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 7 with Mark.  Still below freezing temps at lunch, but warm enough for shorts.  The goal is the ramp up my training by running 6 days a week, and slowly increasing mileage.

Lunch 8 with Phil and Jim.  Felt good today for the first time this week.  Still below freezing highs.  Even colder and snow predicted next week.

Looks like I passed the 3000 mile mark for the year.  Cross another goal off the list.  This will be my first year while on the FRB that I don't increase my total mileage, though.

Lunch- it was goodie day at work, so I pigged out all morning, eating cookies, cheesecake, breads, etc.  Needless to say, my primary goal all 6 miles of my run was to keep all the food down.  Despite some close calls, it was a success.  After work, we took the girls to Disney's Princesses on Ice- lots of fun, and I'm not sure I've ever seen so many little girls dressed as princesses in my life.
