Pretty good training day. Felt good.

Five days now since anyone has commented on my blog. No validation for me I guess. I suppose it will have to come from within. :(

Thanks Allie! I'm all pumped and motivated now. Think maybe I'll go do 10 more and make it a 28 mile day.

Yeah, I'll be there next weekend. Then the Salt Lake Half, Ogden Full, and the Gary Bjorklund Half in Minnesota in June.

Great job Rob! I highly respect teachers and read your blog. Just not a comment machine. Not blowing sunshine here. I'd like to help out our local track and cross country coaches, do you think they would be open to that? I didn't run at all in my youth, but think I could help in some way.

Rob, Some days I'm so busy it's all I can do to get my own entry in!

Another reason I don't comment on other blog sites is because I'm afraid of offending people. I'm kind of blunt and straight forward about things LOL!

Anyway.. When are we going running?
