-- Food recommendation:  I’ve rediscovered peanut butter sandwiches, not PBJ, just the peanut butter…oh in the name of Ninjas, they are good!

--  Food thought: The perfect pancake is a work of art, timing, gravity and thermal dynamics.

-- Music recommendation:  Enjoying the bands: Building 429 and The Afters, yes it is Christian rock.  Give it a try!

-- Cookie recommendation:  Ginger Snaps!

-- Am I the only one who watched the USA womens relay team and thought…oh I wish I could fly like those girls…

-- Something in my mind snapped, after the 75 mile Ultra…a marathon seams more do able.  I hope I don’t recover.

--  I think I have a thing for running shoes…I presently have 7 pairs of Nike Air Pegasus shoes in my closet.  Pls don’t judge me…

--  I miss the Road Runner cartoons on a Saturday morning.

--  I never really missed my High School years, but with the Olympics coming, I sure wish I would have ran track more serious. 

--  I really can’t wait for the Summer Olympics to begin, Go Team USA and UK Marathoner Paula Radcliffe

--  Bizarro-World thought:  Who would win in a Mud Run, Gillian or Ginger?

-- Last running movie I watched, Running Brave with Robbie Benson (1964 10,000 meter US Olympic gold medalist, Billy Mills), great story, and a good subject. I highly recommend it.

-- If there was a Big Foot, would he be better at the marathon or sprints?

 -- May 2012…where do the years go?
