    Very exciting stuff Kelly!! You definitely earned it, you put in the beeg miles, smart training, and smart racing! The pic, however, well - looks like it belongs in a Leslie RR Big grin Leslie - the bike shop guys might tell you that you don't need a kevlar beaded tire - just remember that they're guys and it's easier for them to change a tire. That being said, I have small hands and am a wimp in general so you'll have to see for yourself. Latest book - Dean Karnazes' "Ultramarathon Man" - great read! He's a real drama guy (hey, he's Greek), but it's a can't put it down book. Not that I even dream of running in Death Valley or the South Pole, it's still great stuff. Leslie, ping me if you haven't read it and I'll mail it to ya. Arla

        Kelly - Love the port-a-pot! Last night when I commented, there were no inside pics. Very funny! Arla- I haven't read the book and would love to. I'll send you my address. Thanks for thinking of me! Strength training (most uppper body) and core this a.m. for an hour, and about 45 minutes of PT work last night. Am picking and choosing the PT exercises I want to do now, and will be changing them up every couple of weeks so that the bod doesn't get used to it. And just because I know you all have been wondering - the ole bum is almost good as new!! (almost . . .) Big grin It's Thursday, folks. We've almost made it to the end . . . Cool

        Top 'O the World!

          Kelly - Awesome job!! Congratulations!! Great RR - looks like a gorgeous place to run. me & DH loved the 'facilities' pics Big grin I am sooo sleepy today Sleepy....low pressure systems can do that to me sometimes....could also be my xt day yesterday: after I ran 6 miles ~ 4 wagon loads of paver bricks moved & stacked, 6 shrubs cut & hauled, one big tree pruned (still needs cut up & hauled), lawn mowed & fertilized (in prep for rain), three estimates on fence & shed (& then found deal @ Home Depot Cool so now we're doing it ourselves), shopping (need to set up temp fence for doggies), 60 mile round-trip to swap trailers (ours is too small)....... ......the list continues...BUT! ...raining pretty steadily - 1.5" so far....so, **scanning list for stuff doable whilst raining**....must move new TM to basement for use....order final fencing....guess we can finish hauling off shrubbery in the rain.... I forgot to put "nap" on my list! Confused can I really get 4 in later? hmmmm.... Laters! C

            Cindy - You, Kelly, and Jewels are busy, busy gals. Go ahead and take that nap. You deserve it!

              Super RR Kelly and congrats again. You really can run. Love the pics as well! Here's to many more great races/runs for you. Leslie, thanks for the directions. Jeez, all that just to post a pic! I think I'm gonna go give it a shot. I wanted to post a pic of dd with the famous "prom dress". Got a call at work a couple of hrs. ago from my daughter. She's talking very loud, and says "mom, there's smoke out back behind the trees. Looks like a fire just on the other side of the road". Before I can say a word she says, "mom, it looks bad, it's really close." I said hang up and call 911. She says, "wait a minute I hear the firetrucks". Did ya call dad? "No, I called you first"! WTH! Hang up and call dad. "OK" He got to the house in about 10 minutes flat. The fire ended up being further away then what it looked. He called me and said we were OK and that it was about 5 or 6 blocks north of us and that the fire trucks were everywhere and on top of things. Whew! Gawd....we need some good rain around here. O.K. I'm gonna go try to post a couple of pics.....be back in a bit! Jewels

                            Way to Go Jewels- Very nice pics!!! Beautiful dress too !!!Worth fighting for, I'd say.... Yes

                             

                             

                             

                             

                             

                             

                              Great pics, Jewels! My opinion - post more and often. I love looking at pics. You have beautiful girls. Geez - Did we look like that as seniors?? My inner 18-year old is jealous. Wink Just about all I have are pics of cats and running trails. I think I need to expand my photo horizons. I take pics of my cats like people take pics of their kids. Hard to get a cat to smile. Big grin

                                That's quite the dress! I certainly didn't look like that in high school...I hated girls like that.....but all the power to her for being able to wear it and look beautiful! I guess it's the personal trainer in me that can't stand seeing girls wearing clothes that don't fit. Great pictures, Jewels! Kelly
