 Seth has a commandeered the slider Whoa, it's tomorrow the rust buster February 24th. I Wasn't positive that I was gonna race this this race, but things fell into place. True loves a Gonna stay back with the kiddos. Thanks, hon Cuz it's gonna be cold so no one's gonna come out and cheer. I'm just gonna go out and get her done It's in the black forest about an hour south of Denver, and I don't know the exact Conditions, I believe it's on it's on dirt roads. Essentially. I wish it was on trails It's a 20k and I have not raced since November. So this is a rust buster. That's exactly what it sounds Like is you just get the rust out of your legs. I have not really trained for this race at all Or I'm definitely not just training through to get ready for bigger races down the road But it always helps to tow the line, you know get in that mental state of racing So that's what we're gonna do tomorrow, and I'm just laying out and another challenge I'm not I don't love running in the winter racing in the winter I'd much rather race in the summertime when it's nice out. You know what I mean But because you've got to play in your clothing much much differently So you got to have clothes for the warm-up clothes for the race And almost the most important is clothes after the race unless you have a building to go into like you Don't want to be out in your sweaty clothes when it's freezing out So I got to pack a little bit more this time and it's gonna be interesting to see what I end up racing in I have a suspicion. I'm gonna end up. I'm gonna end up in shorts But if it's freezing out, I'm gonna have to race in tights essentially racing tights. So Spandex, you know good old spandex. All right, that's all continue Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention remember yesterday's vlog. I Attempted to buy some running shoes the Nike react and or the hocus-tinsons just tested them out But the boulder running company did not have my my size So today I ordered from eBay and the running warehouse. I love the running warehouse, by the way I think it's just an easy website to use and it's an online source for running gear Obviously because it's called the running warehouse. So I got I ended up getting the stinsons and the challengers But last year's model saving money and I'm excited. They should arrive on Wednesday. So thank you eBay We're back in the shed. It's freezing out, but I'm not forgetting the comment of the week this week I remembered sorry. I dropped the ball the last couple weeks, but we're back. It goes out to Michael Lardisable lardisable and I say the sorry Michael I didn't get that right, but he said and I appreciate you commenting on the the the vlog that was titled family tradition And this is what he said Confession in my rather long hiatus on YouTube I watched a lot of your videos and didn't comment during that time But one of the things I love about your videos is that your you look is that your love for your family really shines through? And I deeply respect that about you also that is a really neat tradition with the pictures I don't have any kids yet, but I know that the pictures I have with my parents when I was really little are really special And I think that's a wonderful way to welcome your new ones into the world. Have a great day, man Michael, thank you for your comment for recognizing that yeah Family life is a little insane sometimes with little kids, but it's like that's that's life. That's what it's all about It's the craziness that makes life fun and exciting and a little You know test your limits at times But like that sacrificial love is what it's all about so I hope and it sounds like you've recognized that Michael in this daily vlog So thank you for typing that comment and sharing your thoughts here on this channel.
