Merriest Christmas!!


Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you have a really blessed time this year! Hopefully you'll enjoy time with family. As a semi-empty nester I look forward to my sons and sweet daughter-in-law coming home for Christmas. We have fun and enjoy each others company!!

On another note-I have noticed motivation creeping back.....I need around 5 miles to break 1500 for the year. This has to be reached...right? So today, after my meeting with some folks from India, yes India, this will be cool, these are natives from India that are Christian missionaries in that country.

Anyway, I hope to get out and log some real distance instead of short jogs to the mailbox, etc. I think the body is as healed as it will ever get....aches and pains are the new normal when you get to my age!

Again...Merriest Christmas!!! Peace!

Merry Christmas and good work on your total mileage for the year. A lot of those miles should count as double because they were run on hills. :)

merry christmas to you and your family!! ohh 1500 miles, piece of cake :)

Ahem, I wouldn't know anything about the aches and pains that come with being an older runner, cough=) Don't forget you have really pushed yourself physically this year! I'm glad to hear the motivation is returning. I personally can't wait for warmer weather to get me over the humdrum of winter cold. Sounds like you have a wonderful family. May God bless you over the holidays and New Year.

Hey Mark,

I hope you and your family had a blessed Christmas. What a wonderful time of the year.

Did you get those pesky 5 miles in yet? 1500 is quite a lot. I know becuase I don't think I will make it there. I am at 1461 and just did my long run(s).

Good to hear the ich is back to hit the roads.

      This is the most wonderful time of year! I love the heat and humidity! Yet I still get out earlier due to my advanced age! 4.4 miles! ...
