I'm happy to hear you kicked that Migraine!

From Jody on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 12:48:04

Glad you are feeling better! Very nice mileage today!

From walter on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 14:35:05

Camille, I ran it out of my system! I guess thats what my lifes curse is the Migraine!

Jody, it sucks when you feel under the weather. Im glad I hammered through it last night though.

From Michelle N. on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 16:05:14

That sounds like an awesome route!:) I'll have to try that one sometime.

From wheakory on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 17:48:07

Nice run and a lot of down and up an over and around. Don't you hate runs where you feel your mind and body is somewhere else, but your legs just know what to do?

I kind of felt like that this morning.

From Kelli on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 18:21:29

With all of that down and over and around and over, we should have run into you. You must be making it up! Did you take all right turns again?

Glad you are feeling better. Who is Trick?

From walter on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 18:47:10

Michelle, part of my round and about ended up running into you huh!?

Kory, yes, I was able to keep my mind off it somehow though.

Kelli, I did run into a couple of you coming up 9800 so. with trick. I saw the dog lady,(don't know her name) and the tall guy(same) and then I turned left at 40th to Daybreak. Trick is a long time running friend of mine who wants to remain anonymous on here because of her high profile status she has. I can reveal it to you in person later. She is shooting for a 3:10 marathon. I helped her get a 3:18 a few years ago but I wont be able to help her this time. So Im teaching her to create a schedule in running. Shes got talent but has a busy schedule. Amy knows who she is and maybe even a few others on the BB group.

From Kelli on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 19:03:06

Okay, got it. We would not want to reveal anything! I thought it might have been your wife, so I was checking.

The dog lady was way ahead of us (she left early to get going, and then left early to go home---if that makes any sense at all).

From walter on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 19:39:04

My wife ran with her sister. Boy it is getting dark isnt it? I was going to hit the canal road but we both were leary of dogs, animals, bums, etc.

That remindes me K-dawg, ask Peggy about her encounter with the nude runner. It was on your route this morning in fact. lol no kidding!

From camille on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 19:41:02

nude runner? streaker?

From walter on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 19:45:19

Yes birthday suit material with running shoes on. He passed Peggy and said, you should run like this! No kiddin, It was super dark like it gets in the mornings right now. Ive never gotten up the nerve or been bet enough money to try that one! lol I would be thrown in the clink for sure and thats no lie! Its how I roll! lol

From walter on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 19:49:20

I should clarify, it didnt happen this morning, it just happened to be the same route that the BB group ran on this morning.

From Michelle N. on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 20:41:14

Oh yeah, the nude dude was by Skye Park Dr. out 9800 So. She was totally freaked out but some guy stopped and helped her if I remember right. That was like 4-5 years ago. SCARY!

From Camille on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 20:54:52

That's pretty creepy... LOL

From Luke on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 22:32:41

Thats gross. haha

From walter on Fri, Sep 12, 2008 at 00:03:27

You couldnt even think you were being funny now! Youd have half the neighborhood looking for you.
