Just wanted to tell you...

Good luck and we're all counting on you, Mike.

"Recovery" weeks as they call them are never easy and heck, we're still putting in some good long miles. over 20 miles.

Ran early this morning (5:15) to try and beat the sun and heat (hahaha...). It has been raining cats and dogs the past few days. In fact, I stepped in a puddle this morning (hahahahahha)...I mean Poodle (hahahhahaha, now it's funny, because I said Poodle...).

60º and wet. Darren and I ran 4 miles at a pretty fast pace. It was obvious we were both struggling to keep conversations going, but a little faster on the way back than on the way out.

17:29 on the way out and final stats:

4 miles

33:24

8:21 pace

Tomorrow is another day...I'm running my 6 on Saturday so I can have two days off before the big week next week with the 20 miler. Mike, good luck on your surgery, we're all counting on you.
