Discovered Facebook

If you have never gone to www.facebook.com you should try it. I'ts alot of fun and gives you the chance to talk and meet with friends you haven't seen in years. You can also join and meet groups of people who enjoy the same type of activities you do, such as....Running, marathons, Civil War, Sports, antiques cars etc. Its a lot of fun.

As for my running, all is gping well. Last week I tried trail running for the 1st time out at VanBuren State Park. It was a totally different type of work out. Thats what I was looking for. I think by using different muscles has to be a good thing. The only thing I really didn't like was the horse riders also use the same trails from time to time. So there where pleanty of tracks and holes in the path you had to watch for.

Got the moutain bike out

Ran 15.3 miles yesterday, felt ok, but the legs are sorta tight. I got the moutain bike out & put air in the tires. Went for a nice little 5 mile ride. Was nice to get out side again.

14 Mile Run

Longest run I've done in a while. I got up and out of bed Saturday morning. The weather was about 23 degrees and windy, off I went. I met my friend D.K. at 5:30 AM. We started at her house and headed East we went. She was hoping for 20 miles, but I had to call it early at 14 miles. Just not enough time to get home shower, shave & back to work by 9:00 AM. Oh well, 14 isnt to bad. It felt great to get outside again. Even if it was cold. I have no idea what the wind chill was, but it was ok in my winter running gear. Can't wait for spring to arrive. I'm ready to get the bike out again.

P.S. did 3.54 today at the YMCA over lunch. Just wish I had more time.
