Man, another rough run this morning. My back is feeling a lot better, but not 100% yet. I think sleep and my back/lung pain had an affect on this weeks running. Hopefully next week it gets better.

I'm out of shape...   :(

Good to see you back as the first blog post of the day when I get up Colby.

Just keep plugging away consistently.

I don't know if that is a good thing or not Rob. Waking up and seeing my pathetic running, lol. I don't think I go well with a cup of coffee!

Hope you are doing well. How does the X-country team look this fall?
