Run for the horses

On May 9th there will be a new run at Chester Woods. Its called " Run for the horses " and is being put on by the Rochester Equestrian club. Good luck to race director Audery Lidke and others. I'll probably run it to see what its like to actually run a race there myself. Here is a link to more info.

Goodbye fishing hello running


OK I'll try to get some current blogs going here.
I stopped into our cap supplier yesterday and picked out a new style cap for CWTR 2009 . Its going to be a good piece of head wear to wear throughout the running season. The 2009 cap will be a lighter, running style cap as opposed to the heavier one we had last year.
I'm transitioning from an ice fisherman back to a runner right now. My training is in its early stages and is going well although I seemed to have pulled a muscle in what Forest Gump refers to as the " buttocks" :-). Usually about November I cut way back on my running and get my ice fishing gear out I still get some pretty good workouts in because where I like to fish its about a 1/2 mile drag to pull my 190 #s of gear. Its always been my belief that its good to have a little break from running, that way its fresh and fun again come early spring.
