For those of you who don't know, let me give you a little background on what I mean by Yeti. Last year Chris, Gibby, and myself set out to run the Inaugural Expedition Everest Challenge at Walt Disney World. This was an amazing event. As we started our training in mid March last year we dubbed ourselves the Sweaty Yetis after several evening runs coming in drenched. That is where the name originated.
So last night was the first run for Chris after his foot injury, which had him sidelined for around 12 weeks. I would have to say that he is probably my favorite running partner, since we tend to feed off of each other as far as competitiveness. I was very surprised with how quickly we covered the 2 mile run last night. Way to go Yeti!
Next week I will be heading to Walt Disney World for a week, which will probably not include a single day of running. I am sure that when I return I will be more amazed at his progress. Can't wait.

Thanks, Brian. Not just for the nice things you said, but for hanging with me last night. There were a few moments when I wanted to quit, but I kept going. Its a lot easier to go out for a run when you don't feel like it if you have a good friend to run with. Thanks.
