I ran with the bbk group this morning and met extra early and did 3x3.3 mile loops with them and then finished .2 or whatever it was off.  That group is getting huge! Im impressed with eveyones talent. I think Scott should get most improved player of the group! I think I have a new nemesis. Ill get you! haha My watch is doing weird things again. Dang! I dont have the money to go buy another one. I should have bought one for Christmas! Or asked Santa at least!

I had the same thought about my watch. I should've got one for xmas but we decided on Hawaii. I hope mine doesn't crap out soon.

From walter on Thu, Jan 08, 2009 at 10:52:21

Make sure you use it in Hawaii! I like to download my info and see when I go to different places.

Good to see you this morning Walter (for about 3 seconds). Scott has gotten speedy and too darn skinny. I am excited to see how he does next weekend.

Are you (and your wife) still on for Del Sol????????

From wheakory on Thu, Jan 08, 2009 at 14:00:47

Great workout. Your watch is it still under warranty? You might check to see if you have the latest software update.

I tested the hard drive that you sent me and it's damaged, but I'm going to try a low level RAW recover (that's a geeky computer term) to see if I can get the data off of it.

Have a great day Walter.

No my watch is too old. I have cleared it several times.

Im probably most concerned about my Quick Books on it. I dont really need anything else from it. I just need the missing month that was on that one.

From walter on Thu, Jan 08, 2009 at 23:00:26

Kelli, I was only near you 3 seconds, but Scott was like a half of a second. haha. I feel good running with you guys. Im getting up at 5 in the morning again and I feel like my life has purpose now.

From walter on Fri, Jan 09, 2009 at 09:29:45
