Yes - That is THE Bill Rodgers

 


Bill said he'd join us for our next beer ( I mean run ). Seriously, a great guy, who gave much time to everyone standing in line for his signature. We got two books. Gene also placed 3d in the 40-45 group at the Bloomfield Sunset Classic 5 Miler. Dave sat it out for pizza. Dylan got a medal too in the kid sprints.

HH10 - Snorkel Gear

The episode when Gene wears the snorkel mask and Dave dreams of runaway beer. Rain, rain, rain. oh, and more rain! Ran 20 miles on the Upper section of the Sussex Branch RR trail. Dave seems recovered from his brush with ankle injury, but nearly bonks without enough food. Gene seems almost too fresh. See the map.

Don't Do This Again

 

It took 24 hours for the foot to look like this. I did run one mile this morning for day 67. Dodged another disaster.

The streak continues (we think)

Dave heads out on Pyramid Mountain for a trail run. The scheduled 8 miler is cut short when the right ankle turns badly at mile 2. The last 3 miles are run primarily through swampland. This is day 66 of the streak. Tomorrow will be a slow hobble around the lake for 67...

Lackawanna Tunnel Run

We'll it wasn't the beautiful sunny day we had hoped for. We did find the run a bit longer than planned. See the map here.

12.1 miles in around 9:21 pace - Dave didn't stop his watch and Gene didn't charge his!

5 Bears, 2 Beers, 20 Miles



Dave was all set and on the road when he remembered he left the beer in the fridge, turned around, and retrieved it. This was simply going to be a food episode, however, we saw 5 black bears along the way. PRETTY COOL. We started at the 3 mile mark on the Paulinskill and did a 10 out 'n back for a total of 20 miles easy running.
