Long-Term Running Goals:

I would like to be able to keep up with my daughter.  The one who runs xc, not the one who's going to change the world through dance.  Although I would like to be able to dance also, so I change that to me wanting to be able to keep up with both my daughters.

Personal:

I have two gorgeous daughters; two good-looking cats and two dogs with great personalities.

Entered a pullup competetion, I did 4 less than the last competition, but this was timed and the last one wasn't.  I was still able to do 17 more than 2nd place.  Picked up my prize for the pushup competition from last week as well. 

Turns out prizes are leftovers from prior events. 

The pushup prize was a towel from the Air Force Marathon, which is good because running a marathon is more impressive than doing a minute's worth of pushups.

The pullup prize was a t-shirt from black history month, which is good because the Tuskegee Airmen are my heroes.

I wonder what they'll give out for situps?

Is that your way of saying that you WON?!? Hotdog! That is so cool! :) When I grow up I want to be able to do a pull up :)

Yes :)

If you put your mind to it, you'll conquer the pullup, Marion. Just like everything else...

I also won a water bottle, but we don't drink from the tap here. So in order to use my water bottle, I would have to open a bottle of water and pour it into mine. Also to wash it, I would use bottled water. Sheesh.

How many of those suckers did you do?? I remember back in the day when I could do 3 sets of 10 with a 50 lb. weight hanging from my waist. Now I honestly don't know if I could knock out 5 of them. Great job bud!

Jefferey,

I did 25, but I know a guy who warms up with 30 and does 12 sets of 10 with 50 lbs. He's not here obviously or he would have won. He's also 55 years old, so you've got 10 years to catch up. I've got 20. Let's get moving!
