Honestly it was the plan since January but I hit a couple of bumps in the road during February.  That said a little extra motivation never hurts.

Ya got to get that motivation from somewhere.  I've gotten it from a lot of the boobs here.  I still fucking think about MikeyMike outkicking me at that Luti race at least once a week.  I'll admit, I'm looking at Dakota and dacook's training logs.  I check to make sure Candice doesn't get too far ahead of me in miles for the YTD.  I look at that shit.  You all motivate me.  I just like to give back from time to time.  I've got some predictions for this year.  Maybe some of them will motivate a few of you.

#1.  Luti 2010.  It won't come down to a kick this year.  Thunder by 20+ seconds. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

#2.  Boston 2010.  dacook and Dakota better do something nasty over these last few weeks.  Cause you're in for a world of hurt come 4/19 my friends. 

#3.  AnotherOne runs under 2:50 at CMM on another miserable hot day. 

#4.  Dopplebock passed SJ at about hour 22 and goes on to beat him by 5+ miles....and get a podium spot at Worlds.

#5.  Candice figures out the 5k and runs low 19 by year's end. 

#6.  Jeff strikes gold and drops a 2:29:57 at Minneapolis in the fall.

#7 .  The Skooter runs the monkey in the 3:30's, and proceeds to outdrink all but Mikey the Pig post race.

#8  My man DrewEOB starts talking about 'real training' this summer....only to keep rolling piddly little mileage and get another 4 + hour monkey.

#9.  Trent makes the best home brew of the year.  We drink it all after the monkey...it goes very well with home made pumpkin pie. 

#10.  Mikeymike gets back on a roll after taking a hard loss at the Luti...and runs sub 2:50 at Baystate. 

I still fucking think about MikeyMike outkicking me at that Luti race at least once a week.

JC.  You too?  I've got Balboa Train up my ass about losing.  Something about 7 seconds worth of humiliation.

But hey, he's getting me out the door.  Round 2 is in April.

I believe the man is still drunk from last nights St Patty's drinking binge

Will Thrunder lay down and be A1 and MTP's bitch at Monkey again?

Country Music will be good weather

I am out of drinking shape - I am not even hitting 25 beers per month lately

It will take an american record to reach the Podium - I am not there ... this year. 

Chapter One and we already know how it all ends? What's left for Chapter Two?

Hey, I didn't take no writing course.  Maybe my book will only be one chapter.  I'm no philosophical blabber jabber like some people I know.  I get to the point.  It will be easy to read my book...cover to cover baby.  YOU will look back one race this year too.  You will look back because after AnotherOne passes you, you'll be wondering how far back The Thunder could be. 

See your ass at Purity. 

5k balls would have helped CC at the end of TK.

Any kind of balls would help your running. 

 

  YOU will look back one race this year too.  You will look back because after AnotherOne passes you, you'll be wondering how far back The Thunder could be. 

 

See your ass at Purity. 

Ah, and you think you're incapable of blabber-jabber.

I didn't take no writing course.

You could have fooled me.
