97.5 (I think)

Nice easy run this morning, not even two miles.  Why?  Not enough time in the day to do everything, eh? Early yesterday was a good five-miler, plus later, got in a 75-minute gym/core workout.  So no worries today. Remember, rest … Continue reading

96 Percent ain’t good enough

What are you satisfied with? A 96% would be an “A” on most tests.  Not satisfied with an “A”.  The overachiever in me wants an “A+”. Early this morning, I got an “A”, with a “96″.  I’ll take it and feel very … Continue reading
