A few updates

First, there is a post coming soon in honor of my beautiful daughter's 21st birthday. Photos are being uploaded. Sorry for the delay, but this isn't something that can be rushed.
Next- an update on my new years resolution, which was to run 3 times a week.
I did not make it for the month of January, when I averaged 2 runs per week. But since the beginning of February, I have hit the target every week!
Which brings me to the final update:
Those Vibram 5 Fingers (VFF's) shoes that I got for running: They are awesome! I love them. My feet love them. My knees love them! I have had to slow my running pace down a little, while I adjust to running in them. But, I am building up a a solid base. My long run is now 4 miles every week.
Yes, they look funny. And, yes, at least one person comments on them, every time I wear them. But, I don't care. They're so awesome, that I'm thinking about buying a pair in black for work.

I signed up for my first 5k of 2011. It's in Troy on April 9th. I'm ready for it.

So there you have it. Nothing to exciting going on. I'm really trying to stay focused on my running goal, until tri season gets going in full force.
