I don't have any tough runs planned this week, so I'm going to run how I feel - probably all short and sweet  days :)

Hey what you know?! I finally had a day where I beat Will in mileage! Haha. How you doin buddy? I know it's way too soon for me to think about racing, but now that I've had a taste of jogging again, I'm already licking my chops in anticipation of marathon #3. What's your next race?

Benn, I'm glad your ok, you never know when your time is coming to an end here, and I think you know this because you are living life to the fullest every day. But that poor, sad cat, he could not avoid fate, and eventually we will all have to face it.

It is good that we are both running again. I can't wait to read your upcoming race reports!

I have 2 races planned this summer, a July 11th 50k at Devil's Lake, Wisconsin, and an 8 hour timed run at Lake Mingo in early August.

I am finally living the ultra running lifestyle - I have wanted to run long distance for a long time now, for some reason it took me forever to get to it, but the time has finally arrived!
