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 met the group at Peggy's house at 5:45am.  The group was just a little smaller than it's been lately.  Several, such as Kelli and Britta, are battling injuries.  We missed you guys!  Anyway, Peggy had a clever workout planned, the only problem was none of us could quite figure out how to do it right.  It had something to do with throwing gloves into a pile, and then exchanging gloves, and then exchanging partners, and then running in different directions.  It was too early in the morning for our brains to follow it all.  But I liked the idea of trying to think of something to do that was a little diferent.  We eventually just all grouped together and ran over to Y Worry Lane by the temple.  We had a fun political discussion.  Everybody seems to think about the same, so that made it nice, nobody to challenge our beliefs, we liked that.  I was just a little draggy this morning and once again ran a little faster than I really wanted, but it was fun to be out with the group.

Sounds fun, too bad we missed it! I will be there next week, just running SLOW.

Political discussion and I missed it? Oh man! Can't wait to see the group on Tuesday. It has been way to long.
