What a way to start out the new year.  Nothing too fancy.  Nothing too long.  My last two runs have only been 3 miles each.  I'm glad I decided to go longer today, because it wasn't until after 3 miles that my shins began to loosen up.  

Time - 47:46 (avg. pace 8:30)

Splits - 8:17, 8:28, 8:24, 8:33, 8:49, 5:16 for 0.62 (8:28 pace)

And what would the start of a new year be without me giving props out to my fellow bloggers?  Let's hear it for Lyns who just this last week learned she would be cast in the Michael Bank's workout DVD.  She's also been quoted as saying, "I am a different person after a workout."  She's right.

Way to start out the new year with a solid run.

From Burt on Fri, Jan 01, 2010 at 23:47:28 from 98.177.216.165

Hi Lyns! Yep, with a body like that, there's no way they'll keep you in the corner.

From TBarlow on Fri, Jan 01, 2010 at 23:51:54 from 216.194.124.36

Wow - I wish I had arms like that!

From flatlander on Sat, Jan 02, 2010 at 09:06:03 from 198.207.244.102

Burt, good run and happy new year.

From Lyns on Tue, Jan 12, 2010 at 00:40:57 from 75.162.196.36

You've jaded me Burt! Now every time I see this picture of Michael Banks all I can see is my big fat head and his body. :) And do you know how many times a day I see this very picture?

From Burt on Tue, Jan 12, 2010 at 10:26:07 from 98.177.216.165

As long as your husband isn't too affected. If he seems a little withdrawn, maybe more distant, you'll know why. For that I truly apologize.
