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!)
Cupcakes!
Yum at the cupcakes!
I have Pilates and weights, I guess.

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.

Morning, all!! Same old crazy here -- lots of samples to run, analyze, report, letters to write, chorus stuff butting in, etc. etc. Tonight I have to make a tinfoil hat, since my quartet package is all about aliens. Should be fun!!
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.
And yes, those cupcakes look yummy!!! <---- This guy is sticking out his tongue to lick off some icing!
Z - Lemon cupcakes? They do look good. Have fun with your daughter this weekend. Are you still streaking?
HM - enjoy your music.
D - I hope the weights and Pilates go well today. Did the massage help? Are you still sore from the accident besides the knee?
Another gray and windy day, so I ran into town so I could have the wind at my back. I did 9.4 at MP, which was made easier by the wind's boost, except when I got it head on.
Ginny, my neck is somewhat sore but I think it's a mixture of the accident, the pain, and me sleeping in pain. I hope. He massaged that and the knee and taped my knee. It feels better do so at least the pain is a bit less.
Surgery was switched to this Tuesday, yay.
They are lemon cupcakes, some of them with lavender. We are finally on the road heading north.
Ginny, yes, the streak is still going. Today was day 170.
D, good news!
