I just said the same thing over on your wifey's blog, but you two race so much. I think you two should start buying stock in the big racing companies. <BR/><BR/>So, are you beginning to think about the death race yet? What will your training be like for that?<BR/><BR/>Happy week!<BR/>Meghan<BR/><BR/>PS. The coffee cup photo was hilarious. I laughed out loud and had to show my friend, who, in turn, said, "Now, who exactly is this fellow?" Heh. I found the whole thing amusing.Meghanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01328667395623963868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8495431905223962790.post-89060371374901612112008-05-06T17:58:00.000-07:002008-05-06T17:58:00.000-07:00Appreciated the report: the race I'd most love to ...Appreciated the report: the race I'd most love to do but can't ever.<BR/>Loved the pictures!!!Sunshinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12381269071684742007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8495431905223962790.post-57217403300403618782008-05-06T15:10:00.000-07:002008-05-06T15:10:00.000-07:00Sounds like a great time - minus the leg cramps. ...Sounds like a great time - minus the leg cramps.
