Good luck with the 10K, I like the pictures you posted the other day. My sister lives in Gilbert so we go day there to visit every now and then.

Burt, no doubt, without Gwen, you are not a music fan, no IPOD for you? Gwen Stafanni is the lead singer for the group No Doubt. They are going back on tour after being apart for a number of years.

Stay Kool, Sing Along, B of BS Rools out

Good luck this weekend! I'm sensing there is a PR coming your way...

From Rhett on Thu, May 07, 2009 at 14:28:33 from 170.215.58.122

I ran into Dan Kuch at the store yesterday and he is running the 10K in Kingman on Sat also, so I guess you'll have to shoot for second place since he is sostinking fast.

From montelepsy on Thu, May 07, 2009 at 15:18:48 from 64.235.121.163

Good luck on your 10k. Hopefully that hill workout will pay some dividends.

From sam on Thu, May 07, 2009 at 16:33:49 from 90.195.99.31

no sightings!

Good luck with the 10k I a sure you will do a pb, hoping you feel full of energy today holding back the pace....

Gwen stafanni loving it! I Like Pink at the moment, poker face gets me through some tuff wind here in the uk, we should be called not the windy city but the wet and windy island!

Dustin - what's your SIL's name. I'm sure I know her. LOL.

Brent - I figured out what you were talking about this morning. My wife is into more recent pop culture so she was able to explain. I'm old school. (BTW - They pick nobodies to be on that show and try to turn them into sombodies. Every once in a while they find a diamond in the ruff like Carrie Underwood.)

Rocket - I hope your clairvoyance serves me well.

Rhett - NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!.....NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Come on!! What does he need to be in this rinky dink race for? It's bad enough I was going to get beat by Dan Springborn. And what's worse, they're both in my age division.

Mike - Hill workouts combined with speedy arms.

Sam - there was no mouse sighting, but there was a Su Li sighting.

sorry burt commented on wrong day DUH!

From Eric Day on Thu, May 07, 2009 at 18:49:20 from 189.192.239.113

Go Burt Go.

Kill the 10k, just like you did with the mouse. No cars to worry about while racing.

So then, at least a third place?

Good luck.

From Kelli on Thu, May 07, 2009 at 22:17:31 from 71.219.98.88

SUPER DUPER good luck on that 10k. I will patiently wait for MY report!

From Steve P on Fri, May 08, 2009 at 11:22:18 from 155.100.236.38

Best wishes on your race, Burt!!

From Burt on Fri, May 08, 2009 at 13:07:42 from 98.167.151.26

Thanks Eric, Kelli, and Steve. (and everyone)

From sam on Fri, May 08, 2009 at 15:17:15 from 90.195.99.170

Keep it good, have a nice rest and give that 10k some stick! Good Luck
