Thursday the 8th of April 2010 6a.m.

Nice morning. Lots of Robins signing.

Angela Mullen running this morning. Seen her truck at the Arena yesterday morning too. Way to go Angela! I waved at Angela as we met by Mac Sub-way. I said good morning but I don't think she heard; she must have had an I-pod on the go.

Met Keith Immaker last week at the arena. His wife signed him up for a 10k run in Bamff and he is trainig hard. He wants to complete it fast.

Rob McDonald, he's running. Hockey over now. He says he has been "tread-milling-it" this winter. He will be out and about.

Derek Holtom is running. Training for a 1/2 in Saskatoon? I think that's where. Met Derrick at noon hour running on the Ag path at the arena parking lot.

I got a new pair of runners. This time I bought Saucony. I have been buying Brooks for many years and I thought I'd try something different this year. So far so good. I've only got about 20 miles on them right now. I did three runs in PlaP over Easter and, including this morning, two runs here. They feel good. Very cushiony. It's surprising how pounded out the old ones get.

Should we run a 5k/10k at Rodeo time again this year? The Rodeo starts on Thursday the 29th of July and the Parade is Friday the 30th of July. I think we ran last year on Parade Day before the parade. We had a good turn out and no problem getting in well before the Parade started.

Keep give'n'er,
gk

Atta boy Gary
put in 13 KM today in 1:16:37.
The dust around town makes those long runs really gritty...
