Laurie writes poetry in her mind while running and I try to craft legal arguments to help our clients prevail against the injustices they suffer in his "book 'em danno" town I live in . . . sometimes I think poetry would be so much more mind centering and calming for me . . . although there is only so much I can with Roses are Red, Violets are Blue . . . .
I went to the gym on my lunch hour to run the TM and figure out how to exclude a UA taken from our client during a DUII investigation, and pounded out 3.5 miles while doing so. Still don't have the argument perfected. Maybe I should combine my two talents: Roses are red, violets are blue, I'll pretend my client didn't pee, won't you??
nah, it's not working . . .
I have a 5K in the a.m. - first one in two yrs - I'd like to PR (24:48), but not sure I have it in me. I can maintain 1 mile under an 8 min/mile, but not sure I can do it for 3 miles . . .

Have been riveted to the local news and emails from friends with pics of flooding and beach erosion at my beloved shore. My town even got a spot on the network news. Just remembered that I left lots of stuff out on the lawn last week - a flag, a couple of other lawn ornaments. Wonder how far they've blown and or floated away by now?
Good luck to all of the weekend racers. Have a greta weekend, everyone!

Hi, folks. not much running lately, so correspondingly not much writing .
But I thought I needed to drop in and mention a race result that someone is too shy to mention. I was looking through our town paper and saw a mention of a 5K that was run around our lake last weekend and checked out the AG results.
One Marj (of henrun and marj) won the 60-64 AG with a highly respectable 28:51 in a field of over 500. Guess Spain agreed with them. better get on CR and see how Henry did. The overall winner was a 51YO with a 16:21 . The women's winner was also a master, but only 43.
eta: Just checked and that was one fast field--the 3rd place women's overall was a 65 YO at 21:57. And the 1st 5 in the 70-74 men werre under 25:00.
Need a fast half for late fall. Then I need to actually train for it.
Deb, Goldilocks = "just right"
I should've known.
Tammy, good luck!
Woods Lady, it's good to hear from you!

Good for you and sadie DG
There's been long days at work. Today, the boss chased me out very soon after I got in. I rushed home and worked on the house and spent time with Tag. Thanks goodness for DD#3, or the poor guy would have spent even more time alone. I picked DW up at work and we went to my brother's for his 40th birthday. He's reclusive. However, he does have a date Saturday. DW and I won a contest and a requirement was to attend a dance to 11:00PM. We wound up with an oil change and a pizza. We spent much time on the dance floor and ran into many friends. A life time ago, I made tips dancing. I was warming up a bit and a woman in red leather pants put herself between DW and me. Right away, I toned it down and got close as possible to my lifetime dance partner.
When we got home, we got Tag's racing shirt out. He tried sticking his face in it. He's ready to go.
