AM: Two mile walk around our hotel with Abby in Laramie. Plan to do a longer run this afternoon either at my sister's house or in Boulder.

PM: Difficult 9.25 miles in the hills above my sister's house in Larkspur, Co, Hotter than the Weather Channel said it was gonna be. 

PPM: Couple more miles walking around the CU campus here in Boulder.

An observation.... Boulder is different from Utah. So close, yet so far.

Been thinking about adding Ron Burgundy quotes. They're more funny than running.

Anchorman 2 comes out in December. I propose a FRB night at the Cineplex on 3300S.

I can just see you doing pushups on the CU quad while the girls are walking by. One thousand one, one thousand two...

I love that newspaper "The Onion" that comes out of Boulder. We get a lot of Boulder folks on the plane and whenever they leave the paper I grab it. Best Mt. Dew article I ever read:

I coincidentally watched Anchorman again last night. "That escalated really quickly".
