar van came for the group run/van meeting. We met at a central location which happens to be the Ragnar course finish line at Tempe Town Lake. Glen and I ran together. We ran twice around the lake. We started out pretty fast. But after two and a half miles I saw a portajohn and made good use of it. Glen was kind enough to wait for me. That gave Shannon and Michael a chance to catch up. We passed them again in quick order. I think they ended up running about 6 miles. We saw Liz on the backside. Not sure how far she went, but we all got a good workout in. Then we made assignments, and now everyone's excited for the big race in two weeks!
