week 6 wrap

Yesterday, Lar and I were walking to the toy store to get a gift for a friend’s son, and we got to talking about parallel dimensions. Some parts of string theory suggest that there may be 11, some say as many as 26. Basically that means that there could be multiple Kevin’s and Lara’s running around. I joked that I imagined parallel dimension Lara was nice to children. Lara said that parallel dimension (pd) Kevin was probably “rich and good looking.” I then said that pd Lara was probably not a pain in the ass and it all spiraled down from there.
Anyway, it makes you wonder.
Ah yes, the running – This week was a HH step-down week. Long run of 7 miles on Saturday. It’s amazing how strong you feel some days, and other days you feel as though 3 miles is going to be the death of you. Sat run was a struggle. To make matters worse, I only have one orange burst Gu left. I decided to save it and take the strawberry/banana PowerGel packet that I had lying around (it was given to me in the Buffalo race packet). So now I’m feeling weak and I’ve got to choke down warm strawberry/banana jelly. Yeesh.
The positive news is I’ve been much better about stretching and it’s made a big difference. I’m still not being as thorough as I should, but I’m getting there.
Oh and Saturday night, we hunted down this in our basement. This is the largest I have ever seen in any apt I’ve lived in and I’ve lived in some crappy places. The only thing we can think is that it’s because they are doing work next door. Do yourself a favor and click the pic to view in all it’s close-up glory.

“The Prep-Ho Week 6 Recap.”™
1) I could be a weatherman.
2) God and Brett Favre hate Buffalo.
3) Doesn’t the US President have things to do (I mean instead of watching swimming matches all afternoon)?

Nice recap….but, I still crave more stories of those runs where u want to die!
You are a hard man to please.
That’s why I’m Fedex’ing Papa R (see picture above) to you.
That thing is a baby compared to the ones roaming the Capitol. They offer to carry my briefcase in the morning!
I prefer that Bush do as little as possible until he’s out of office…
Did you see the recent Bush/Costas interview? You’ll be happy to know that Bush doesn’t believe America has any problems.
