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.
It's National Take a Hike Day, which should be right up Ginny's alley!! I missed my walk yesterday due to actually having to work between meetings, doh! So today my walk is definitely on. I have quartet coaching tomorrow morning. We sang for the chorus last night, and one of the chorus members videoed it for us -- we didn't sound half bad!
Morning! I am in court but have a migraine, yuck. I have 7 or 12 depending on my headache feels later.
I would like for my migraine to take a hike!
HopesMom, sorry you missed the walk.

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.

Court and the migraine should both take a hike!! My MIL has terrible migraines, every day. She says that the days where the pain recedes enough for her to get out of bed are the "good" days. She usually has a few of those per week.
D - I don't know how you can function in Court with migraines. You are a tough lady!
HM - enjoy your coaching tomorrow. I hope you manage a walk today.
I'd like to take a hike today, but since the weekend is going to be bad, I think I'll do my long run this afternoon. We have rain tomorrow and cold and windy on Sunday. I'm not yet in MRT, so I could skip the long run, but I'd rather keep my mileage up if possible.
Hmm, wonder what my weather is this weekend? My walk today was lovely!
