Thursday run......
As training winds down for me and for all the runners running on Sunday in New York, today called for a 4 miler. Overcast, mid 50;s, wind out of the NE at about 10mph.. The plan was to run easy for the majority of the run with about mile at marathon effort- the conditions led to faster paces than I planned but the effort was very easy. 2 miles at 7 min pace followed by 2 miles at 6.15 pace.... Time now to stretch and relax. The run felt great and I am looking forward to Sunday. Today's run prett… Continue

Jerry: Here's to a successful transplant!
Everyone: Here's something I've always wanted to discuss in a sports format. The year Boomer retired, he was absolutely amazing. He was playing for a so-so team yet continually led them to victory after victory. I was a little surprised he decided to hang it all up. (At least, that's how I remember it.)
One other thing: Boomer came to my CF center one year and gave out 5 autographed footballs in a random drawing. I won one and as I was going up to get it, I thought he gave me sort of an odd look. I think it was because I really don't LOOK like a CFer and I was one of the older ones in the room. I wanted to tell him that, yes I do have a significant respiratory and GI component but didn't get the chance. Anyway, he didn't just hand me the football, he passed it to me. And I caught it! I like to tell people I caught one of Boomer's passes.
Yeah, most people either love or hate the Cowboys. Like I said, though, I'm very loyal to my Dallas teams. Though the Rangers haven't done much in comparison with the Yankees, I really like the team they've put together this year. The one word I would use to describe them is grit. They're a gritty bunch of players, young and old, who don't know how to quit...even when they were impossibly out of playoff contention (see the months of April & May). They have no trouble finding big bats (see Josh Hamilton, Ian Kinsler, Michael Young...). They need bigger arms. The pitching staff is remaining somewhat stable this year - a remarkable feat given the rash of injuries to some of our starters...including Brandon McCarthy.
That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!
Thanks for joining Team Boomer!
