weell, he says he's run 100 mi, which is better than i've done so far. Don't know if he'll be joining this site though. He will be running with us I bet.

Hey this is Pat. I finally figured out the password for this- tried everything from Pre to 'Everyonepayattentioncoachbrististryingtosaysomething' before michael told me what it is. Umm... Yeah. I have about a hundred miles in. I ran about thirty-forty back in december, then stopped, but started at three miles a week for the first week of the year and am now at something like five. But that takes a long time. I run in the mornings. I like running on ice- it makes you run faster and more steady. So I run everyday but sunday. I run around six miles on saturday. For the four morning miles i run a slow first and a hard two and three before a slow fourth. Before my watch broke i was really cruising on those middle miles with around 5:50 on each of them. Running in the morning when it's cold really really makes a body run faster. I don't have Internet so i won't be able to update everyday. i have to use school computers. Besides that, i hear that a group gets togethor every now and again. Updates, please. Can't wait for track season. My sister started training but i don't think she's running to far yet. I also got my dad started again OH! Bloomsday. We really should get a group togethor this year. I want to go sub forty-five this year. I know Fisher (Ronan) ran it in forty-one or something. I don't think it's too hard. I ran a fifty-two last year with a slow last mile. (like eight something) Okay.

haha way to bribe us bill... bloomsday would be sweet but doesnt it usually fall on the day of a semi-important track meet?

I'm okay with that. Everyone will be running only one race at Archie Roe this year, so we can leave right from the meet heading through Libby over to Sandpoint and to Spokane. We'll need to get Motel's booked early. Like really soon. See who may be interested. I just heard a rumor that a couple of individuals picked up a book for you. Bill

I'm definitely interested... When do we need to register, get hotel rooms, etc.?

oh wow, that's soon. i'll see what i can do about rounding up some girls

The plan would most likely go like this. Saturday - Archie Roe meet. Once we finish we load up and head to Spokane. We'd get call to be sure our rooms don't disappear, and grab something to eat along the way. Most likely in Libby or Sandpoint. Then we reach the motel. Go for a quick jog to loosen up, and hopefully meet someone who has picked up our race numbers. The next morning we head to the starting line and have a great run. After the event and the festivities, we head back to the Flathead Valley so that all may get enough sleep for the next morning at school (and work).
