Dear mom,

Sorry I haven't called.  I just wanted to let you know that I ran 3 miles today.  It was 104 degrees out.  Not much else is going on.  Talk to you later.

Love,

Burt

My mom?

From Burt on Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 16:39:33 from 72.223.80.161

No Catherine. I call your mom all the time.

why would you take the time to type out the word "degrees"?

Sounds like it's time to step it up to the next level, then.

From Burt on Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 16:57:40 from 72.223.80.161

That was for you, and I'm so proud of you.

Cat - I call your grandma, too.

From RAD on Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 22:29:08 from 98.202.23.178

pssstt...I'm not your mom.

From ACorn on Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 22:34:01 from 24.2.76.146

Good to see you blogging.

Love,

Your blog admirer.

From Burt on Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 22:57:35 from 174.235.133.119

RAD - I wish you were my mom. That would be so cool.

ACorn - I admire that you're my secret admirer.

I hope my kids write messages to me on their fastrunningblog page someday. Something more like, "It was great to talk to you yesterday. This morning I ran 20 miles @ 5 min pace and an Olympic gold is within reach." But 3 miles is good too.

From Burt on Fri, Jul 20, 2012 at 17:15:19 from 72.223.80.161

Julie - they will. They will.
