seattle marathon - circa 2006 (see also 1990) girls/girls.)>>>, i mean <<<(hills/hills)>>> <<<()>>> 皇居 in wooden geta 下駄　sandals, straw 草鞋 waraji sandals and several kinds of cloth tabis 足袋 including a regular jika-tabis 地下足袋 I also ran sections of the Tokyo Marathon course (3/22 this year; 2/;28 next year) adding up to 18 miles as I took the rosie ruiz trains back from the two out-and-backs. January total - 70 miles (January PR), . . . or was that 70K? either way, still a PR month. In fact, after three laps already this month, I`m ahead of last year`s February too. February miles - tetsujin - 10.2 miles YTD - 80.2 miles arigatou royal wildness goddess 1. February runs . . a. 2/7 - (3.1)(2) miles (barefoot) . . b. 2/14 - 4 miles (barefoot0 2. PR - running 10K from 9:30am - 10:00am on 2/7 (unfortunately, it took an hour to do it as 30 minutes was in Tokyo and 30 minutes in Seattle exactly 19 hours later) 3. boomer reunions - francesca/divechief/enka (2/19) 4. gratuitous comment - a bare foot is a terrible thing to waste in shoes hey, what a coincidence. I did two events too. 29.95 miles - St. Pat's Dash (3.75 miles) and Dizzy Daze Marathon YTD - 80.2 + 29.95 = 110.15 miles April miles - 0 YTD = 110.15 ps - my favorite running photos of all time are the little flyers' ones too. me too http://www.brightroom.com/view_user_event.asp?
