Good morning all.

Ellen - great job putting in 3 this morning with no interuptions.

Dan - Hope all heals up well.

As Mom puts it, went to the fishbowl this morning. It has been a while since I have been in the water. It felt pretty good considering. Here is what it looked like.

800 Meters in 19:11

1 - 2:11 Freestyle
2 - 2:16 Freestyle
3 - 2:18 Freestyle
4 - 3:07 Breast stroke
5 - 2:15 Freestyle
6 - 2:24 Freestyle
7 - 2:14 Freestyle

Happy Running / Swimming / Cycling / Healing or whatever else we are doing today. See you all tomorrow! Is it at kickrunners.com?

Looks like a few people are at kickrunners today. I see ellen and megs over there on a thread in the temp. forum. No running for me today and I am not sure if I will do any cross training. Have a great morning. The kickrunners thread is in the postrace forum then the home-away from home.

Morning all;

I got in 6.45 last night on the treadmill... 6 at 7:30mpm. It seemed torturously slow but perhaps I was listening to the wrong music while watching Monday night football...

Shooting for a few easy miles today, probably on the indoor track. Hopefully they'll be no other runners else I'm bound to run too fast...

Looks like I need to check out kickrunners... hopefully no-one stole my user name...

Asics and RFR--I ran on the indoor track once. Never again!!! There was one other jogger and I kept lapping the poor guy. Plus, it was 90' and 90% humidity.

Started the morning with a yoga class. New instructor and a bit more intense. I'll get the hang of it eventually.

Then to the fishbowl. Drills and speed work. 34:24. 1700 or so???

Then a quick shower and home long enough to pick up the bird and off to the vet. Norman is a 19yo cockatiel. He's gettign up in years and his beak is falling apart. I went to school with one of the vet techs and did an internship at the practice, so it was a nice visit. Once I got back to the van, I realized I still had swim cap and goggle marks...

But lapping people (as many times as possible) is the name of the game Sometimes I won't finish until I lap the runner ahead just one last time... it's good motivation to finish strong.

Just posted on kickrunners... still RunAsics...

Hey ya'll,

Ellen & R4F- Nice runs
Dan- I'm sorry your leg is feeling worse, hope it gets better
David- Nice swimming I love swimming
Alex & Tonya - Have good runs later
Kfuller- Enjoy the rest or XT later
Asics- Don't run anyone into the ground too much, now!
4BM- I walk around sometimes for hours after a swim workout with goggle and cap marks, theyre oh so lovely

I don't have that lapping problem with running, I'm the one that always gets lapped . But in swimming, sometimes I feel bad when someone gets in my lane and I'm doing like a 500 or something and they stop every 50-100 and I just keep going and lapping them while they're swimming too. I don't like that

Today I'll get 2 miles in at some point...I have 2 more exams, but not until Thursday I'll be studying accounting today and going to the grocery store at some point because I have no food and then I'll run sometime also

Have a good day!

Hey everyone,

Just getting my final -- for now -- post in here at the old venerable forum. I haven't gone to kickrunners yet, but it looks quiet at the office this afternoon, so I should have time to explore. I'm guessing "CMJHawk86" is not taken as a user ID and that the Hawk will continue to fly.

On a related topic -- shameless plug here -- my race report is up.

Still in recovery mode from the marathon. However, I am starting to feel almost normal today. Most of the soreness in my lower body is gone; only the right calf, the trouble spot during my race, still hurts but even that is dissipating. As for the rest of the week, it's a bit day-to-day based on how I'm recovering, but tonight I may actually try a very light 20 minutes on the home elliptical -- nothing hard, just a little motion to get things moving again. Then tomorrow I'm thinking of maybe 2-3 miles walking at lunchtime, followed by some more elliptical work on Thursday. Finally on Friday, if all goes well, it will be time for a recovery run of 2-3 miles.

As for Saturday, we'll have to see about this, but there is actually a 10k in our neighborhood. If my body's willing by that point I just might do it as a recovery run. Megs, are you doing it? Since I'm not racing it, I'd be willing to run it with you. Send me an email, let's discuss it if you're interested.

Dave - nice job on the swim. Nice change of pace isn't it?

RFF - nice run

Dan - hope the injury continues to heal and we see you out there again this week.

RunAsics - it's been a while since I've done that many miles on an indoor track. But hey, you gotta do what you gotta do. Keep lapping away.

Tonya - what kind of speed workout are you doing tonight?

kfuller - good luck w/ the XT later

Time for lunch...weird, this whole concept of actually eating at lunchtime rather than doing a workout. Oh well, it's only temporary.
