I have five cute kids. And I have some rockin short green racing shorts- I wear them mainly because it embarrasses my wife so much. I like ultimate frisbee, trail running, reading, and cheering for the Denver Broncos! And I have the absolute best wife in the world. And I used to run for the now-disbanded national Team Pearl Izumi- Ultra!

AM- Bagel morning at Planet Fitness. I arrived at 4:35 and watched them set up the bagel table as I ran. However, there were no bagels yet. I ran 6.5 miles and felt much better than yesterday- I even threw in a few miles at 6:30-6:45 pace. The whole time I eyed the table- no bagels yet. I took my shower and left at 5:40- still no bagels! Grrr. Paul says they arrived about 10 minutes after I left. I was hungry and looking forward to them. Oh well- I'll just have to make sure I eat extra pizza on pizza Mondays as retribution.

PM- 6.5 more. My 767 shoes finally kicked over 500 miles and are officially retired. I think I will use them to replace the 765's which have been my everyday shoes for the past 5 years, since they are really wearing out in the sole.

I am running at ~5:20 today if you are interested in a double.

I'm doing a double, but have do be done by 5:45 or so. I'm doing it right at 4:45. Sorry.

I was disappointed that you did not run on the Planet Walk this morning. I thought the snow and 0 degree temps make that route even more special.

From Jon on Tue, Feb 10, 2009 at 15:21:33

Did Logan tell you what the Planet Walk is?

From RivertonPaul on Tue, Feb 10, 2009 at 18:49:05

At least you had warm water.

I am about to switch back to new balance for my distance shoe. Been disappointed with the asics nimbus and saucony triumph, they seem to wear out fast. So I bought 3 pairs of cushioned NB 1063s on clearance. I need all that cushioning with my nasty high rigid supinating arches. what am I rambling about anyway??? gotta go pack for san diego. ha ha getting even for florida, let it snow!!!

4:45 in the morning, you're pretty dedicated. Too bad the bagel boy didn't show up in time.

From Harris on Wed, Feb 11, 2009 at 12:26:37

No I still do not know what the Planet Walk is. I like to pretend that I am cool like that though.
