usual suspects, except Bob McB. So we talked a lot about him because he wasn't there to defend himself. Rumor is, he'll be back grumpier than ever in the next week or so.

I was there early so I used my awesome channeling powers of the early Viking navigators. I looked at seaweed, shape of waves, smell of algae, angle of duck's wings as they landed, etc. I determined that we were going to hit it perfect. There would be light wind from the south building up until we would get fantastic runners from Governor's point. So of course this is exactly how it went down. And now the Larry's are calling me 'the duck whisperer“. For some reason the way Duncan and Mark smile when they say that makes me think it's not a compliment. I don't care. It was a great run. I'm feeling frisky so I'll do the Jerico race this Sat.

Afterwards we grabbed coffee and as soon as LB left - Neal, Mark and I got busy solving the world's problems. We got things hammered out pretty good, but as Neal said, nobody wrote down a thing and none of us will remember how it was supposed to work.

While we were discussing the state of matrimony I asked Neal and Mark about diet vs exercise. Just hold on, this will make sense in a minute. I think it's all about good exercise. My lovely bride thinks diet trumps. So we're basically arguing “gozinta's” vs “gozatta's” here. Neal and Mark are two very well seasoned coaches. Maybe too well seasoned, but I digress. I thought these guys would back me up. But nope. They both say that you can't exercise enough to overcome crap diet. But you can eat well enough to retain good health with light activity. Dang. I got depressed. So I ate two chocolate chunk cookies and now I feel great again.

Life is good.

RD, I think what those two coaches and your wife are saying about diet vs excersice, and which is most important, really only applies to those who are 66 years old and drawing social security and actively using medicare a lot. Which is us. Really young guys, like Crider, Josh, Steve, DJ, Austin, Carter, Bob P ,Can eat about anything and still go like stink. All about age and how much extra fat you've stacked on, and should get rid of. Big Wave D

OK, now I have it from CIA intelligence , that a certain Reivers D is doing 2 a days. Caught riding his bike on Samish, probably 40 miles or more,Larry B, what are we going to do if he's that fired up this time of year? Woe is us. Maybe he'll blow up or be bored in July. D

Dunc, I don’t know! I’m thinking age regression. These Tuesday and Thursday sessions seem to having me playing catch up to the leaders. And my back is still tight as a banjo. It sucks. The beautiful diet my wife has me on to make me live to a hundred seems to be depleting my energy level. Larry B
