I have five cute kids. And I have some rockin short green racing shorts- I wear them mainly because it embarrasses my wife so much. I like ultimate frisbee, trail running, reading, and cheering for the Denver Broncos!   And I have the absolute best wife in the world.  And I used to run for the now-disbanded national Team Pearl Izumi- Ultra!

Lunch frisbee on a breezy day. We lost the first game 5-4, then had a quick game of 9 people (my team was shorthanded) and got our revenge, 3-0.

I think I would give up running if I could play ultimate frisbee every day. For sure road running, though probably not trail running. But it's a mute point as I can't trail run right now anyway.

Frisbee- great game today, and one of the more tiring. My throws were generally better than usual, especially long bombs. We won 5-3 (scoring the last 4), then I switched teams and we won 3-1, then 1-0. Very tired and sore afterwards.

Out late with the kids at the circus. Since it is in town and going out of business in a few months, this might literally be the only circus they ever see.

AM- After taking the 5 kids to Kinley's basketball game without Marci (Kinley did great- she had 3 shots, I think her first of the season), then gym. Hour bike, 3 mile run- Mission Impossible 3 was on the TV and I felt great, so I added on 2 more miles than originally intended. I'll see how the Achilles feels tomorrow.
