Barking Mad To Run
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." 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!)

Happy Eve of New Year's Eve!
Half day working today, then off for the next 5 days. Plan on 3 - 4 miles around noon-time or 1 pm or so, after I get off work. Cold front moving in for us. Will be in the 50s when I run - nice - but then around 3 pm. or so, the rain moves in, the cold moves in and the temp will start drop-drop-dropping! Cold rain tonite, high on New Year's Eve of only in the low 40s, and on New Year's Day, our weather guy said it probably won't even make it out of the 30s, and the rain will continue through the day. That will be a fun morning to do my New Year's Day 5K! Luckily, the park where the 5K is being done is only about a mile from my house, so I won't have to drive on icy, wet roads to get there.

Congrats on the Streak SF. 3 more days.
Half a nice day Scotty.

Morning All!
The cold front is coming through here now. Did 4 on the TM this morning, group workout tonight.
Will probably be indoors for a few days.
Hey scotty, SF, damaris, and jerry with the new public log we can stalk. And pad who snuck in

Picture, please.
It is cold here, too. It must be 50 with a wind chill of 49. Actually, it is going to be in the 30's for the next few days and if the conditions are right we may even get some snow. It's very rare, but is has happened.
8 mile tempo run is done in 1:03. That was nice running in short sleeves and shorts. People around here think I'm some kind of lunatic.
Ouch!
Team TJ
LOL, I didn't run today but I did cause Mitch to sit in a ditch and freeze while he talked to me on the phone . Love ya brother!
Running for TJ because he can't.
19^ and we got 4 more miles done. Not much wind, so it was pretty comfortable. I must have bad circulation as my left toes get cold and the right ones not as much.
Let's see if I remember how to upload my miles.
Enjoy New NYE Eve.
