Personal:

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!

Run? Ha- yeah, right. I did walk up and down a few flights of stairs today, though, and even mowed my lawn. Hips and right ankle feel much better than yesterday. Still sore, but better. Forcing myself to take at least 1 week entirely off.

Preliminary results are posted. Looks like I was over an hour behind 2nd and 3rd place, but then had Troy and Chris just behind me. Knowing they were back there gave a little extra incentive at the end. Full report soon.

30 min yoga. Stretching sure felt nice. I feel much better than I should- pain is only a 1 out of 10, with some additional tightness/stiffness.

Donated blood. It's a good way to make sure I don't talk myself into a run this week, even though I feel no soreness.

Lunch- 15 minute of abs. Holy crap, my abs are sore! Apparently running 100 mile really works the core- I'm hurting each breath after that workout. They are also having a competition at work where you bench press 75% of your body weight and then run a 5k. Each bench rep subtracts 30 seconds from your 5k time, up to 15 min. I haven't lifted since college but was hoping for 10 reps. Nope- 5. 5. Pathetic. Upper body weakling, that's for sure. Finished with a bunch of biking. Legs feel recovered.
