July Roll Call - Rich

In July, the runs started getting long enough that I couldn't stand to run on the treadmill anymore. The challenge has been to try to find a way to stay hydrated during the long runs. A few times, Erica has gone along with me on her bicycle that is fitted with a basket and speedometer/odometer. Her basket is big enough to carry a small cooler chest with four icey water bottles. She can also keep me on pace and tell me how far I have gone. It is like having your own spider monkey on your back. Pat should know what I mean.

My cross training has broadened to include the Wii fit board. According to the Wii, I am as balanced as a yoga master. Other than that I have been trying to beat the heat and avoid the rain showers.
