5-6-7-8.4!

What is it they say about best laid plans-well we smashed them this weekend!
The idea was to to run 5 miles this past Saturday. Sarah had the idea to run from Champlin to the Coon Rapids dam and back. We figured that would be ok, then we could walk all that we needed. It was a stupendous morning for a run and that trail has enough shade so that you are not constantly being baked in the sun. We made it there ok, it was a little rough for Sarah & I since neither of us have run much in the past month. Then we got to cross the dam which felt like a reward because of the cool breeze from the water. Tony was on a roll and he like Forrest he just kept on running. Sarah and I ran 3 more intervals back them walked. This is where Sarah and I get the award for being directionally challenged, we missed our turn off on the trail and we walked another mile and a half! Daoooo!!! We scared the crap out of Mike and Tony but we were moving for 2 HOURS!!! That is 1/3 of a marathon! Movin' right along!!!

Have a great week!
Congratulations Dale JR on a spectacular finish at Michigan Sunday!
