pride

goeth before a fall? Is a good thing to have? Saves us when all else fails? YOU decide.

We had an amazing weekend. Ladies Represented @ the mini 10k n' the mixed crew took some serious hardware @ the 5k Sunday. Wow. I was humbled by Andrea and Helen-didn't run the race, but biked-in the sweltering F***ing heat, to cheer us on. Nice. Add to this, we placed in various age groups. THIS is what I live for. What joy in the camaraderie. Amazing how someone who prays for invisibility gets recognized. Felt at home. Nice to see Curtis too-he's hasn't been making the scene. AND, the Rolling Thunder peeps were AGAIN nowhere to be found. Amazing. Totally full of crap. The blue people did ok though, less than half the finishers we had, 'bout a dozen more than last year. Just wish Karen wouldn't adjust herself, don't people know there are guys like me out there???

Unbelievably hot, but what a beautiful scene. Kissena really is a gorgeous park, but too damned hot. Spent the pre-run time socializing (yes, you read correctly), and admiring the turtles. Snapping turtles in Queens. Wow.

Nice job people. THIS is what it's all about.


.....we're coming to your town, we'll help your party get down.......................
