This is a commando course, in fact Special Forces could train on this course.  I was NOT happy with my time but was happy with my effort. I attacked all the hills with as much as I could but because of my asthma I would walk a bit to regain my breathing.

 Hopfully this work out will help me in the Canyonlands race next Saturday.

Brent and I had a couples deep tissue massage this afternoon and I think it really helped.

Good job finishing under an hour Sylvie! From all the reports it sounds like this certainly is indeed a commando course so I'm sure you earned a few points today!

Sylvie, very good effort, your ready to defend your title next week.

Nice massage today.

Excellent job! 3rd in your age divison? Sweet award? Couples massage sounds delightful!

I love going in for couple's massage! I hope you both enjoyed it! Way to work through the asthma! I can't imagine having that! We are sending all the FRB good vibes your way for this weekend! Good luck defending your title! Can't wait to hear the report! There are lots of us who are a bit jealous that we didn't get in for Moab! However, in Tom and my case, we would have had to cancel because of his dad's funeral the same day. So I guess it was a blessing we didn't get in.

Dear Tom & Kim,

My deepest sympathy to you, my father passed away several years ago he had been ill for years but when he died it felt like a ton of bricks landing on me. Going through greeving is so hard, thankfully my faith helped me through.

Thank you for all your support I'm sure it will help next Saturday.

Christi, No awards till the series is finished, but the massage was some kind of award, even if it was a little painful. thanks for the support.

Sylvie, I am ready for the hot tub, Moab delicate arch and some relazing time after cat baby setting, commando course 10K and all the WOW runs. Don't care about the race time or place, just give it our all and see what happens.
