Went to the Draper Park and ran the Trail with Misty, Scott and Kelli. I ran with Scott for 11 miles then did a half mile tempo run and then a half mile slow jog/walk. It was windy on the way out and on the way back had a tail wind. There was a race going on that all of us should have run. We would have dominated. lol

Walter James, you are slacking again on the posts!!!

Hey, concrete question for you ... do you do just the normal concrete or do you do the decorative concrete as well? I'm trying to talk Ry into letting me have some one rip out some of our ugly concrete in the back and replacing it with some pretty stuff. Doubt I will be successful at talking him into it. Do you do that?

Im sorry Teena. I will run tomorrow. I have been stressed out with a wedding in my back yard, work, running, no sleep, etc. Yes I do Stamped concrete colored and all with a pattern. I can come look and see how much you need to do. Just let me know.
