McCain/Palin Are in Town
Senator McCain and Gov Palin are in town tomorrow, so we’ll battle the thundering mass of humanity at the airport to go see them. Coolness abounds…

Agony of Da Feets
Against my better judgment the spousal unit and I signed up for our second distance race. Last weekend we finished the Amercan Discovery Trail (ADT) Half Marathon here in Colorado Springs. This comes on the (sore) heals of the Colfax Half Marathon in Denver earlier this year. Our goal for Colfax was to finish, and we managed that. My goal for the ADT was to knock 20 minutes off my time, and lo and behold, I dropped more than 40 minutes. I still finished near the bottom of the pack, which should give an indication of my running prowess, but it’s amazing how much you can improve if you actually train.
Now the wife has her eyes on a full marathon for next year. What have gotten ourselves into???
