Hey - great job guys!!! Four in the top eight. Three PR's (Tom you'll get yours next week). I had a game last night so I couldn't make it, but I should be there next week. Hopefully I will see you all then.

Good to see everyone. EJ, Rick - nice PR's, I was impressed! I see it's going to take alot for me to try and keep up with you two. Mike - Nice to meet you & nice win, congrats. Jay - Try to make a few more. See you next week.

Hey Eric. I was wondering where you were last week. Always good to have more people to run with to push me along. See you tomorrow.

Hard to believe another week has flown by, and it's time to head for the beautiful Mill City once again. I couldn't lace 'em up again without at least committing a thought or two here. It was great to meet our new Vice Overlord of Weekly Local 5K series, mikeymike. Nothing like making a maiden voyage in style, first overall aint too shabby. For those who don't roam the main forums much, mike posts on the "goal of sub 17 minute 5K" thread, and after Boston will be turning his attention to the 5K distance. Hopefully we'll get another guest appearance at some point. It will to great to raise beers and celebrate his success regardless of the race location, but it would be even better if he happened to get 16: xx on a Tuesday night. I would say a mikeymike return would be likely, but after winning an absolutely FABULOUS award what else could compare? I laughed so hard when I saw the photo of the Bikini Run start that I think I damaged an internal organ or two. Follow that with Tom's discussion of running "the tangents" and I may be asking for help with an organ donation drive. Festus got nothin' on Tom and his creative running. And speaking of creativity, a young man who shall remain nameless has found a way to enhance his Miley count. Run under an assortment of assumed names, and your trophy case will be overflowing in no time. I checked it out, and the weaseled Miley looks just like the real thing. Don't worry Trent, I won't name any names. RickyB has painted a target on my back, apparently dissing his dear old Dad is so yesterday. The writing's on the wall, and the day of reckoning will soon be at hand. Not bad for a guy suffering plantar fasciitis. Why don't you pick on somebody your own age, punk. Thankfully, Ricky's dramatic season opener was overshadowed by an even more impressive run. Dan Dodson not only ran a Good Times PR, he ran an all time 5K PR. Very impressive indeed, when he returns from his time off I owe him a beer. Hopefully some of our friends that were MIA on Opening Night at least put in an appearance to tip a pint, anybody know if Rich and Kathy are back on the side of the milk carton?

Great run Tom, nice PR...Much better than my awful race. That's what I get for going off the line like I did According to my Garmin I went off at a 3:53 pace(must have just been my initial start since there is no way in hell) One of these days I'll try to hang back and run a smart race
