Of course!

Of course my computer is down on the day that Wendy comes through for me and meets me to run in the morning. We were the only two, so she was committed! We enjoyed a 5.5 mile run without enduring all the harassing from those other people!

Now, if you have been lax in your morning commitment or you know someone who has been thinking about starting to run in the morning (We are always trying to steal people away from that Wednesday night group!) next week is the week to start! It is daylight savings time! So on Saturday we gain an hour. No excuses about it being too early! Get the word out!

Full of Information

I nice run with Kwik Trip Gal and New Job Woman! We missed Jenny and Wendy - but know they are still recovering. They probably missed one of the last semi warm mornings - not to rub it in or anything!

Tonight at 7:00 PBS (Channel 12) Nova airs its Marathon Challenge TV special. It should be a good show for all us runners.

I saw this video last and couldn't help but wonder - Sandy, has this ever happened to you?

And just to prove it is hard to find good help these days (as Jill knows) apparently they all work at Wal-Mart:
"Some people that work here had a going away party the other day for a woman that is leaving. One of the supervisors called a Wal-mart and ordered the cake. He told them to write: “Best Wishes Suzanne” and underneath that write “We will miss you”. Here’s the cake that was delivered."

(Just for clarification - this was not from the local Wal-Mart - I think!)

You missed...

a beautiful run this morning. There was a little bit of a breeze, but nothing to create misery. It was the same temperature this morning as last night when I went to bed.

I hear there is the flu going around and I am pretty sure it is not the excuses flu. Hope you are feeling better!
