Beginners and Beyond

Tuesday Penguins ... I think ... (Read 12 times)


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.

      Morning, Penguins!!  I think it's Tuesday, and I know I'm back at work.  Anything else is questionable!!  I had a lovely vacation, capped off by a full-on veg day yesterday, the only one where we didn't go somewhere or run errands or something.  It was lovely!!  Now I'm back trying to get my instruments to run again so I can actually produce some data.  Life is never dull!!

       

      So I read a little, heard there was morning sickness and a car crash and some illicit chicken ...

       

      Is everyone back in the swing of things?  Ready to tackle the new year?  Woo-hoo!!

      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.

        Another rainy day here after all day mist yesterday.  All I did was stationary bike for an hour yesterday.  Today, after another wet walk with Ben, I'll hop on the TM for 4 slow miles.  My shoulder is still hurting, but it doesn't seem to mind running.

          Morning!  Today is my RD, so Pilates class only.

           

          HopesMom, Happy New Year!  Glad to hear you are back at work...not.

           

          Ginny, hope your run goes well.

          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.
