I will try and start to blog again, I have been busy with work and my church calling, then throw in time for family and the day is shot. So I will do my best.
Todays run took me up around the golf course, nice run but I don't like going off of daylight savings time. It's almost dark by the time I get done. Seen about thirty head of deer in the river bottoms. My legs are still a little wack from the SGM. I think I have a slite injury from the marathon. left leg upper quad. I have been working with it the past month and seems to be getting better each week. I am able to still run but just taking it easy. I will start some serious training at the first of the year as I am planing on doing the Spectrum 10 in march and then the month after that the Hurricane half. Bye. |

Happy election day to all, kind of a scary time for our country. I think we are going to make a big left turn. I know that in the end good will win.
Todays run took me up to the golf course again, my legs did have a bit more energy.But the left legs is still kind of bothersome. Just a nice easy pace and injoyed the run. I don't like the colder weather much but we will have to get used to it for a few months I guess. I did 30 min of upper body weight training and 200 crunches. |

| Todays run was the coldest yet for the new winter season that is upon us. i just want to get the winter over with. The older I get more I dislike the cold weather. The run was very injoyable, warmed up after about a mile. I think the legs are coming along and begining to feel good after last months SGM. |

| Still kind of on the cold today, my run took me up canal road to the top of the golf course and back. The sun is low in the sky at 4 pm and by the time my run is done the sun is down. I can't wait for six more weeks and the sun will start to work it's way back north. Today both legs felt good and strong. the best they have felt sense the SGM. So I think they are almost totally recovered. finished todays workout with 200 crunches. |

| The weather just dose'nt get any better than this in November. I ran in shirt and shorts again today, it felt absolutley wonderful. I ran across the river bottoms to gu corner, then up power house road, around the golf course. There were some people out playing golf it was diffenitley nice for that. I came down canal road and ran into Bruce Hall, and Bryan Stouffer. We talked for a min, and then they were on there way, and I headed for home, by this time the sun was down and it was getting on the dark side for the last mile. Another month and the days will begin to slowley get longer. It was a great run and a great day. I did 30 min of weight strengthening on the upper body. Finished with 200 crunches. |

I seen a sun dog this afternoon, a sun dog is ice crystals very high in the atmosphere that reflect the sun light a gives a little rainbow spot in the sky. A sun dog sighting means rain or moisture within 48hrs.
Todays run took me up around the golf course, very nice weather and comfy temps again. I could get used to a winter like this. My legs did feel good today, just took it kind of easy. I did 25 min of upper body weight training and finished with 200 crunches. |
