As you can probably tell, I have a new header. I was going to say I updated my header; but Susan did all the freelance work for me. The emphasis is on “free” however if by some miracle I have a 3rd daughter, I have to name her Susan. Anyway, I was going after an image that reminded me of the trails I love to run on. I need to do some more tweaking with the size and colors, but it’s getting there. Thanks Susan!
I didn’t mention this yesterday but Evan and I had lunch with Nobuya "Nobby" Hashizume yesterday. If you’re not familiar with Nobby, hopefully you will be soon. He’s in the process of organizing the Five Circles foundation which will be designed to carry on the Lydiard name and training philosophies. Here’s another article I found written by Nobby.
I had an easy 8 mile run this morning. I did the same course as yesterday and it took a minute longer. My quads were sore, probably from running pretty hard during the Big 10 meet.
There’s this gal I see on the trail quite a bit, but haven’t had a chance to talk to her because we’re usually going the opposite directions. I saw her this summer too because she worked out with the Minnesota Distance Runner’s Association at the Macalester track on Tuesday nights. This morning I caught up to her with about ½ a mile to go in my run. We only ran together for about 4 minutes but still had a nice conversation. It was the highlight of my otherwise uneventful run.

I enjoyed the read by Nobby on Lydiard and Bowerman. That must have been bodacious getting a chance to meet him.
Any runner that has been at it for awhile should easily be capable of lumbering along for 1-2 hours a day.
Nice new header - Susan is talented!
Very interesting article. Thanks for sharing! How awesome to have lunch with Nobby!
There's a dead squirrel in my back yard that should do the trick!
Nice job again, Susan!!!
I'm jealous of your new header. I need to do my homework and figure out how to re-do mine!
Oooh...I found the bit in the code wherein the secret lies. This will be my project for the evening!
also, so you know, there's a typo in your 'about me' section...the word "altough"
Flatman, if it's already dead would it still count. Maybe we should ask Susan since it was her idea.
Chelle, thanks for the spell-check.
Omg, what did you do? It looks GREAT! I really need to do something about mine...
nice, dude. i like the look. i need one.
