I went to the Park trail entrance at 700 W. and 90th and ran with Danielle, Misty, and Charity.

I went out and back and made it 8 miles with Danielle in 1 hour. pretty good time I guess. Nice and brisk morning. The river is flooding some spots of the trail again. I say bring it. All those people that built there 700,000 dollar homes next to it will be on the news soon crying how they didnt think they were in a flood zone. They didnt go to sunday school obviously! Everyone knows the wiseman song!

And of course if they had the wisdom to buy flood insurance, it is our taxpayer dollars bailing them out.

Nice run! It was a beautiful morning, wasn't it? I love when it's light outside in the morning. Lame houses next to the river...

Where is your compassion Walter James?

From RAD on Wed, May 06, 2009 at 13:29:36 from 67.166.99.8

haha, I think its funny that you're bitter about those houses, because my sister-in-law has one of those houses and thats what I always thought!! :)

Nice pace this morning...8 miles an hour is cruising!

From Walter on Wed, May 06, 2009 at 15:38:10 from 76.27.15.208

Yeah Paul I know, we will feel bad for them and there are alot along there.

Bec, I always wanted to have a house on the river. Not Jordan river, but a real one like the Bitter root river that was in the movie a river runs through it. But you have to take precautions when building in an area like that and no one did. Its all good and dandy when its dry.

Teena, no compassion for idiocracy. lol I looked at a few homes for sale in parkway palisades about 5 years ago and there was water stains in the basements of the brand new houses there.

Rachel, I knew someone was going to come on here and say that they or someone they new lives on there to make me feel like a ja. haha

From RAD on Wed, May 06, 2009 at 23:36:42 from 67.166.99.8

did you see the part about that's what I always thought? So I guess I get to be as big of a jerk as you :) See, I can beat you at something!!

From Teena on Fri, May 08, 2009 at 00:09:12 from 67.177.20.13

From Walter on Fri, May 08, 2009 at 10:39:58 from 76.27.15.208

Teena, God bless you! Im really going to be a pushy coach when you get back. Im kiddin, i need some accountability. lol thanks

From Teena on Fri, May 08, 2009 at 10:46:36 from 67.177.20.13

No ... don't be kidding ... I want to be pushed when I'm back!!! :)

From Walter on Fri, May 08, 2009 at 11:39:08 from 76.27.15.208

Im not Kidding, I will push you around! haha But not until you get out of that fragile state your body is in lol :)

From Teena on Fri, May 08, 2009 at 11:43:51 from 67.177.20.13
