Starting the Week Off Right

Jonnene and I finally got out in the front yard and laid waste to the deep layer of leaves scattered all about the place. It was pure ground assault from the word GO. We can proudly announce that the front yard has been cleared of dead leafy matter, all neatly stored in about thirty 39-gallon plastic bags on our front porch until I can put them out on the front verge for the Tuesday trash pickup. There will be medals and commendations all around for this noble venture.

Finishing up for 2008, I set a couple of new PR's for yearly distance in both cycling and running. I racked up 5,091 miles on the bike which is pretty good since I didn't really start riding until March! And in pounding the pavement I put in a record 285 miles, definitely a grand achievement for me. I doubt I'll surpass the run miles in 2009 but I'm going to try to shatter the bike miles this time.

And, before I forget...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAUL!!
