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!

I had a fun day working out on the treadmill.  It was fun because I put no expectations on myself, I just said I would walk and run at whatever speed I wanted for however long I wanted.  I ended up staying on for just over an hour.  I feel like some endurance is coming back.  Sickness monitor:  a little sick, not too bad.  Maybe next week I'll feel totally better.

Here is for hoping for next week. And I like those runs the best---the ones with zero expectations, just running to run.

Yea for running just to run. Why don't we do more of that?

I do not know, but I sure enjoyed running more when it was just to run (and burn calories so I could eat more).

Today was NICE!!! THANKS for guiding us!
