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.

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

Easy run after work. My toes hurt from all the downhill running or stumbling from the race.

We're having a biggest loser competition at work.  We started on the 1st.  It's the 6th and I've gained two pounds.  This was a pre-emptive strike on the weekend.  Free beer and filipino food did me in.

Light ruck through Griffith Park.  I have no idea how much weight I put in my ruck.  I do know I had clean underwear.

The other day someone asked if I was wearing makeup.  Maybe I should start wearing sunblock on my runs.  Apparently, my sunburnt cheeks make me look like a tranny.

40 lbs ruck.

Convinced my cousin to hike with me.  We were 30 minutes late so we missed the group hike with the guide.

Figured we hike uphill 2.5 miles and come the same way back.  I missed a turn or three and the return trip was 4.39 miles.  My cousin still loves me though.  I think.

For an easy run that wasn't as easy as I would have liked it.

Easy with Ray. 

Up 4 lbs for the Biggest Loser.  Looks like I'm going to be the Biggest Winner.

First tempo run since Apr.  I hadn't realized I had been slacking off that much...

Everyone got a tee shirt and a watermelon.  Except for those that didn't get a watermelon, because they ran out of watermelons.
