I did neither of those and still felt bad, for what it's worth. This time of year it just takes a couple of weeks to get dialed in. You still had a great week, though.

poor rockets.

i agree, another good week for you, esp in the soggysop weather.

Did the run straighten you out or make it worse?

A mile for every beer?

stupid hawks.

Way to suffer through, but a fantastic mileage week.

Saturday I watched soccer games in temps hovering between 32-36 degrees with a steady breeze and constant drizzle with mostly rain but occasionally some snowflakes thrown in the mix. I'm guessing we both would've like to have traded places for a couple hours.

And what's up with your Rockets and allie's hawks? Making for an interesting playoffs anyhow. Hopefully my Jazz will be in the mix next year (this year it's only former Jazz players still playing).
