trail runner
my friend Dave Dehart gave me a call late last week and said my mug was in the latest issue of Trail Runner magazine. turns out, the photo was of Dave & I from the 2003 Kettle Moraine 100 Mile where he finished third overall. i simply paced him from 62M to 81M. honestly, it was pretty cool to be in a nationally distributed running magazine. (i’m on the right with my head down so i don’t trip)
training-wise, i backed off a bit last few weekdays so i’d be ready to roll on the weekend. i still don’t have any firm racing plans but i’ve been able to maintain a solid level of motivation as of late without having a specific goal to shoot for.
