Thanks Jeff… I’m sure we’ll run into each other at the races. We both ran the Soldiers Reunion 5k this year and I finished right in back of you…

That was one of my favorite races of the year… good course, nice trophies, good food, nice people, and my old stomping grounds (I lived in Newton back in the 1960s).

Hope to see you at a future race… give me a yell if you see me.

Wow, 50 pounds and a 1:12 for 10 miles. Great! I think I could run around 1:12 BUT I didn’t weigh 50 pounds heavier a year ago AND I am only 52. I hope to have the pleasure to battle with you in the future.

Bill… With the progress you’re making you’re not too far away from the 7:15 miles, and even faster!

Thanks Stan… Haha… That’s true, it’s another PR for me. Of course, it’s the only 10-mile race I’ve ever run.

Great job on your big marathon yesterday (and Jenny’s half too)!

That’s a tough race! Just another PR for you, every week it seems!
