Most of the T-shirts I have XL,but I think people get take them.But if DE shows up I might not have his,because he needs XXXL T -shirt I can have his T-shirt made for him.You know who I am talking about the guy who speaks Swahili with you in New York area.

Henry

Henry,

I have the additional copy of "Olympic Dream" that you sent to me on Feb 8th. Thank you. I am sure John will enjoy it.

Good running this weekend

Enjoy!

Henry,

I wanted to let you know that I was talking about you while I was running with a friend this evening. He didn't know who you were, so I told him about your life and achievements. He was very inspired! I told him to look up the name "H-E-N-R-Y R-O-N-O" on the Internet. After he got home, he looked you up, and sent me an email, saying "like you said, this guy is awesome!"

Best of luck this weekend, Henry!

I didnt get to sell my T-shirts in this meet.I soon as I got there I was so busy until I left there last night.I am not used to cordinating business of selling and running at the same time.But I am learning day by day.

In California was great because, it was for that special day working at the sports store made it easy to sell T-shirts.

I am very sore from this half marathon.My projecting time fail because I mass it up by following Steve Jones leg pace. Not only that I had too much in head, more than,my physical have.I also under rated Steve not knowing that he is in good shape so by following him very aggrissivelly.Thinking that I was going to kick his ass,he ended up kicking my ass at the 10 mile mark.But then my legs are already beaten up so bad.I was only dragging my feet to finish with time of 1:43 and change.Half way of this race I was on target,because of running stupid I got 2 minutes slow than last year time.

Hi Henry,

Terra and I ran Nationals in San Diego on Saturday and then drove over to Phoenix to see a friend. We would love to drive to Albuquerque and run with you if that's ok?

Take care,

Kevin

I want you to be in a posotion where you learn my prescription running medicine.This is how I humble my friends and athletes nowadays.By the time you go back home you will be happy you came to meet my running group and take the light of running no kidding.

The athletes I have here now they enjoy it and of course me, I have live all my life in the in bottom of the hills.I rise up in the morning to the top of the hill and meet the Sun up there.

My running wheels are listening to me this year more than last year.My head tells me that I am getting faster and faster way better than last year.

Starting off the 5k Feb 10,2008 with time of 19:48 here in New Mexico is the direct indication I am right on the money, in the Jar.Stay tune, the light is up!

Oh,yeah!This is what I got morning:35mwp +21mhc +14mcd =70 minutes despite the tiredness of the race at Run Texas half-marathon yesterday.Do you understand this formula?

M=minutes

Wp=warm-up

H=hill

C=cool

D=down

I hope you understand my formula.Help me out to write a better formula, that produces good performances.

Do you have any ideas running through your mind about this?

Henry

Henry,

It was so great to finally meet you! What did you think of Austin, Texas?

I had a good time with you guys,socially we were all having great time.I felt like living there instead of coming to New Mexico.Talking and taking photos with Dick was the most happy moment.

Dick also was having happy face and socially approachable. You and your sister notice how runners are socially happy smilly people,when they have good condition.And you made us friendly and socially punch.

did you run the 1/2 marathon at Austin? I didn't see your name in the results. I hope you didn't get injured and drop out; but just decided to concentrate on your coaching duties and not run.

I cross the line with 1:43 and change.Oh they did give me the chip on my leg.I just ran without one only the number,so that I would look like a runner.But I finished with two minutes slow than last year.Why because I ran like an idiot( I had too much in my head)my plan was to improve last year's time of 1:41 minutes by ten minutes in which I had it when I reached 10k.The pain was lingering in my right leg,by 15k another shows up in my budd,meanwhile my right hamstring telling me to stop.I ignored and took a drink that cool me down for awhile.

It was getting toucher towards the end of the race.In between my legs I was bleeding.The adductors muscles are out of shape, too much fat in it I notice that after the race.The all last night my hipp abductors and adductors was in pain as hell I couldnt turn around in the bad.I made it through safely.I was able to jogg this morning for 70 minutes up in the foothills.Today I am healing up and take one day at the time. Right!

henry

That was a really hilly course. It was nice to ride in the truck and watch though. Dick is a great guy. It was fun listening to you and him talk.

Hi Henry,

I'm guessing you can run about 1:35 given you endurance base and 5K time trial @ 6:30 pace. Dropping 6 mins off last one would be good anything faster would be a great race I'd think.

Do you plan to negitive split the race- get to about 12K well with-in you capabilities and then push it in the last 5 miles or so or run an even pace banking on your endurance holding you steady at 7 something per mile?

The most important is enjoy your trip and stay well.

Best,

Tom

Looks like you got caught up in Steves early 6:40s. From the splits I found it seems you guys kept it up until 8 or 9 miles. Too fast I'm afraid. Let's chalk it up as running someone elses race plan and move on. Glad to hear you met some nice folks and had a good time.

Being both a businessman and runner is hard, only trial and error will tell you how to devote race weekend hours so both goals can be obtained. It hard to have your mind in two places .

best

Hi Henry,

How does Wednesday morning sound? Terra and I will be there tomorrow night and ready to run at 7am with you and your running friends. Could I get a address so I can Map Quest it from here.

See you them,

Kevin

My runners will be not there on Wednesday because the lawyer and the pilot are both busy on that day.One flying the plane and the other one prosecuting people in court. It is going to be only me on Wednesday and you can joint me without these runners.If you want to meet them, come on Thursday with fast leg speed to keep up with their pace.But running with me, you will be bored until I take you to Rono's hill repid,that is how you enjoy my leg speed.

Henry

That is correct Tom!We did it as you were watching on TV.Steve which I thought was out of shape, but he was not,I was.Somewhere along these lines of 8-10 miles I didnt see him again.I was gone.I dont even know how he finished up.Oh well I will see him in another race.

Henry

Hi Henry; It sounds like you had a great time- Steve Jones must be inn pretty good shape. That was a good run for you.

I hope you're not to sore today. Cheers K
