Thanks for getting our new week started Leslie....err.... Candy. Leslie, that was some great sounding run you had the other day, despite the rain. Sorry your trip home had to have that tragedy thrown in there. Scary stuff. Sad

Jim, sorry I didn't know what your hip ailment was. You're right, ice probably won't help there. I hope you find a solution that lets you keep enjoying your runs. Joe, sounds like those leathercheeks could use a massage! Nice run! I was able to get out for a run yesterday afternoon, in sunshine and 50* temps, a big difference from the morning conditions when I had to abort. Sqeaked in 7 miles instead of the scheduled 16. Woke up this AM to beautifully calm, crisp conditions and got my 16+ miler in today instead. I was on Long Beach Island in NJ and ran to the lighthouse and back. Can't believe it's almost 2008 already. Time's fun when you're having flies... -Bob aka Chesty Silver****er. Um, I think I'll stick to Bob.

Good morning gang! Well, it's morning here on the east coast anyway. Happy New Years Eve day! Princess Pammie, we use rounding here to figure out our ages, so 39+ rounds up to 40, so you're in! Welcome! Wasting time at work here today, not much happening. I got up early to hit the gym before work, and I guess whoever was supposed to open up this AM either forgot or overslept cuz everything was still locked up tight. I'll try heading over again at lunchtime, luckily it's just right up the road. A tendon injury in my left ankle that kept me out of commission for 8 weeks earlier this year seems to have resurfaced over the weekend, so I was gonna jump on the elliptical. Hopefully a few days rest will get things back in working order. Not what I want to have happen with less that 2 weeks to go before Disney! Angry

Cindy, all that snow slogging is gonna make you super strong! Imaging how you'll feel like you're flying once you hit the roads again! And if the snow was shin deep for you, imaging how it felt for your dog! It was probably belly deep! Joe, how's the arse today? Have fun and be safe out there tonight gang! A happy, healthy 2008 to all! Smile

anybody know how/if to do gif's?? ** Still trying.....stuff Confused

<>>{{{{{{{{{ HAPPY NEW YEAR GANG!!! }}}}}}}}}}}}b> Bob, hopefully that will be the case....I seem to be gettin' out less, due to wimpiness about the weather, lack o' babysitter, yada, yada, yada ~ SO! I'm hoping that the snow slogging will sorta keep me a little on track....it's kinda like running in the sand, only colder! Wink

& if the snow's deep enough for my doggie to be belly draggin', I'd betterbe wearing snow shoes! lol! she's pretty leggy bein' about 30" @ the shoulder! (I need to get more pics of her!) I'm waiting till later to get out....cold & windy this am here.....

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE DAY!!!!!! Pammie aka Princess Leatherock - None of us on our 40s in our minds, so everybody's welcome! Cindy - What's a "gif"?? You talkin' about posting pictures? I know how to do it if they're downloaded in photobucket. You want to click the last square icon above and put your link info in between the

<sigh> had no warm clothes to run in this, so couldn't go out. Aah, darn! Okay, the only thing I was really lacking were my gloves, but since there was frost and slick roads, hey - I didn't want to get finger frostbite. Roll eyes

No big plans for tonight, it would be too hard getting a taxi when I would want to go home. Knowing hub, he'll be asleep by 10:00. Just me and the cats ringing in the new year at midnight. Okay, the cats will be asleep, too, so it'll just be me. Blush

Have a great New Year and stay safe!! Cindy Dazzlethighs Yes

Joe, I see you are familiar with LBI! Beach Haven is at the opposite end of the island from Old Barney, so from there it would've been about a 16 mile point to point run. They do have a race there in the fall that goes from one end of the island to the other... 18 miles. I started out in Surf City, which is about 7 miles from the lighthouse and added on a section out near the lighthouse called High Bar to give me the 16 round trip miles. This time of the year, the island is almost deserted, plus the fact that I was on the road before the sun came up, so it was really quiet out and you could hear the ocean waves pounding for most of the run. Glad to hear the butt is doing ok!
