30 minutes elliptical last night; this morning the fitness center is full so will wait til after work. Roy, how do you say spareribs in England? Well you better learn because we're all headed your way in August. Okay, here's a layup for you. I'll even give you a head start with a couple of letters: Centaur head? S _ _ _ C Spareribs

Morning All Went out for a 5 miler with Woodie's tail wagging away. Shorts and tee today cool breezy day but not to breezy. 5m 54:15 @ 10:51 AHR 153 72% (((((munch)))))) Oh and the 201 was working so life in the old thing yet. Morning SR, we posted the same time, thats great news, what part are you going to? Good Runs All Roy

Very warm here too (NC). 62-60F for a drippy m-LR. 13 hilly miles in 1:49:51 (8:27 pace, AHR153). Perfect run today ending with a 7:36 mile. But then Tory met me at the door so 2 cool down miiles at 9:30 pace. 15 miles before work an I have a dinner meeting tonight...oy! Have great runs!

Roy, nothing is firm yet. We have tix for a week, going in and out of London. Family still exploring and arguing about where we will go. There's a lot to do and we have time to consider. Would be great to see you too. For people new to crosswords, any clue that is followed by a ? means that there is a trick or riddle involved, something where they are trying to cross you up.

Good Morning! I enjoyed a lovely brisk-ish run with CNYrunner this morning (ave pace 9:21). Brisk for me, this was probably recovery pace for her. We were lucky enough to have a clear spot in between storms, starting out at 53 degrees, although temps have dropped to 44 now, still a pleasant respite from winter weather, which is due to come back tomorrow. Spareribs, I'm trying, but so far I'm stumped. Quote of the day, from DD this morning: “Mommy’s not an old lady. She just gets wrinkly sometimes.”

Good morning Boomers. Cross training day here - 4.5 miles on the eliiptical in 35 minutes with some leg and ab work thrown in. Took my DH to the airport this morning for his annual golfing trip to Florida with a bunch of his buddies. It would be nice to get out of winter for a while. The big storm missed us - only a couple of inches, but the southern part of the state is getting hammered. Mary, hope you're far enough north! To all the Boomers running in mild temps without layers and layers, hats, gloves and YaxTrax, enjoy! I'm living vicariously through all of you. Holly and CNY Runner, it's so neat that you two have met and are running together. That's what makes this forum cool. It's Ash Wednesday today. When I asked DS what he was giving up for Lent, he said watermellon. (?????) Good runs, all. Jeanne

Morning, all! You know it's a good morning when Woodie's tail is wagging! {{{{{{{{Munch}}}}}}}} Count me in for the eating and drinking. I can hold my own with that kind of activity. No run this morning. Had to drop the puppy off at day care before work. One day of nonstop playing gives us 2 to 3 days of tired puppy. Weights and core scheduled for lunch today. Good runs to all!

Ribs, even Google didn't help. I'll check with Marj later-she does the Times puzzle daily. Tapering for the half this Sunday. Didn't run yesterday because of heavy rain. This morning decided to go out in the drizzle for a short run. Drizzle turned into a heavy rain shortly after I started but,at least, got in almost 3 miles. Found out that my new jacket (that I got from finishing the Pub Series races) is weather resistant-only part of me that remained dry . can't wait for that 70+ weather-leaving on Saturday .
