I played softball Sunday night and I guess it was more of a workout than I thought. Sprints around the bases and in the outfield didn't exhaust me or anything, but yesterday my hamstrings were like rocks. I didn't have a chance to run Monday, but today I spent 3 miles and a lot of stretching just trying to work out the tightness and soreness. Just a different kind of running in softball, I guess. Probably not ready to race anyone in a 200 right now, but I'll loosen up after a few more miles this week. Now the question is whether I can start writing down my Sunday softball on the blog as mileage.

course you can.

each base add 1 mile.

each hot dog subtract 1 mile.

Dude, your comments post multiple times. Are you just really trying to make a point? Shouldn't you be working right now?

Didn't move into the house yet, that comes in two weeks. The girl I work told me her husband bought a fry-daddy over the weekend, my eyes lit up and she couldn't figure out why (probably because she hasn't put a pizza in the thing yet).

This IS my job. This is what I do. Why aren't YOU at work right now?
