Glad to see you back into running. I'm sure it is frustrating to basically have to start over again each year. Look forward to running with you and Leslie on Tuesday afternoon!

I told Leslie I didn't want you to see me all fat and slow!! I tell myself it wouldnt have been this bad if work didn't take up sooooo much time. I have done ogden several times, so I have been able to maintain something in the past.........

It happens to the best of us. I've had my own struggles in the past. This way you can get it over with and move on :-). Besides, I think I frustrate Leslie a little nowadays on trails because I am getting a little faster and we can't visit as much unless I keep looping back.

I am looking forward to seeing you two tomorrow! 4:00 at Einsteins! We may have bad weather, if it is snowing, let's postpone it, as long as it is not coming down I am good.

No pressure Laurie, we will have fun! I am glad you are back at it!

Try and give me some notice if you plan to wuss out, Les. Then I can switch my run over to Wheeler Farm.

Can you pm me your cell number? I am still planning on meeting you guys, but if it is nasty I will wuss out.
