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!

Lunch- frisbee on a glorious, 70 deg day with minimal wind. We made the field narrower and about 40 yards longer- it was huge. Lots more running than usual. 6v6, then 5v5. Close battle, evenly matched, never more than a 1 point lead. My team won 5-4.

First lunch run in months. Ran with Barry, plus some with Jim, Shamgar, and Scott. GE trail. Running outside on the trail is a lot harder than on the treadmill. Then bike.

Joined the FRB 10 years ago. I'm one of only 299 members with 10 years seniority, and one of only 13 who is still active (updated in the past month)

Ultimate Frisbee- 70 deg day with little wind and somewhat cloudy. We had 22 people show up, a record, so split into 2 games. I went onto the smaller, new field. We had 4 vs 4, then 5 vs 5. We won 5-3, then combined games of 4v4. We went down 0-2, then scored 3 straight to win. Lots of running. Tired. That's a good thing.
