Lou, I really like that tattoo. Who designed it for you? It's fantastic!
Thanks!
I commissioned one of my running friends who is also an artist to design it. I met her here and IRL a couple of times. Her handle is aija -- see http://shop.cafepress.com/dornbusch for more of her work.

Hope your dd is feeling better asap Vix!
Glad to hear your running is feeling better Paul! YOU are going to ROCK Richmond!
Loving the weather as well Kimmie!
. I had a 12 miler planned but RP wasn't feeling it today so we rescheduled for Friday. So instead of a hilly 12 miler I got 6 moderate paced miles sandwiched between 4 easy miles. For some odd reason my last 4 runs or so have been 10 milers. I was about to type because i'm too lazy to do doubles but that just doesn't sound right lol. Tomorrow should be an easy 6 or so. If I do 10 kill me!

Good luck getting to 1500 kimmy!
I dont think I'll make it to 400....but Im starting to set myself up to be in good shape to start 2010.
Ran 3 on the tm at the gym today. My heal hurts a bit--Nothing too concerning now. And it feels better once I get running .couldnt be PF again, right?? Ive only run 6 miles in the past 30 days.
8.2 miles, 1:05:25, 8:00/mi, AHR 162 (83% MHR)
I think my internal thermostat is shifting -- I don't need to wear as much as I used to for 35°. I was too warm with two shirts, gloves and hat.
Pam - I got the tattoo last Thanksgiving. That is a hop plant in the upper right, in case anyone didn't recognize them
On the road again...
I write. I read. I run. One time, I ran a lot on my 50th birthday.

Hey! I ran 10 today and they felt so long! Not encouraging with my half around the corner, but I think it was just how late I set out and how windy it was.
35 is starting to sound mighty dreamy. I'm starting to check the 10-day forecast.
Thanks for the well wishes. DD felt great all day yesterday and is back in school today. It seems lots of people here are sick, so keeping her away from others when she showed the slightest symptom seemed the kind thing to do. It only works if everyone else is doing the same, though!
Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. (Heb. 12:1b) Mile by Mile
Did two on the tm at lunch and some misc leg exercise stuff. Will figure out a routine there. Feels good just getting in a couple few miles a day for now. I'll start in the 20ish mpw range, and then I'll figure how to get more in.
Heal feels fine today, so thats good.
Getting the H1N1 mist tomorrow. Good times.
Hawt and sexy
Nice tat and stuff.
My hottie is racing today. *swoon*
My marathon is Sunday in Harrisburg. Weather is a low of 44 with a high of 64 and sunny. Purrfect day to be a cat.
I will run in a bit, when I feel I can take a break from stalking following the speedskaters.
Hugs and stuff all around.
I'm touching your pants.
Decided to take the day off because of my ankle feeling twingey... most l likely nothing.
Man, Lou, that is one fast run. What are you training for next?
Good to hear from you Murphy! Your little girl is too cute!
Ok, I'm going to do the call out to those people we haven't heard from:
Jeremy, Cash, Erika, Bugs, Dave
Did I miss anyone? Just want people to know they're missed and a Hi is always welcomed, whether you're running or not.
I really love the spreadsheet in the 1500 forum that tells you how much you have to run to get to 1500 by the end of the year. Hopefully, the day off today was smart and not going to put me behind too much.

Anyone else want to run Veteran's Day 10K at Hanes Point in a little over a week and say hi? Sunday morning Nov 15. Lou? Kim?
Yeah, Kim, this is the same one I was already haranguing you about
It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.
Happy Camper
Good racing Sunday Willa!
I'll be headed off to the Ozark Trial this afternoon. It's going to be much better weather than I'd hoped for. Maybe a little too warm. Sunshine, breezy, mid 70's tomorrow and overnight low of upper 40's - 50. Clear skies overnight. I have until 2:00pm Sunday to finish. Maybe not so muddy after all. The week has been dry. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
Determination: The feeling you get right before you try something incredibly stupid.
Perry - as much as we'd like to see you (and Kimmie), I think we're going to have to pass. Just the thought of waking up at 4am on a Sunday makes me tired, plus PDR is struggling with some knee issues since Newport, and wants to be healthy for our yearly turkey trot 5K in Frederick.
3.1 miles, 28:15, 9:01/mi, AHR 134 (68% MHR)
If my ankle is still bothering me, then I may pass on the 10K. But I will let you know Perry.
Sorry to hear that PDR is having knee issues, Lou.
Pace- What's the Ozark Trail or is it trial?
Oh and good luck Amanda! What are you racing?
Pam, are you training for anything?
