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.

Went out for a ruck run.  Planned to run 2 miles out and back.  Turned into a 2 mile ruck run then rest until I could convince my legs to move then walk back.  I had lost my respect for State-side weather.  I re-discovered it today.

15:28 pace (including sitting on the park bench panting)

1700; 105 F; nice and sunny

ruck run? pace panting?

You keep adding knowledge in my book.

After watching your video, I'm sure it was an super effort run. Not for wimps like me...

If I've learned ANYTHING from watching TV, it's never sit on a park bench. They're always freshly painted. Did you check your backside for a stripe of paint afterwards?

Hope you had a wonderful 4th and that things are going well for you, Rachel, and the girls! :)

I agree with Eric. My running vocabulary seems to grow every time I read your blog!
