Well it seemed I didn't need to take a shower on Saturday as I got one out by the Rez. Stan, Phil and I got about a mile and decided to turn it around. Three things I am allergic to:
1. Calories (they make be bloat up for some reason).
2. Gravity (I always fall, and never stay in mid air, go figure) and
3. Lightening strikes. Remember the old tv commercial, "It's not nice to fool around with Mother Nature!". Well at least we did something.......
The three of us looked like we ought to have t-shirts made up that reads, "Old Broken Down Farts of the world, Unite!!". Poor Stan had two knee braces on and was hobbling, Phil has some pain in his shin/knee and was hobbling, and I had my left hamstring wrapped so tight, my toes thought everything above them were on vaction. (I pulled it on Thursday's training run). To be honest, I was glad I didn't go 5 miles because I didn't know how my hammy would respond. I plan to go today and test it out slowly.....I just hope this increase in mileage will not leave us behind. "Wait!" "Don't leave me!" (as I see all of you non injured people blow by me!). I think we all need to pray for each other: ............"and give us this day.....joints that don't ache. And lead us not unto unseen potholes....and forgive us for tripping and we forgive others who trip us....."
You get the idea.

Your blog was so funny - I will put all three of you guys on my prayer list. Saturdays run was fun even with the down pour.
You are WAY too funny! Maybe, since I don't have an Ironman yet, you'll let me run intervals with you on Saturday. However, I don't know if I can make it for 30 seconds, so I'm sure you would leave me in your dust even with the injury!
I saw y'all running as I drove off. Hope your hamstrings feel better soon!
thank you for blogging, I always have a smile on my face after reading your posts.
You are too funny. Hope to see you and the other rodentia Saturday...
Your blog made me laugh out loud!!! My husband thinks I'm slowly going insane.... Keep 'em coming. You're too funny!
