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!

It was a bit of a  struggle to get going this morning.  Peggy and Debbie had made plans to run at 6:00am, I hadn't committed, so I had an easy way out.  I got out of bed at 5:15 and was sorely, sorely tempted to return to it, but I made myself get ready.  Once I was out and running, as is almost always the case, I was glad I had not given in to temptation!  We ran along the canal road for most of it, we added some street running in at the end.  I'm not sure of the pace, but I went for 1:12, so I'm counting that as 7 miles.  We did see Cheris, she was in the middle of a 13 miler and she looked good.  I'm glad I got the miles in.

I was in the same mood this morning! I got up at 515 and went to riverton track. I was going to ask you how the track is progressing at Bingham. I just live up the street from it on 3200 w. and 104th. there is alot of equipment there and I thought they would be done by now. Im sure Ive bumped into you and your friends before I run up by daybreak and down around 9800 south to the canal by marv jensens gym and even down around Parkway palisades, which I think ive seen you on. You and Cheris have great goals. Good luck im sure you'll do fine.
