Taking A Week Off

I'm heading to Germany tomorrow morning. I'm scheduled for PRK on Tuesday. The good news? No more glasses. The bad news? Possibility of a week of no running. At least I finished my physical fitness test this last week. Another year before I need to worry about that.

Otherwise, I don't really have much to blog about today. I'm sure I'll come up with stuff next week. Ya'll know how my pain med induced blogs can be.

Happy running to you all.

The World Games

I was watching the World Games today with my girls. It was rather enjoyable. They seemed to actually take interest in the events and even asked me questions. We were watching the 800m heats, the javelin, the long jump and the high jump. Everything was Britian focused of course.

One particular gold medalist was being interviewed. Her discipline? 20K walking. Yep, walking. Truth is, she walked faster than many of us can run. I don't remember her exact time, but it was very impressive. I found it rather interesting.

I was blown away watching the 800m heats. Those guys are freaking fast. I would love to be able to run close to that fast even just for a moment. It was pretty awesome. Guess who won the two heats we watched? Oh, can I have Kenyans for $5000 Alex?

Not much else to report on today.

Happy running to you all.

I'm Back

Okay. I usually blog on Runnersworld.com. But they changed their format and now it...sucks...to say the least. So I shall return to my blogging ways here. In turn I'll post the link to Runnersworld.com if people want to read.

I look forward to sharing with my only two followers at this point in time.

Cheers,
Dennis
