Personal:
Married to Kelly. Have three daughters. Professionally, I am involved with health promotions, so it is great to see people active. Coached track and cross country many years on the Jr. high level.
Still fighting the funny tummy. Tried to run after work and my blood sugar was out of sorts. I felt shaky and weak. I went on the Jr. High track and did a 800 warm up. I did a mile, but only made it a half of mile adn went home. No since in beating a dead horse.
John that's smart to not force the workout when the body says NO. It's taken me a long time to learn that principle but I've gotten better. I may be taking a mulligan myself tomorrow with this stupid abdominal strain thing I've got.
