Met with the BBK's and ran 3 easy with a few of them and then did a tempo workout. I did a 4 mile tempo with the following splits: 5:34, 5:40,5:47, 5:42. I love running in the morning! I wished I could do these splits in the evening without trouble. Oh by the way...I saw a huge Crawdad along the river on the asphault. It was a baby lobster! about 6" long. A real beauty! (he says in his Steve Irwin voice)

I went on my lunch break to Liberty Park and did 4 loops to hit 6 miles total in 41 minutes.

Is that what you were yelling at us this morning as you flew back?? We missed the lobster.

Are you and Misty running TOU 1/2 next weekend?

Kelli I figured you guys wouldn't hear me. Yes we are doing Tou. We could get together if you'd like. Is Scott going up?

From Rob on Thu, Aug 18, 2011 at 17:50:12 from 206.71.84.68

What is a BBK? Sounds like a new Burger King menu item! If it is, I want one, it sure makes you run fast.

Bingham Butt Kickers. I thought it was British at first. They are a well organized group and fun to socialize with. It gets me up for a workout also! It's fun to run with them and see them progress like Kelli, she has come alive from where she used to be! Btw, I love the flying shark and nemo! Funny when the shark attacks the cat looking in the fish bowl!

Wow you are such a fast runner. I didn't see the Crawdad.

From Walter on Thu, Aug 18, 2011 at 19:31:41 from 24.2.69.110

Nancy, I must have laser vision when I run. I scared a deer before the bridge or should I say it scared me. Maybe that got my senses up to see it. It was really big I was surprised to see it. It went into the dark when you guys ran over it. I tried to tell the others as I was coming back. By the way Nancy, I didnt do the whole 7 miles. Only 4. I hope you still think im fast though. lol

From Kelli on Thu, Aug 18, 2011 at 23:56:02 from 71.219.67.82

We are both going, yup.

From Kelli on Thu, Aug 18, 2011 at 23:59:24 from 71.219.67.82

I saw that comment about me later...Thanks Walter. A little push was apparently what I needed in life and the BBK's did it (and still do, who else could get me out to run at 5 am???)

From Walter on Fri, Aug 19, 2011 at 01:02:01 from 97.36.238.75

Kelli it is true. It's nice to have a motivator to help get up early. It is so hard to do in the later part of the day. I'll have Misty talk to you about doing something up in Cache Valley if you'd like.

Nice job friend! :)

From Walter on Fri, Aug 19, 2011 at 14:30:06 from 24.2.69.110

Thanks Lily. How's it going over there?

From Lily on Fri, Aug 19, 2011 at 15:48:07 from 67.199.178.210

It's going ok. I'm running hobble creek tomorrow. Are you? I can't remember.

From Walter on Fri, Aug 19, 2011 at 16:52:40 from 24.2.69.110

No dudette, I have a wedding in Montana. So you'll be PRing right?

From Lily on Fri, Aug 19, 2011 at 21:04:29 from 67.199.178.210

I don't know..... I better!
