May 8th 1 mile Run - Downtown MPLS - let's see here how fast can you run for One mile... starts at loring park and goes for a mile down nicolet... If I would have gotten up early for the Reqestration of this I could have a qauantie for the TC 10 Mile but oh.. I will be in the Lottery for it.

May 17 Let's go Fargo Half Marathon (13.2 Miles) - Fargo ND. doing this because the guys I run with at Lifetime are doing the Full I figure that I could do the Half... and have the cold beer and brats ready when they finish up..

June 1 Buffalo Tri Sprint - Buffalo MN, Last year I did it in between the Rain.. this is a nice one to do for the first tri of the season.... quater mile swim in the lake 13 mile bike ride (very hilly) and a blustery (after Fargo ) 5k Run.

June ?? Looking for another Tri to do here

I don't run much. I'm smarter then that. I walk the dog at least twice a day.

By the way, here's a little math for ya,

Ice + 8K Run = Slip and Slide. Woo Hoo!
