(click the logo for more info)…here’s a pic of Daves sneakers on the rack in the garage.. The ones in front are his.. The back ones are mine.. I hope he can see how dirty mine are.. They have several miles and several races on them since he passed away.. I know he would be proud to see them being used so much… his are still looking brand new…and it’s a shame :o( We both got new sneakers in March.. And as you can tell his new ones didn’t have many miles on them! He would wear them to the gym and only on dry days outside he’d run them on the road… back in March/April the streets were still muddy and dirty from the winter and he‘d use his old ones…… he wore his new ones that last day on the treadmill at the Y... on the morning of April 21st .. They are still in the same spot where he left them… and he actually hung his sweaty tee shirt up to dry too.. That is still hanging up untouched in our closet…and I look at it often and wonder how odd he could have been so healthy/ energized to worked out that morning and then a few hours later he ended up in the ER…?? I continue to put on my sneakers mostly every day… I head out with the dog, and Chases iPOD … Dave would always call me to see how many miles I went each day.. And sometimes he'd tell me new roads to go down for a longer run….. I miss that !… I miss not having him ask me how far I went or where I went.... What did Capple do? How many birds did she pull my arm off to chase or squirrels she barked at... Or if any more dogs jumped the fence to greet us….. ?
Im running in NYC for Dave on 8.31.08 anyone want to join in.. just let me know… mudpies@snet.net
