<p>Hi all, and again, I have been lax at posting, but as I went for an early morning run today I thought I would get in while I can. I'm presently over in England, awaiting the arrival of Maisie Moo!, my soon to enter the world first grand-child. She was due yesterday, but no signs yet. I'm staying with friends in the High Peak area of Derbyshire, where I used to live in the 90's - when I was running long and hard. They live along the canal where I used to spend a lot of time training, and this morning, myself and Tracy, my hostess, went out along the canal towpath for a run of around 9Km, in a little over an hour, at a very leisurely conversational pace, with her two dogs running along with us - It brought back fond memories of faster times.......  Seems my daughter is going to help my training by keeping me waiting a little longer, so I may get a few more runs in along this beautiful area of the country.</p>

<p>Happy running to everyone...</p>

<p>5.3 miles for me. I'm having a lot of aches and pains. Last week it was the hips, now it's the right knee. Had to stop and walk at mile 0.5, then just ran through it. Didn't hurt anymore till I stopped running. Tried something different this past injury. Immediately came back to 5 days a week of running instead of running every other day for a couple of weeks, 4 times a week for a couple of weeks, then up to 5 times a week like previous injuries. I'm keeping the milage low (around 25-28 MPW), maybe I'll have to cut back. Only missed 6 weeks. Yeah, this old age stuff sucks, but I guess it beats the alternative.</p>

<p>Can't really compare the MIL to Everybody loves raymonds MIL since I've never seen the show. I refuse to call her mom though, since she's only 10 years older than me. (I'm 11 years older than my hot little trophy wife <span id="user_yui_3_3_0_8_130755075378115"><img alt="smile.gif" id="user_yui_3_3_0_8_130755075378114" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"> , cradle robber that I am) Today I'm taking the day off work and taking her down to the redwoods & the coast.</span></p>
