This Week's Adventures




Hello All--We had friends over this week, so Katrina scheduled something everyday of the week. We went to a WNBA game, AAA baseball game, zoo w/ evening concert and more. I have attached some of the pictures for your viewing pleasure. There is one of Kaleb and I after this week. I had a 12.4 mile race today. I wanted to give Steve the splits. He has been asking my pace for different runs. 6:39, 6:35, 6:45, 6:57, 7:04, 6:32 (downhill), 7:05, 7:13 (uphill), 6:55, 6:49, 6:45, 6:47, and 2:46 (0.4). I had a total time of 1:24:58. This was my longest distance run of the summer. I had only went 11 miles last Sunday. I have never ran just a half marathon, but my fastest half of the full marathon is 1:27:30. I had Isshin-Ryu Karate training this Saturday. We started conditioning our arms to take a blow. My are are very sore. I told Chris I would give him some websites on Isshin-Ryu, so they are attached if anyone wants to see the art I am studying under an Army Ranger here on Bolling. http://www.wholeheartednews.com/index.php http://www.olemiss.edu/orgs/karate/ On a different note, my nipple started bleeding from the rubbing on the shirt during todays run. That is the first time I have had that happen. My calfs are also sore from the run. I guess: No Pain; No Gain! Peace Out (I stole this from Chris) He had a spell a year ago where he would say this all the time. I will give you $50 for the diebetes foundation. If you need it before the race, I will need you to e-mail me your address again. I plan to run the MCM between 3:16:38 and 3:29:45. My PR is 3:23:39. I just hope my legs don't give out. My hip is still bothering me as well. I guess I better go, before something else breaks.

You and Chris are thieves! Is that my shirt you have on laying on the floor? MMmmmmmm. It sure looks like it. I know Chris has been the biggest thief over the years. Anyway, good pics! Those times on running are pretty impressive and I have a lot of work to do. It is inspiring though. I just hope I can come in a respectable second place. As the wise one says, "peace out".
I looked up the qualifying time for the Boston Marathon. Wow! It's up there! 3:10 for 18-34 year old men. Good luck buddy! I just hope I don't die...
