Ten miles in 1:15 with my good buddy Steve Anderson who won the Leopard Run 5k this morning.

47.5 miles for the week! 

Nice night. Went to The Pie for pizza with Jake, Steve and his girls, Adam (Acorn) and his girlfriend Jen. Lots of great runner geek conversation. Watching Oh Brother Where art Thou? with Ann. Possibly my favorite movie. I swear every line in the whole movie is better than the previous one and it starts out great.

so when did Steve run the 10 miles? Before or after the 5k? You never know with him. How is the roller treating you? when I wake up tomorrow morning i will know if I need it back. :) 50 mile week are underrated.

I just lent that movie to a coworker yesterday who had never seen it. Classic.

Rob, we loved that day with you guys. Best weekend in a while. My kids were mad at me the whole way home since I made us leave.

I am one of the few who just cannot get that movie.
