I'll say a prayer for you, Rob...I know the heartache and impact of sick children. But we got to have priorites right? Keep up the great work.

From Burt on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 12:08:15 from 206.19.214.144

Thanks bro.

From beef on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 12:17:58 from 35.10.58.36

I hope you both feel better soon. Gotta love the winter and the flu/cold season.

From TylerS on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 12:49:58 from 70.102.167.2

Looks like you started out a bit fast and then lost some steam! jk good job on getting out.

From Colby Park on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 12:55:24 from 77.42.98.178

Burt,

Thanks for the comment, sorry about being sick. My running needs to pick up a little bit. I am shooting for a Boston Qualifying time and I feel a bit behind schedule going into the winter season...we'll see.

From runningafterbabies on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 14:03:33 from 24.10.211.135

That's a decent pace for being sicky. Get well soon!

From Burt on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 14:19:56 from 206.19.214.144

Beef - I don't love it. Oh, you were being sarcastic.

Tyler - I've been running real consistent miles lately without even trying, so you're right. Something was off today.

Melody - Thanks. I'm more worried about the baby. Poor thing. :(

From Britta on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 15:20:30 from 99.90.144.83

Hope you and your little one feel better soon.

From april27 on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 16:06:56 from 165.138.243.1

sicky is yucky

From RAD on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 16:18:39 from 67.172.229.125

Good luck getting back on the mend. Those paces seem VERY nice for being sick, well nice for NOT being sick.

I hope your sweet girl gets well soon, that is always an added stress!

Oh, and could you PM me about prices for the recovery drinks? Hubby didn't seem to mind it much and feels better than normal today, so I think he may be sold.

From flatlander on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 17:24:42 from 198.207.244.102

Good luck with the sickness, hope it doesn't last long.

From Mike on Thu, Dec 02, 2010 at 00:51:25 from 66.27.21.113

You forgot to enter your mileage.

From Burt on Thu, Dec 02, 2010 at 10:48:29 from 72.223.84.236

Britta - did you see the picture of your little baby I posted on my blog last week? She's a doll.

April - I got a whole house of sickies now.

RAD - hope you got my message.

Flat - I don't think it will last too long. Thanks.

Mike - what would I do without you?

From april27 on Thu, Dec 02, 2010 at 13:15:50 from 165.138.243.1

take your D3!

From PRE on Thu, Dec 02, 2010 at 20:31:02 from 99.50.214.225

Hey Burt,

Hope you get well soon. I myself have not been putting many miles in. So hard in the winter time.

But I did not realize you had a small child at home (baby maybe). Knew you had six...but did not realize one so young.

So hope that child gets better soon as well.

From Kory on Thu, Dec 02, 2010 at 21:04:40 from 24.116.159.75

Smart for not running when sick. Good to see you out and about running.

From Lily on Thu, Dec 02, 2010 at 23:53:18 from 67.199.181.73

LOL@TylerS

Burt you ought to try washing your hands eh? Germy wormy.

From Burt on Fri, Dec 03, 2010 at 01:48:06 from 72.223.84.236

PRE - My baby is actually almost 4. But she's so tiny and she has down syndrome, so I'll always call her my baby :)

Kory - What are you talking about? Running cures everything.

Lily - to continue with my Airplane quotes from yesterday, "Get that finger out of your ear! You don't know where that finger's been!"

From Britta on Fri, Dec 03, 2010 at 14:09:34 from 99.90.144.83

I did see the picture you posted of my little doll. Let me just say she is much cuter in person. Funny thing is that in the hospital the nurses called my husband and I the Barbie and Ken couple. :)

From Kory on Fri, Dec 03, 2010 at 14:21:11 from 134.50.89.33

"Kory - What are you talking about? Running cures everything."

Will it cure my broken leg today... please. Running does make life fun and relaxing and away from life things.
