PIONEER DAY CLASSIC










So yesterday Jill and I ran the little pioneer day classic 10k. We did it last year and I shaved two minutes off of my time and Jill shaved a minute. I would have done it faster but I stopped at mile 5 for some twinkies. I did learn two new running terms "stomped" and "chicked". This is when a guy or girl passes you. The reason I say this is that some people are just made to run (me not included). Around mile five I am going along fine averaging a 7:30 minute mile and feeling pretty good when this young girl that I saw at the hobbler half comes up next to me and says "well hello again" as she passes me, just like she did at the hobbler half, thus I got "chicked" by her twice in one month. All that went thru my mind was "wench" as she passed me. Some people are truly meant to run. Jill and I just like going and running. We are training for the Red Rock Relay which is a 186 mile 24 hour 12 person relay race that goes on down south next month. So we will see how that goes.
