Ran with the BBK group and tried keeping up with them. I was afraid of doing too many speed workouts this week so I held back and then decided to do one mile of hard tempo work.  I have Del Sol Relay tomorrow so if my blackberry doesnt work on getting my miles logged in then Ill have to wait to report the rest of my wicked boring life later.

You are full of poop! You tried to keep up? You weren't even breathing! If you hadn't been talking, I'd have thought you were dead:)

Have fun at Del Sol, I didn't know you were running it! Drive safe, have fun and tear up the roads again (like last year!).

Walter, you make me so sad. I was really pushing to keep up with your 'held back' :( Someday, someday! I almost caught you until you took off for that last mile- DANG! Good luck at DelSol and tell Kelli Happy B-day for me, oh, don't stay up too late tomorrow...hahahhaha

From walter on Thu, Feb 26, 2009 at 23:22:17 from 72.223.78.173

Michelle, I was too breathing. Just not as hard as you! lol

Jeff, Thanks. Youll have to look into the Sunvalley relay for me. That one would be fun.

Rachel, I will tell Kelli, who is sick by the way, Happy birthday from you. I promise Ill be staying up late tomorrow! haha Ill be dreaming of large women. Lets see if you can pick the right movie for that one!

From Michelle N. on Thu, Feb 26, 2009 at 23:41:22 from 75.162.117.54

I was breathing hard. Jody and I think you shoud really pace us all the time. We'd be awesome.

sleep well and dream of large women! Oh, did you have any doubt I DIDN'T know that one?!? I am a large woman...and know nearly every quote about them :) My favorite is "I might look like a rhinocerous, but I've got a thin skin!" Thats an old chick flick, so you might have to look that one up.

Tell Kelli I'm sorry she's sick! DANG IT! STINK! UGGGHHH! She's supposed to be having fun and on vacation :(

Hope the race goes well, I'll be excited to see all of the race posts as they come in!

From Jody on Fri, Feb 27, 2009 at 14:20:42 from 68.178.112.227

Yes - Walter, Michelle and I request your pacing services much more often :)

From walter on Sat, Feb 28, 2009 at 19:03:25 from 72.211.157.51

Michelle and Jody, It would be my pleasure to pace you guys. Will work for chocolate. haha

Rachel, I was going to sleep but decided to stay up with Kelli and text and blog and nonsense blah blah blah.
