1) We will be traveling up north for Sandy's first ever 50 mile race (North Country Trail Run) on Saturday. Bart Yasso will be there signing his book, so he and I will probably exchange words for a while.....ha. Sandy doesn't have any time predictions, just finishing while the sun is still up! I'll be her support crew, ensuring everything goes according to plan. How many BEvERages will this take????????
2) I'm in week four of the 100 push-up challenge. This was really big in Blogland last year but seems to have lost some steam along the way. It's just something else to keep me motivated to do some upper body stuff.
3) Yesterday at our track workout a soccer coach had his team running on the track for conditioning. These kids had to be between 10 and 12 years old. It was amazing to see how some of these kids ran as if they had never done it before!!!! As Humpty Hump woulds say, they looked like MC Hammer on crack! I was shocked as I saw the kids get passed by members of our group on their recovery laps! I guess video games and parental taxis have eliminated the need to run in some of their lives.........

Where up north will you guys be?? It's funny that I'll be downstate the same time you're up here!
GOOD LUCK Sandy ~ BEST WISHES
and
Ken, make sure you give Bart Yasso some pointers!! LOL.
Have a GREAT weekend....
GOOD LUCK TO SANDY! Have fun being the support crew!
Good luck to Sandy! 50 miles, whoa boy!
Good luck to Sandy this weekend. I am hip to what you said about kids not knowing how to run. My kid looks like he is having muscle twitches as he runs. Hopefully the 2 months of cross country practice and meets will help with his form.
