But, I took no photos of anything today. so you are spared 1000 wordless words.
Here are some wordless numbers:
5:51, 5:59, 1:52, 1:51, 1:48, 1:47, :48, :47
Those are my 1200, 400 and 200 times at the track today. Right on the marks. Not too hard, not too easy. No major stress on the hamstrings.
It was a beautiful but chilly morning. The sun warmed things up, though. At the end of my workout I chatted with a guy that was doing some 400's. He had mentioned the Seattle half marathon coming up. When I asked was he running it, he said "I plan on winning my age group!" A bold statement. Esp. since he was not your typical distance runner body type. Quite fit but not in the emaciated way of most fast runners. More of a weight room looking kind of guy. Turns out he's military. He also wants to be fastest amongst military entries in the race. Bold. He said he had wanted to race the marathon in Tri Cities but couldn't due to "that business in Iraq". God, I just hate it when a war disrupts my race schedule. Ahhh, he seemed like a really likable guy. Very friendly, and all smiles while running his 400's. That is not usual. I wished him well. I have to make sure to check out his age group. Scott, 35-39.
Well, the Zags are on tv, again. Gotta go.

Just catching up on the blog. Glad to hear that somebody is out on the track! Those times looked pretty good, cold weather and all. Thanks for the photos of Marcus! Haven't seen him since that 10 month old picture.
I got a 2nd place ribbon in the mail today from the Dawg Dash...they should save their money. Talk to you soon.
Keep blogging! Love, Val
