Are races this fall?

No races for me Terry. Pretty much lately just running for fun and to keep all the cookies from accumulating too much around the waistline. Kim & I have been playing a lot of pickleball lately we're in a Tuesday night league. Been getting more enjoyment out of that for competition rather than racing. But maybe when I turn 55 and enter new AD I'll change my attitude.

What about you Terry? Any races?

No races for me either. I’ve had a bad case of sciatica which is limiting my running. Doing a lot more core stretching and strengthening. It’s getting a little better but not gone.

Pickleball sounds fun. If you ever want to whoop on me and Taunia let me know.

Yeah Terry I think it's time for another St George getaway, but this time with couples and involving a pickleball tournament :)
