NASCAR guys are in Vegas for their banquet. Will be hangin' with them!... Kind of... Same State. Same county. Same City. Of course the only one I care about is Jeff Gordon. So if I see him... Oh yeah! Almost forgot there is a little run I am doing. Rock N Roll Half Marathon. Everything is set and ready to go. No PR this race I predict but will just enjoy the run. Never know what will happen once the race starts but am just hoping to be close to 2 hours. 1:50 being my best HM, I honestly don't think that will be within reach this time.
Got in my last long run Monday night as I missed my Sunday run. Really good run . Got in 10 miles. Run again Thursday night and want a short easy run sometime Saturday.
So follow me on Twitter for my absolute most exciting can't miss updates on what the hell I am doing!!! Richrunning92
But if I see Jeff Gordon I may get a PR!!!

Everything was going along today just fine. Was getting some work done, settling in to watch Jeff Gordon turn in a brilliant(?) 18th place finish and heading out for a run after the race. But in middle of the race got a text from my sister that my dad is in the ER. So I put some pants on... No, actually I just put CLEANER pants on and headed to the hospital.
And there he was laying as helpless as can be. Tough seeing your dad like that. The one person I have always looked to for well... pretty much everything. He's always been a tough dude and a great provider to his family. The one I always look to in business. I always know I have him to fall back on. When things go wrong in our business he always has to come up with the answers to fix the problem... When things run smooth I will ALWAYS take the credit!!!
He's always been someone I have looked up to. Supported me through all my stupid racing of motorcycles, cars and playing hockey crap. He even raced and played ALL of those too! Yeah, he is a crazy bastard! But a super great dad. Puts up with way too much from me... not to mention others in my family. Don't know how him and my mom did and do it. They keep going even at their age, doing for everyone else. Taking no credit just doing it.
He's had a tough 2 weeks since his surgery and thought he would bounce back like he always has but this one has taken more out of him and he needed to convalesce maybe a little more. Maybe, just maybe he should have listened to my mom a little more! After all she is the glue that has kept them together 60 happy goddam years!
So, he's in the hospital tonight and will let anyone who cares know whats going on soon as I know
