T-minus two months and counting


Isn't that the lingo they use with the space shuttle? That's what I felt like this morning: that I was running with a space shuttle - that would be Mr. Chris McKenna. He never tires - always bounding ahead - without hydration or any noticeable stretching pre or post run. Good thing we gave him the sixth rotation for the run, he'll need that bounding when he is running the 36th leg to bring the team into Chicago in two months. Chris, Joe and I did 14 this morning. Howard out of town, Ken returning from Guatemala, Clint recovering from minor surgery.

So the hotel is booked, van is reserved, each leg is assigned. And Dar our driver can't wait to drive and pray us through the 200 miles. Now we need to stay healthy and get through the River Bank Run in a month. And keep sipping that Udo's oil each day. More on that later - as we head into this final stretch look for more regular updates.
