Read the Fine Print: Brett the Jet
http://readthefineprint.blogspot.com/2008/08/brett-jet.html
Read the Fine Print. Blog now. Ask questions later. So…what do you think about the Favre situation? 1) First of all, I hate how they make it sound like it was Brett’s decision to not play at Green Bay because of emotional scars. Green Bay moved on and did not show Brett any support in coming back, so it was just as much Green Bay’s decision as it was Brett’s. Media…Green Bay management…present the facts as they are, don't spin them. How tough is this kid? 6) Go Packers. Go Jets. Go Brett Favre! I'm a 32 ...

http://readthefineprint.blogspot.com/2008/07/running-family.html
Read the Fine Print. Blog now. Ask questions later. The Running Family is awesome! I’ve never run with a group before. A few years ago, a guy who was a marathon coach for Luke’s Locker decided to branch off and start his program. But instead of charging everyone $200 or more like Luke’s Locker, it’s FREE! I’m hoping to soak up some knowledge from them since I’m training for my first ultramarathon (any distance over 26.2 miles). With a quizzical expression, I ask “Mile 26? You’re crazier than sh*! I don&#...

Read the Fine Print. Blog now. Ask questions later. Have you ever pushed yourself beyond your perceived physical and/or mental limitations and found out that you are capable of accomplishing much more than you ever imagined? I didn't go up there to die, I went up there to live. If only I can remain injury free! I guess I'm so excited because it's another opportunity to push the envelope on what I think are my physical limitations, and I'm confident I can exceed them. Posted by Kirk Wimberley. Brett Favre...

We decided at the last minute to drive up to the Grasslands the day before the race for some good ol’ Texas camping. We found a spot right by the start/finish line, and there were horses EVERYWHERE! After showing me how to secure a horse to a pole with a slipknot, he was comfortable enough leaving his horses under our watch care! At 7am, the race director shouted “Go! How wrong was I!

Read the Fine Print. Blog now. Ask questions later. Dallas White Rock Marathon. Sunday, December 9, 2007. 5:25am - I wake up 5 minutes before the alarm goes off and pop up out of bed. After putting shorts and shoes on, I decide to shove several shirts in my bag and decide what to wear once I get to the AAC (American Airlines Center). I down a glass of water, grab my bag, get my oatmeal and banana and load up in my Jeep. Well except for one small fact - downtown Dallas is where the finish line was! The Da...
