One Half So Far
Howdy amigos.
Was able to do 5.5 last night outside. No snow, no rain, got lucky. Ran at 9:03 pace, which is really fast for me.
Good to hear people are doing well. SRD for me.

Awood & Scotty, you guys know me too well, I was able to get another 10 miles in before music class (where I am now). It was a great run too, 62* and sunny.

Brady - I could see you getting sub-25 with no problem! Zel - Specialty alloys can be difficult to explain. When I tell my friends that I'm going to lunch with a customer from the steel mill, they always say, "Don't you sell steel? Do you sell steel to the steel mill?". Yes, and yes. If you're not on either side of that transaction, it can be difficult to explain. n8ugv - Just send that snow this way. I need some. Tori - Good to see that you're back, and posting some miles.

URD for me, had a meeting today with our pastor that took a bit longer than expected. Oh well, I'll run the next 3 days.
awood, I work for a steel mill, we do not call alloys steel. I work in a carbon sheet mill, we run some rather exotic grades, and I also know there is much more speciality steel than what we make. Do you deal with Nucor?
Mitch - We sure do. I think you're outside of my territory, but we make coiler guide liners, chutes, hoppers, baghouse fans, bucket liners, descale hoods, etc. Anything AR, Chromium Carbide overlay, armor grade, etc.

Mitch and awood..... my dad owns a steel tubing company. So the things you guys do and sell somehow will directly affect my dad's business. So....keep up the good work!

I started a blog about running :) Check it out if you care to
Cool, which one?
If I told you that you could easily find out my last name and true identity :-P.
Mitch, Crawfordsville is just south of my territory. I wonder if I could get them to shift the line a few miles...lol I run from Toledo to Davenport to Detroit and to just North of Indianapolis. Soooo....close....lol
Kristin - I'll do the best I can.
Kristin, I'm sorry if that came across as too personal for you. I really meant no harm. We supply for tube companies like ACIPCO, Southland, Independence Tube, and Maverick to name a few. Awood, maybe some day you 'll get to pick up C-ville then. Don't know I you are aware, but I'm from Detroit.
No bother.... that's why I made a silly face. Those tube companies supply my dad's company. He has bought tubes from all of those mentioned. His company then turns those tubes into bent tubes that will be turned into parts for things like coffeemakers, gas fire places, cars, medical equipment, ect.
Running for two!
