    AFM- I did six miles in soggy soupy humid BS. It took forever, but its fun at work when people say, "I saw you running this am, dont you know its too early for that shit, BTW- how much weight have you lost?"

     

    make today great.

     

    Like! Big grin

      Morning!  Planning on going to the social run later, which would be my 7th day in a row of running.  But Monday was only 1 mile, so that hardly counts.  RD tomorrow!

       

      I've only made one social run since the knee started acting up, so I'm looking forward to it as a sign of recovery.

        Oh I did run. Ha. 10.3.

         

        Siar won't interfere. I have loads of routes I can do. He lives 2 tenths from my house so I don't have to alter too much.

        Barking Mad To Run

          Happy Thursday!  Today, June 27, is National Sunglasses Day!

           

           

          Which is appropriate for Texas, our heat index is going up to 105 degrees today!  One reason I got up and ran this morning.   Haven't run since Sunday, dealing with all this stomach crap.  Felt quite good this morning, however, and managed to get in 3.2 miles.  Felt like I could have gone farther, but did not want to push it after 3 days of resting and eating broth, crackers, applesauce, jello, etc., while my stomach got back to normal.   I started at 6:15 a.m. and the temperature was already in the 70s, with humidity a whopping 82% and the dewpoint already over 70.  Miami weather!  Please keep it down there, Damaris!  Joking  I sat on the bench outside the gym cooling off, and I had a nice little 'sweat--pond' building under the bench by the time I went in to take my shower.   The run also made me feel a bit better about that nodule found on my left lung...apparently it is not affecting my wind, breathing, etc.

           

          It is going to be a nice quiet day at work today.  Just about everyone - including all the supervisors and big bosses - is at a retreat today, all day, downtown.  I was one of the few lucky ones that was not obligated to go.

            Just kidding. She has to take a 30-minute lunch (instead of an hour) to make up time. 4th planned rundate and this is her 3rd cancel. And if you count the first day when she forgot her gym bag... hum. Oh well. I'm still going, but now I'll just drive to my gym and run there so I can get a real shower afterward (as opposed to a "sponge bath" with face wipes).

              Just kidding. Hope this nutball stops.

                  hey guys, just thought i'd stop in and say hello!

                   

                  I'm having a competition with a friend to see who can get to 100 consecutive pushups first, and so far she's winning! Seriously. But we're both following a 7 week program (ha) and right now I'm in week 5. But I'm going to have to do week 5 again next week because I'm not able to fully complete the sets.

                   

                  Since cutting my running back to about 20 miles a week for the past few weeks the tendonitis in my knee has improved a lot. I have the same problem as Zelanie does apparently.

                   

                   

                  My sympathy and empathy to all of you soggy hot runners today. I'm going to knock a few miles out during lunch today.

                    No kidding. I don't push her, either - I understand she's busy (she's a single mom of 2 young kids and her ONLY free time is her lunch break) so I always wait for her to approach me with interest. Blah.

                      oh and in a daily from a month ago, which i just saw for some weird reason, I saw that DaveP MI took my RR pic, posted it there and referred to me as "the ho of anti-fashion".

                       

                      Dave, just because i dress like the homophobic middle aged PE teacher you had in middle school doesn't mean I don't have feelings.

                        Haha.  You never answered my question in your RR.  Are those running shoes?

                            Now I know why you looked familiar. Yes I am wearing my jock, stop asking.

                             

                            There were a number of comments about your attire, which should be taken as complimentary. You roll out of bed & throw on a cotton t-shirt & gym shorts you find wadded up in the corner of your bedroom, lace up your black running shoes which as far as I know are Chuck Taylor hi-tops, and run a friggin' 1:43 HM. If you wanted to consider MY feelings, you would run a little slower.

                             

                            Sorry I have been pretty quiet lately, I have been resting all week due to my calf/knee injury. (I am not as diligent as some others in posting in the dailies when I am not running, although obviously I am still reading.) If I am to believe the sports massage lady, the problem is my soleus muscle, rather than anything with my knee. Which I guess would be a good thing, hopefully some rest will do the trick. I may try to take it for a test drive this weekend & see how it feels.

                              I'll probably hit the track.

                                Good luck with the run, Dave.  Hope the calf behaves.
