This was my first run in almost 2 weeks.  I put my house on the market last week and have had a ton of stuff to do to get it ready, cleaning windows, yard work, cleaning floors and removing cobwebs.

This was my standard loop in Trinity, north on Greenway, then climbing the switchbacks to get up on top of Trinity mountain and taking Ridgetop road back south, then descending again on Ghost Hill Road.

Hey Mike! I'm moving to Austin TX to work in 3M's Corrosion Protection Products Division. Pipeline coatings, rebar coatings, motor winding coatings, that kind of stuff. I'll be around here until Thanksgiving, so we'll have to get those Point Mallard runs in while I can.

Oh man!!!!Thats where your girlfriend lives right? I was justing getting fast enough to keep up with you. At least now maybe I can place 3rd in some of the local races. My Liz Hurley time was 23:55, garmin showed 23:47 and I felt like I could have done better if I would have pushed myself.Oh well,We will talk soon.

All the house work you are doing should count for some activity.
