One other thing I forgot....
I am trying to get better at cardio. For a guy who never ran, I started in May running laps around Lost Lake (about 1.8 miles). Running was an exaggeration. Try stumbling and wheezing. Gradually we modified our workout to three days a week lifting, and three days a week running. I am up to three miles / 32 minutes a session on the treadmill. It is amazing to me that I am approaching 10 miles a week and I haven't died. Then I got this link from an ESPN article. Team Hoyt is an inspriational story about how some people can take a bad situation and make things better. Good read! www.teamhoyt.com

What an inspiration, and we could join them in VA Beach you know! Last time we ran a race has been well over 10 yrs. ago in Hawaii. Maybe it's time to get off our tails?
What a great Team! Wow, it really makes me look at our three flights of stairs differently! That is a wonderful story, thanks for sharing it Vince.
It sounds like you're enjoying your running/workouts too, I remember when you ran in high school, you ran in rain, sleet, snow, or Lander drivers! Nothing stops you!, and you're an inspiration to others too.
Take care, stay safe, and thanks again for a great blog!
Love you,
Mom
