Monday night run with 3 kids.  We stopped to see a bison, cow, peacock, duck, turkey, etc.  Then at Reading the girls wanted to spend some time on the playground.  I ran a couple laps around, and when I got back, Jack had no pants.  I guess he peed them, and was climbing around the equipment naked from the waist down, completely ignored by his big sisters.  It was below 50 degrees, so the poor kid was shivering with chattering teeth.  I wrapped him up in a blanket and got home as fast as possible for a warm bath and chocolate chip cookie.  

The girls got a stern lecture; parenting at its finest...

3 on the mill, then 5 outside.  I was waiting for the girls to come watch amazing race with me.  After 3 miles of no-show, I decided to take the run outside on such a beautiful day.  Late April can even make the BST look resplendent.  The valley of newly green trees in the declining light was a sight to appreciate.

I ran the last 16 miles of the SL Marathon with Russ.  He was holding on well until mile 17, when dizziness forced a slowdown.

I gotta be honest, I was a little bit glad, because it was a lot of work keeping the pace he was shooting for.  Hats off to Russ for trying to BQ on an honest, altitude course.
