Just a quick note...

Well since the Internet has been out all day I finally get a chance to post a quick note. First of all Happy Mother's Day! I hope all of your days were very special. Heather I am very grateful to have you as my wife and as the mother of my children and I love you more than words can describe. I am a very lucky man. Mom, thank you for everything you have done for me and for the support that you continue to give me and my family. We really do love and miss you and dad very much. Becky, I am not sure if you read this, but anyways I just wanted you to know that you are in my thoughts on this day.

I moved into a room without a bunk bed this morning because the rumor is that they are looking for rooms with bunk beds to stick two people into them. That took me most of the morning to tear down my original room and set up my new room. Afterwards, since the Internet was still down I decided to lay down for a "short" nap and I woke up around 10PM and I slept through church. I must have been tired today. With that said I didn't get in a run today and maybe that is a good thing because I think the 26 miles that I put in this week was a shock to my body. This weeks totals are as follows: I ran 26.49 miles, burned 5100 calories during my runs, and the total time for the week was 5 hrs. 9 mins. I will try to improve on those numbers this coming week. Tomorrow is weigh day. I need to start paying attention to my diet. I hate the taste of the water here but ask Heather, I am a water snob!! I need to leave the soda alone and start drinking the nasty bottled water they provide us. I am taking in a lot of empty calories because of it. I think this week I will keep a food journal and put my BodyBugg to work for me.

Well I will end this for now. I hope all of you have a wonderful day today. I love and miss you all and I will talk to you soon. Until next time...

I am "SOOOOOO" glad you did't run today because I would have. My body is beat up pretty bad and I needed a rest. I probably won't run until the Marathon next Saturday. I need to heal up. It will be hard not to run though. My knee was starting to act out. Week rest before the big run should do me wonders. I am proud of all that you do for us. If you are trying to lose weight you know you need to watch the calories in and I think that body bug will work wonders. I will weigh in the morning and let you know if I lost any weight. I feel like I did. You have had an excellent first week. You should be proud of yourself. I will write more tomorrow. You mom cried when she read your motherday blog. love ya dad.
