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!)
With HopesMom out of town, our dailies are getting later and later. Oh well. Anybody running today?
It's gray and drizzly here, kinda raw. We walked Ben, but if I run I'll do it on the TM. Jim just reminded me I have an appointment for a mammogram this afternoon, so I may end up with a RD instead.
12 trail miles for me this morning. Legs are dead.
I wasn't running anyway. Maybe I will, though.
Nah.
Well..
I ended up with 6 on the TM. It helped my mood a lot, if nothing else.
