I ran 3 miles on treadmill to try to get my phlem boiling. Sick huh?  Im considering not doing the Ogden 10 miler this sat. Ill have to see.  By the way for those Ive talked to about a serious race with lots of beer and dogs in it check this out!  I cant even qualify for it! www.baevents.net/bigmanrun/information.html It'll have you rolling! 200+pound athletes! very very funny! I would puke after the first station! And where the heck am I going to carry my tip money at?

Ok I started my evening run in the rain and ended up at the gym running on the treadmill. I did a total of 6 miles at a 7 minute pace. I actually feel good when I run but very congested. The lady on the treadmill kept looking at me like I was Clyde! Trying to clear my throat. Sorry Clyde no offense! Your all I look up to right now!  You just dont understand when your an idol what people will do to try to be like you!  Well thats it for me youve been a great audiance. (Bowing out on a high note)

Nice race- it made me laugh. Mandatory eating and drinking!

Did you come down with James' flu? Hope you feel better. They are expecting snow at the race Sat, so that stinks.

From Walter on Thu, Mar 13, 2008 at 16:02:04

We definately need to put one on here exept it would have to be root beer of course! Yes I thought I could kick this flu before moab and ran through it and I just dont want to keep continuing on like this. Ill have to see how I feel sat. morning! I may use it for a long run or something.

From Cody on Thu, Mar 13, 2008 at 17:02:32

Even if you take it easy you will probably be in the top 10 for sure. After watchng you run moab that fast while sick, you could even win...

From Walter on Thu, Mar 13, 2008 at 17:44:42
