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.

AM- elliptical

PM- Day 1 of cross country tryouts. Most years, the team has about 30 members. Today we had 53 kids show up, plus 11 others who said they would come but missed today. That's a lot, and we aren't equipped for it (don't even have enough uniforms). Crazy, fun practice. Tomorrow is another practice, then next Monday is a time trial to see who will be on team. I'm trying to convince the RD to significanly increase from last year's record 38 runners.

AM- 30 min elliptical, 4 miles running, weights

PM- cross country tryouts. Ran around a bunch. We had 49 kids there today. I believe we will have as many as 58 tryout. I'm pushing the AD to let us keep as many as possible.

AM- walked at gym

PM- we actually had 14 people for frisbee. Hot and windy. My team won 5-2. For the second game, my normally good throw was terrible and I turned it over 3 or 4 times. We lost 2-3.

Tough day at frisbee. 6v6 on a very hot and very windy day. My team got ahead 4-2, then they tied it 4-4, then we won 5-4. Very difficult with the heat and wind. It was Dennis's last day as he's moving to Charlotte. Will miss him.
