I found it!

I found it! I found a person who can rival Bryan when it comes to telling detailed stories.

This type of person is very handy to have on long runs, because you never have to worry the conversation lagging. Unfortunately, I don't think she lives in WI and something tells me she is not a runner. So Bryan doesn't have to worry about anything.

Good thing their Daddies taught them good!

Summer is OVER

A sure sign that summer is over - back to 5:00 am runs. BUMMER

I was really thinking it was going to be raining this morning - just to start life out right, but it wasn't. Of course, us morning runners know that when you WANT it to rain in the morning, it never does and when you aren't expecting it to rain (because if you are honest, you never really WANT to run at 5:00 am) it does.

AND the heat and the humidity was still present. BUMMER.

It seemed appropriate that on the first day of 5:00 running and the first day of school that we run the BEER route. Of course, God was also telling us something when a car decided to do a rolling stop just as we were crossing thru the intersection. Good thing our NYC runner Elyse wasn't with us, because he would have gotten a morning wake up call (shout) that he would never have forgotten and runners around the the world would have been forever safe from his careless driving.

However, the incident did remind us that we need to be wearing our reflective gear again!

Quite a few interesting news stories to talk about this morning. Christy seemed out of the loop so, I thought I would provide some links to broaden hers and others Current Event knowledge:

Let the school year begin!
