Singer who runs a smidge
The "Penguin" daily threads were originally conceived to emphasize that all members of the community have a place on the boards. Encouragement, motivation, a little love nip (you will love one, give it a try!) or even a little kick in the pants when needed -- it can happen here. Basically, we celebrate just getting out there and moving our tails! What is "slow"? "Slow" is a perception but one of the common benchmarks is the 10:00/mi pace; but there's no firm line. In fact, there are many of us that have slipped past this, and just hope that no one notices and revokes their "igloo privileges." And some penguins don't run at all, we just hang out for the company! It can be confusing for the forum newbies, but we're not one of the teams in any of the fine games. It's a totally open group, so stop lurking, post an introduction of yourself dive in and join the fun! No application necessary! There might even be a lovely picture for Scotty (we love pics!)
When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run. The only thing that matters is how we have loved.
Not an official holiday, but I ran some samples for the folks at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and got some interesting results. The scientists were really excited and wanted to show off their conservation lab, so I brought my husband to work, and we're going to take off after lunch and go see the museum, then meet with the conservators at 4:00. Should be really cool!! They currently have an exhibition of terra cotta warriors from China, in addition to their regular exhibitions.
Morning! Dropped Hershey off at the vet at 7am and I have not heard a thing from the vet, so just calling them back to see if they have even seen him. Sigh.
I have 6 with strides and weights tonight.
HopesMom, enjoy the day!

As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

I'll be doing 5-6 this afternoon. Walk with Ben first.
