edpaffjr.comMonday night I had hockey. We lost the game again, but I stopped their goalie’s shutout with just a few minutes left. That made me feel pretty good, especially after playing a not so good game…
Tuesday we ran a couple miles. I guess we really needed to, since we are going to be running a 4 mile race in just over a week from now, The Trolley Run. This one should actually be pretty fun, Todd is going to be running in it and last night Phil said he was going to be walking at least. I think we can convince everyone to run with us, we don’t go that fast at all.
The nice thing is that I’ve been stretching so much that my IT Band isn’t hurting anymore. If you remember from awhile back, I had problems with my knee hurting after running a mile or so. I got new shoes from the running store and started stretching a couple times a day. Kim thinks that the problem has something to do with my tight hamstrings, so I’ve been working to fix that problem. I actually have improved though, and I can even touch my toes now, something that I never really did before!
Yesterday we did another 2 miles. I think we should be in pretty good shape for the race. Marathon runners never run the whole 26 miles in their training, so I don’t need to run the whole 4 miles in my training. :b
After that we met up with Doni & Phil at the Brooksider. I’m really starting to love this place. Doni and Phil are friends with all the locals there, who are most even older then they are, haha. :) The nice thing is that they all are retired and have quite a bit of money. Last night was 2 dollar drinks, so we decided to head up for a cheap night out. We got charged for 1 beer total at the end of the night, and we drank quite a few more than that. All of the regulars buy rounds for everyone, and give you these little wood hearts, which are good for a free drink as well. Walt Disney was there last night, well not the real Walt Disney he is obviously not alive anymore, but this guy is related to the famous one. Anyway, these people are all so nice, and are like having grandparents here in KC. :)
Oh yeah, Phil got pkenagy.com up and running. Check it out, there are some really funny pictures on there! :)
