First Online Donation

"You have to forget your last marathon before you try another.  Your mind can't know what's coming."- Frank Shorter

Another beautiful, chilly but sunny day in Rensselaer.  I had a good run this morning with one member of the Cheyenne Running Club, Randy.  (What happened Carol?)   It was just one of those almost effortless mornings where I woke up easy and floated along for 6 miles.  When I returned home it was as though an eternity had passed, I was changed for the better.  It was as though I were a monk who had just left the abby of the road ready to go out into the world for a while, knowing full well that I would soon be able to return to the solace of running.

So it has been a good week of running.  Things are coming together for the Chloe K, and I received an email last night saying that they had received our first online donation of the year.  Thanks Steve (The Great White Myth.)
More later...
