I averaged in the low 8's today.  Not bad, but I felt like I was still holding way back.  My hammy's still very tight.  I think it's because I haven't been stretching properly.  Guess what song was going through my head this morning?

Hey Burt! I found the discussion about recovery...what a help!! Thaks so much for mentioning this. I have not been doing a good job of recovering - apparently Oreo cookies are not muscle rebuilders! =)

Thanks again.

Rachael

Where do you come up with this stuff...lolz. ;P

From Rhett on Tue, May 04, 2010 at 13:45:02 from 74.32.222.202

I'm glad the hammy is on the way to full recovery. Be careful with it so it doesn't become a chronic problem.

From SlowJoe on Tue, May 04, 2010 at 14:09:31 from 131.59.200.80

You tease... Next time I will think twice before watching a Burt-youtube video at work with the speakers on.

From Toby on Tue, May 04, 2010 at 22:33:26 from 216.194.124.36

You crack me up! Your daughter is such a cutie :)

From Colby Park on Wed, May 05, 2010 at 07:26:01 from 139.139.51.70

Hey Burt, Italy has been a blast. I wish I was able to do more running there though. I was staying at the Hotel on post and the post is really small. If we want to do anything off post as far as running or working out, we have to go with a buddy. Well, nobody wanted to run...it is impossible to run on the small post as well, especially if it is higher distances. Anyway, I am in Germany now with some training and will probably be in Afghanistan by early next week.
