Morning Peeps! 30 min of cardio at the gym last night. Quads getting back to normal. I'll probably go for a short run, thinking 3 miles this afternoon.

Macd - You joining us??

Slave - LOL you are right about some people come new years time!

Noob - Wow, you live in Aus? Did you at least add yourself to our map? And I agree with Spicegeek, regardless of where you live/race, we like to see who is racing when!

Spicegeek - Thanks for checking in!

Alex - Glad you shook off that cold. Nice run! Thanks... ankle is fine now.

Chuck43 - Good run! If you get Peg to move over, don't think you'll get her to root for the Dolphins! Our temp high yesterday was 87F, high for today only 68F, and low for tonight 38F!!
Sounds like running tights weather here too! Mine are NB, commando! LOL

KathyWing - Good 3.75 miles! I like flat running courses! Cold front here too!

Runjr - Good XT day! On my Garmin I like to track the current lap pace along with the previous lap pace.

Wbertha - That rain, wind and temps in the 40's doesn't sound too good huh? But what if its like that come race morning?!!

Sheila - Thanks. You tried a spin class?

Laurel - Take care of that knee! Thanks on the pics. I was having fun up until around mile 10!

Peg - Keep plugging away at those interviews! Some of them are bound to wise up! Did you tell them you're running Houston? Really hope you find something and your shins heal up soon!

Julezc - Nice shedule! Go commando myself no having to remember what to wear! So I see what you'll be wearing on Thanksgiving Day! LOL ...so the chiropractor got your back in line again? Let us know how that run today goes!!

Cara - So how do like being a runner now! LOL Good pace for a 5.3 mile run! Oh uh, sounds like you need to take a few days off, rest and ice that knee! I'd say skip the long run too!!

Joe

Hey everyone! I’ve decided to take several days off to heal this hip. It’s just not healing otherwise. I’ll let it rest and then run again and it starts hurting again. I think it wants more than a day’s rest between runs, so I’m going to give it until this weekend at least. I’ve decided to walk the mileage that I’d run instead (except for my long run - walking 6 miles would take forever! ). I figure that I have to get it healed before I start serious training for my big race in May. (I know – May is so far off, but still…)

It’s funny, though. I really miss running! (And I’m only on day 3 of resting it!) I never would have thought a year ago that I’d bemoan a week off from running. Funny how quickly it becomes important to us all.

Simon – I like the way kilometers sound too.

Cara – How’s it going?! 3.5 in 34:20 – you are so fast, girl!

Welcome Noob! Glad you could join us! I’m new to this group too. They’re a great group!!

MissWendy – holy crap! I might have had a heart attack if a shot went off while running!

Laurel – how old is your daughter? Mine is almost 14, but my son (who is 10) also occasionally runs with me. We picked up the new car last night! It’s oh so pretty! And has all sorts of cool gadgets (butt warmers, moon roof, adjustable everything, you name it.)

Chuck – how’s it going today? Things any clearer? What is the issue that’s causing your son and your gf to argue?

Kristopher – We’ll have to see about that! Packers are pretty good this year! (But I will concede that the Cowboys are too…  )

Wbertha – don’t worry about not having a half picked out. Mine isn’t until 5/31, so it’s a long ways off!

Peg –I want to see the remodeling pics too! I love remodeling – if I could do it full time, I would. It’s so much fun! (And hard work!)

Kathywing – 8 miles is a great long run! Don’t worry about the speed – I’m a slow runner too! I actually don’t mind being slow, I know that bugs some people, though.

Sheila – that’s so cool that you helped a coworker do c25k! I think I might start doing that with my son too.

Runjr - you're in Wisconsin? I'm in Iowa - we're neighbors!! Are you a Packers fan too???

Howdy to Jules, Slave, and Kevin! (And whoever else I missed! I promise I didn't mean to overlook anyone.)

Joe – you used to be ‘joewascool’, huh? That’s funny.

Well, happy Tuesday everyone!

I went and curled back up in the bed this morning. I have 10 to run today, my schedule says 7 but I'm going for 10. Hope everyone has a good running day. They just had on one of the morning shows a girls cross country teams from Kentucky on, while running their race a Deer ran over one of the girls and knocked her out of the race. She was in 5th I think. Could you imagine running along peacefully a get took out by a Deer. Thats a running Injury you don't hear about all the time.

Hello all,
I ran for 30 min. (2.6mi) on Friday afternoon and Saturday (2.5 mi) morning. Then I did my 75 min (6.6) run on Sunday afternoon. Knees feel a little better, got some new shoes!

Congrats on running with no pain Peg!

Wbertha, nice run on your treadmill.

Great run and congrats on your win misswendy!

Hang in there spicegeek, runs are coming.

Joe, sorry to hear about your cough being that bad. I haven't had to deal with any illnesses in the short time I've been running, I hope you can still run through it.

I'm sure I missed alot of people, good luck on your runs tomorrow, and get well everyone else!

Kevin
