Slowish run about town.  

On a different note, my wife works very close to a used book store.  A couple of weeks ago I went into the store and as always went to the Sports section.  Any of the running books that I have ever come across are labeled under "Other Sports".  In this section I came across a book that I had never heard of before called "Running with the Buffaloes".  Needless to say I didn't purchase it at that time.  I guess I wanted to hold on to the $2.99 they were asking for the nearly perfect copy.  A couple of days later I went on the old Interweb and read some reviews for the book...... damn it all to hell, all rave reviews!  I mentioned it to my wife and in between clients she went to the book store and purchased it for me!  She rules.

I've never heard of the book. I wish I read more often.. You'll have to let us know how it is.

Hey Matt..... Nice work on the core lately! I definitely should start doing core & more strengthening.

What actually caught my eye about the book was Adam Goucher's name on the cover. He has a really impressive running resume. Anyways, the book is the story of the Colorado Buffaloes 1998 Cross country season. I'll definitely let you know how it is.

I haven't read it, but I have heard it's very good.
