Holy Smokes! I’m just recovering from the big race. I put in 20.78 miles today at a VERY SLOW pace. Wow. That is like 1/8 the distance that I put in last weekend. Anyway, I was out smelling the roses. But it’s time to get back to business and document the adventure. This posting addresses… Read More 24 Hour in the Old Pueblo: Lessons Learned
It’s an 8 hour drive back to Sandia Park NM from the 24 Hours in Old Pueblo race. The Brothers Rohwer don’t really talk to each other. What’s the point? After 30+ years of messing around together, there isn’t much to say. But after about 5 hrs and 45 minutes of silence the following conversation… Read More The LONG Drive Home

Tedd and I just completed a ‘practice lap’ at the 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo. Where’s the Lt Col? Funny. The Lt Col had to work. HAD TO. This may be the 1st Friday he had worked in the last 20 years. There was one major accident. That hurt. Not as bad as ‘Cactus… Read More The Practice Lap
