Regarding Calvin, check out the picture of us running on a nearby trail. I asked this older lady walking on the trail to snap a picture of us with my cellphone and she accidentally got part of her hand in the photo. Oh well. I have been taking Calvin running with me at least once each weekend for about two months now. He loves to go too! I should record a short video of him expressing his excitement just prior to us hitting the trails. It's really funny. I think he likes running even more than I do.
I have been looking for a nearby race to run sometime in the next three or so weeks on the Hi-tek Racing website. They usually have most of the upcoming races in their running calendar. The Spirit of Spring race in Tolland just happens to be this Saturday and I think I'm going to give it a shot. It's ironic that back in 1999 I did the same race and it's recorded in the attached log. It's a bit hilly in places so it's not a PR type of course. Plus, it's actually 5.1, which is a bit odd for races. Anyway, happy running.
