With my modified work schedule this week I was able wait until the sun came out to do the 6 mile morning run with Kim. The SF canyon breeze was a bit crazy at times but with the sun shining brightly it wasn't so bothersome today, and ended up being a super run. Ave pace somewhere around 10 min/mi.

Then less than 3 hours later did the Lakeview 10K loop and had another great run with Paul and Will. This was officially my 1st day this year wearing a singlet! Yahoo! Spring really truly is on it's way! Afterward did a quick circuit/weights workout. Ave pace 8:15.

Sure nice getting the double dose of sun today but it made want a nap. Going to the Collective Soul concert tonight as part of the Brainshare festivities with Kim, Kim's brother and our 2 youngest boys. Hope I can stay awake :)

Lucky! I'm a big fan of Collective Soul.

It felt very Spring-like out there today, didn't it?

Cal I've been trying to dig up a few more free tickets to the concert tonight from some of my work buddies who aren't using all of their "allotment" (5 tickets per employee) but so far to no avail.

If by chance I find a few more I'd be happy to give you 1 or 2. Not sure what your schedule is like but if I can find any I'll post again later and let you know. The concert goes from 8 to 10 at the ES Arena.

Thanks Tom, I appreciate your efforts. I don't think I could make it fly though. We already have some neighbors coming over for a 'Survivor' party at the house.
