 Here is a little of what I have been doing lately. This was printed in a local running paper.

 This is Belgium. Where everything is different. Such as a nude bycicle ride
 through the city streets, right turn on to city streets without so much as a
 pause to check oncoming traffic and driving motor vehicles on the bike path.


 My wife, Elaine Cromwell, and I are visiting our daughter and grand daughter in
 Brussels, Belgium. July 2nd, we entered a cross country 5k fun run. This was a
 little different from any other race I ever participated in.

 We had to take 2 trams to the start of the race. While waiting for the trams and
 watching the clock tick it was begining to look like we were going to be late.
 Finally on the second tram, my daughter started getting ready by putting on her
 running shoes, you know the kind that look like apes feet! Well that got a lot
 of stares from all the passengers within her view. Finally it got to be too much
 for one woman and in French she asked what were they? Lucky for her my wife
 speaks French and explained it to her. Its a good thing because I think she
 would be telling her friends she saw a yeti on the tram.

 We got to the start line on time, and after a short memorial we were ready to
 run. We ran up a narrow muddy path into the woods. We had to side step a few
 puddles, rocks and other debrie finally coming out on to a decent path. Oops
 wrong turn! The guy chasing me on his bike got me back on the right trail.
 Rounding the ponds with ducks and geese made for a pretty route and much
 appreciated shade.


 It was rough on these 80 year old legs, but they held together long enough to
 get me accross the finish line in 38:54. Not bad with that rough terrain and in
 a foreign country.
