Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

Met the group at Bingham at 5:45.  It was a pretty nice day, warm, and I didn't really notice any wind, which was so disappointing.  I had planned some hill work, then some other running.   I thought it was fun, and I felt pretty good, not sick like I had been.   As long as we get our miles in, and also get in some fast running, I think it's been a successful day.  I did go talk to Bingham's assistant principal later, and he said he's pretty sure we'll be able to use the track, he just needs to get final approval from the principal.  So we can still call ourselves the Bingham Butt-Kickers.  We won't have to change our name to the Riverton rear end kickers or anything like that.

Later, I played my usual Tuesday night basketball.

Oh, I like that name better. Would that mean I would not have to drive as far? Maybe I will make a little phone call myself!

Thanks for the great workout, I really enjoyed the VARIETY all in one day. I was BEAT by the end.

I know Riverton High would be closer for several in the group, but Bingham has a brand spanking new track/football field. It will be fun to run on. I'm glad you liked the workout, I kind of have ADD and need lots of variety in what we do. Hard for me to stay focused on just one long run.

The Bingham track is nice and soft, it is worth the drive when and if they ever let us on it!
