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."
Trails are hard!
boy, for a moment, I thought you were making it a little easier for some of the less accomplished runners.
Need a fast half for late fall. Then I need to actually train for it.

I'll be traveling next Sunday (to Arizona). With 2 days off this week, I won't "come really close." So I guess it's "Hasta la vista." Good luck to all at Flying Monkey.
