Just two miles on the treadmill. Bandaged again. I have really sensitive skin that tends to react to adhesive in a bad way. I am a little afraid of a reaction, because I don't want to pull off skin to create a wound around my wound.

Totally not why I only ran two miles, though. Just felt two miles was okay for today. Need to decide my next goal. I don't do well without a goal on the horizon.

How about your next goal be to run a Ragnar? With me? :)

Tell me more. Can't doit this summer, but I would be up for that at some point. A destination run sounds perfect.

Chicago's not much of a destination. Plus that one is pretty crowded. I can be convinced to run somewhere cool. Vegas? CA? Does OK have a good draw?

Colorado Ragnar.

Sounds scary, but I'm not ruling it out. I don't ever run anything but flat. Do you think I'd die with the elevation?

September 6 and 7...is that Labor Day weekend?

From Burt on Fri, May 03, 2013 at 19:45:12 from 72.223.88.98

Yes, but Labor Day is the 2nd.

Tracy, there are really nice trail races up north in MN, WI, and MI. I do an ultra up there once a year, but they have all distances covered at some races. I Love running through the woods and prairie like a kid. The trail systems blow away those here.

Bob, did you ever run at Kettle Moraine? I have heard great things about the endurance runs there.

From SlowJoe on Sun, May 05, 2013 at 19:21:55 from 96.61.24.215

I would love for you to come to OK for a visit, but no, nothing here. At all. Because we are virtual friends, it's my duty to give it to you straight.

From Tracy on Sun, May 05, 2013 at 19:51:21 from 50.103.254.253

Don't feel bad. Illinois is underwhelming too.

From Tracy on Sun, May 05, 2013 at 19:58:08 from 50.103.254.253

I mean, I guess we have Chicago, but chicago's not really part of Illinois.

You've got Ratatouille.
