Fleet Feet Race Team Announcement!!!

Some very exciting news! The Adams and Fleet Feet have asked me to join the Fleet Feet Race Team. Endurance Sports has been a faithful sponsor and superb partner but is going through some transitions and the time seemed right and I have prayerfully and thankfully accepted.

My training partner, big dawg @Ashly Dewberry will be on FF Race Team along with a few other folks I have yet to meet but hear good things. I have known FF owner, Matt Adams since highschool. He was captain of the Brentwood Lax team when I was just a freshman middy, it was here that I got my first real taste of pain in athletics and liked it.  It is great to reconnect and run for a store that just does it right. The Team will be small with a focus on racing, fitness promotion and cultivating the FIRE in all who seek road, dirt, mud, rock and trail. It is ON.

God speed,
JMS

Friday Night Run

"I'll have 3 double expressos please." The barista opened her mouth, I jumped in and pointed to @Ashly Dewberry and Matt (the Dean) Vest and said, "In separate cups!" I mean what am I... crazy!?

We merry three headed out from the Franklin 5 Points Starbucks Friday at 430 pm. It was about 100 degrees. We planned to run the back roads to Grassland Middle which would be a 25m or so out and back. The coffee charged us up as we chattered at each other and ran fast dodging traffic. Labor day weekend brings 'em out of the woodwork. I had dropped water at the Old Natchez Trace/ Moran Rd turn. We guzzled water in the heat. I looked at Ashly- he looked good- fit- the fire seemed to be back and the injury now in the rearview mirror. Ash went back a different route for a solid 20m.

Matt and I ran out of sun shine on the way home. I had only a small blinking blue light on me to get us home. We ended the run at the Franklin Pub with a cold pint.
