<p>it's been a while since i started one of these things so i'll take advantage of a late bedtime and get it going.</p>
<p>hey all, hope you're doing well.  i try to take a peek in here and read every now and then, but with so much travel lately and with work being as ballistic as it is i haven't had much time for horsing around.</p>
<p>running?  none for me.</p>
<p>but i did just buy a bike.  so as soon as i get over the sticker shock and put some miles in, i'm sure i'll feel better about the purchase.  i don't actualy get the bike until later next week so i'm really chomping at the bit.  i went out for 2 test rides and worked up a good lather doing it.  let me tell you, breathing in the cold air and having it blow in my face felt unbelievablly good.  what a stress reliever those brief rides were, even though they were probably only 5-10 miles total!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>it was great to hook up with <strong>moon</strong> last week and i'm bummed that <strong>kris</strong> was a week late in getting out to the left coast<span id="user_yui_3_3_0_8_130171903856243"><img alt="biggrin.gif" id="user_yui_3_3_0_8_130171903856242" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span>.  i'm thankful that he was responsible the night we went out - i certainly wasn't (shocker, huh?).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>well, go get 'em and get to exercising.  i need a <strong><em>dankinia</em></strong>-like <span style="font-size:8px;">(was that her kr name?)</span> update on the recent goings-on around here.  anyone?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>one of my best friends is stepping in for me and running boston on what would have been my #.  in return, i'm helping him fundraise to exceed his goal for the <a href="http://www.hopkintonrespite.com" target="_blank">Respite Center</a> (the same charity I have run for the last 8 years).  If interested in supporting the cause, please send me a note.</p>
<p><strong>duck</strong>/<strong>jen</strong>, i'm hanging in hopkinton on sunday and monday AM and will be in the city afterwards.  got plans that you feel like sharing?  a PM may be best.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>cheers</p>

<p>Hi <strong>Dan</strong>! <span><img alt="hello.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/hello.gif">  </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>Is anyone else excited to see the effect of biking on <strong>Dan's</strong> quads? </span> <span><img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"></span>  Please swing back in a month and post some pictures for the curious.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm up for my long run.  Schedule says 18.  That seems SO far.  Super nice weather though (30's and sunny!), so just planning on taking it easy and enjoying the run.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck to <strong>Brandy</strong> and <strong>Baggs</strong> on the Ron Daws 25k this morning!  Tough training run for them, but perfect weather.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good runs to all today!</p>

<p>Either way this was a super taxing run but I made it and learned a few things in the process.  I'm so glad I didn't quit!</p>
