6.500.000.00

6.5 ? miles this morning with my Ragnar Team.  It was awesome.  Everyone met up at my house at 5am and headed down to the bottom of the hill to run back to my house.  Because of my fractured pelvis (back in November), I decided to shorten my distance a little bit to avoid further injury.  My friend, Bethany, and I started at the 3.5-ish mile and ran with Burt the rest of the way to my house.  It was a real nice morning.  After the run we had breakfast, and then everyone went on to their daily activities.  I'm thinking my daily activity today will be to rest...  if that's possible with 10 14-15 year olds in my back yard making knives (scouts are fun!).

Nice run--10 teenagers in the back yard with knives!? Sounds scary!

Thanks for hosting the run this morning. I personally had a great time. Everything was yummy, but the fruit salad really hit the spot. I can't believe we forgot to bless the food.

P.S. I passed gas in your kitchen. Sorry.

Hey thanks for the welcome! Legs are hurting today surprisingly, i may try to ice bath a little later on and see if that helps.

How fun! I will do any run where I get to eat after wards!

Hope the scouts did not cut anything or anyone!

Nope, but very weird... when I got home from work today (yep, you read that right... I got a job and started today)... I noticed there is a jacket hanging in our palm tree out front. It doesn't belong to Brandon or me, so I'm assuming it belongs to one of the boys.

This group of boys didn't have a very good attention span for the knives (unlike the last group of boys Brandon had). So they ended up playing wiffle ball in our front yard, which I'm certian drove my neighbor crazy.

Yeah on the JOB!!!! YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!

I think it is probably good that they did not have an attention span for the knives, VERY GOOD!

The last group of boys where here for mutural every wednesday and saturday for a month or so making knives. They loved it. Infact, I believe one of them made a pirate sword. LOL

YES... I'm SO EXCITED about my new job.

From Kelli on Mon, Feb 09, 2009 at 19:09:01

Tell us about the new job!!

From Camille on Mon, Feb 09, 2009 at 19:09:51

I'll post it on today's log (though I haven't run yet...) give me just a few mins.
