Running Update July 31, 2008

6 miles tonight. All the way from RunnersWorld to our Tuesday night
meeting place and back. That is the most I have done on a weeknight
since I started running a year and a half ago. Had to walk more than I
had hoped but I was tired and it was another scorcher out there. Was
pleased with my finish time though. Ran some with Marvin, Ken and
Roman. Thanks guys. Couldn't keep up with Ed or the Bean Team.
They looked a little drained at the 3 mile turnaround but kept on
chuggin along. Great job guys and gals.

Anyone figure out the cost of the kidnappers clothes? I think I did but
no confirmation yet. If I remember right my guess was 137.50.
Top 70.00, hood 12.50, sunglasses 27.00, gloves 28.00, hanging out
with running buddies - priceless.

Tomorrow a rest day (except for work) to get ready for a 10 mile
Saturday run.

Running Update July 30, 2008

Great news from the Sports Medicine Specialist I seen on Monday.
No surgery required on my knees, keep running, do strengthening
exercises for my legs, take glucosamine condroiton, Ibuprofin
and ice the knees.
Go back in one month.

Ran 3 miles with Michael Whitten and Ed Monday evening on the
west bank of the river. We took it slow. Felt good.

Man it was another hot day Tuesday evening.
Got in another 4 miles with the RunnersWorld group.
Had to walk more than usual.
