Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."

Hi Holly. Thanks as always.
I need a pass this week.Three day trade show + travel and then travel to SC for Patrick's national championship and back means no real time for running. I might make 20.
23.8 - but I did get to watch kiddo rock it at XC nationals with his team. That's worth more than some goofy miles.
