I got an e-mail today from the Race Director of the Death Valley Marathon stating they are switching to an alternate route because of weather. Boy, just another thing to add to my already pathetic week. I bet it’s going to rain and be terrible weather too. On the bright side (bright side?), there won’t be much climbing involved on the course. It’s pretty much and out and back pancake flat course on dirt and gravel.

My workplace is a haven for junk food. We have a Starbucks on the first floor, and people are always bringing in chocolates, cakes, you name it on often a daily basis. If your office is like mine, they put them out in the kitchen area so everyone can grab a piece. I have to pass this display on the way to my office.

Dear Starbucks Marble loaf,
We’re over. You lied to me. Or maybe I lied to myself. Regardless, I think our relationship is over.
We first met at the corner, as I was looking for a light snack to quell my Ironman training hungers. I’d have you with a bottled Ice Coffee (Mocha). I must admit, you were really good when warmed up in the microwave.
But alas, you were fake. At least Ice Coffee (Mocha) has it’s nutritional value typed onto the bottle (180 calories). Not sure what I was thinking, but I thought you were around the same calorie content. Maybe I should have listened to what my mother taught me: “All that glitters is not gold”. And now I must tell everyone what you are really made of
Your ex,

We are sooo not together anymore
Ken
