Ok, I know I don’t post anymore, Twitter you know…
Anyway, I ran the half this year and Laura trained for the long leg of the relay but she did not run because Elli needed her more. I enjoyed it and felt good. My knees were a little sore in the down hills, but all is good. I was not able to make my goal pace, but I kept the pace I set this week. Now I have to figure out when to do a Marathon next year and how to train.

Thanks to Dad for helping me turn that old, ugly green dresser into this one for the babies room.
My new masters course is having us use blogs a lot so I am getting to know WordPress better. Check out my masters page, oh and vote in the poll there about my header picture. Hope to update this page more often as well. Sorry I haven’t updated much, my Twitter page has been about all I have been doing lately.
Check out this cool Ted talk about how Grass took over the world, sort of. Neat stuff, new perspective and some great farming/earth healing insights.
Well we did it! Laura and I ran as part of a relay team in the Akron Marathon. Laura ran the first leg, a 10K (6 miles) and did really well. I ran the last leg, a 12.2K (7.6 miles) and made my goal of running under an average of 9 minute miles. I ran a 8 minute 25 second pace and felt good. The rest of our team did great as well. They were Matt, Erica and Jeff. Lindsey ran the half and also did great. Here is a picture form the finish.
