40s on the run - running away from Active.com (Read 1685 times)

Hello? Ok, so now this is the THIRD running forum I've joined in the past 6 weeks or so... and so where will I be going next week? Talk about feeling like a refugee... OK, so I'm 45 and I run, so hopefully I qualify? E.

yep, cool running refugee here too. Almost 40 (does that count?) I like this site better anyhow....

Three miles at class last nite, I took it pretty easy as I want to use this period to get totally healed up. We had a nice night, mid 20's temp, nearly full moon and snow on the ground so really pretty bright out. For those of you new to the group dw and I are taking a class taught by Jonathon Beverly the editor of Running Times Magazine. Jonathon's rules for the holidays; 1) Indulge in food you like but control portions and choose quality over quanity. 2)stay active and get outside, when everyone is sitting around after dinner go for a walk etc, they won't even know your gone. good runs 40's folks edited to add quicky weights session this morn.

Morning, Sunshines! When my alarm went off at 4:45 is was absolutely pouring outside, so I thought I'd stay snuggled down until it tapered off a bit. Well, the snuggling lasted another hour and a half before I was bolted awake by a cat jumping on me. So tempo run this morning. Craig - Great photo from a great movie! Mtnchk - Mairead loving the snow. Who would've guessed! I agree with you in trying her out on some other underpass. Animals have such a good sense of something being wrong. If she balks at all underpasses, then it could very well have to do with something that happened to her before she had the great fortunate to end up in your home. It may take lots of treats and enticing to get her over the fear, and you've already done such a remarkable job with her, I know you'll be patient with her. Shell - "IRun4Waffles" - too funny. OrangeMat - Welcome! DogRunner - If you're a pet lover (seems so per your avatar), it doesn't matter what age you are! We shared all sorts of pet photos on the CR site. (Wilson, here, says hello, and he may have had too much eggnog.) Jimmy - Welcome! Is that you making that shadow figure?? R2/Jim - It sounds like your doing the right thing and taking it easy so your beat up bod can recoup. Hope I didn't miss anybody. Us girls had a great time at the tepanyaki bar last night. The only downside to the place is its ventilation over the tapanyaki tables is not so good. Therefore, once you leave there, you smell strongly of the cooking food. I hung my coat to air out all night, but still has a slight scent to it. Have great Thursday!

Another CR refugee checking in. Lurked more than posted but did some of both. I have checked out KR and the new CR too, but this format and atmosphere seems more comfortable. I am still nursing a foot injury, doing lots of cycling ( Spinning bike), swimming and elliptical. Lots of snow now too here in NH, so more snowshoeing and skiing coming up.

YAY!!!! I am so glad you all moved over here. I was so completely frustrated with the new site at Active. I've been a 40s group lurker for quite some time and I'm often motivated by the 40s group. So happy they imported my logs and everything! Kathy

Hi guys, finally made it over here for a few minutes! Good to see everybody. Looks like this is the way we are going, so I'm riding your wave. Like Shell, I figured I'd take the chance to update my username. She got creative, I just aged

We're kinda just drifting around like farts in a blizzard,trying to find a home. Have a good one folks! Joe

JOE!!! roflmao!!!!
