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.
I have a lot to do today, though not really any more than any other day. But feeling like a warrior, that's all good!! So what have I done warrior-like today? Well, I bought a mango yesterday, and this morning I cut it up and put it in my breakfast smoothie! No wasted mango! And I even let DH put some in his cereal!!
So let's hear about your warrior runs, breakfasts, meetings, whatever!
I love mangos.
At the moment I'm waiting for delivery of my new TM. After walking Ben, I'll test it out. I'm not sure if I'll go ahead and do the 9 miles I'm supposed to do today on the 'mill or do it outside or a combination of the two.

Congrats on the TM.
I discovered yesterday that I really need to work on my form. I did 4 miles yesterday and I really felt it afterwards. I had to stop and start several times since the auto upload took a few tries to get set up.
Spent the morning in Court. Might do a test run today, sigh.

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.

Woohoo! TMs for everybody!

Was that on the TM? Did you calibrate it before you start? I remember we didn't thinking it would be calibrated from the start and it took us a while to realize we needed to auto calibrate it, doh.
I calibrated it yesterday. Today, I ran 3 miles according to the TM. It uploaded 1.58 at 5: xx minute miles. I don't run 5: xx miles.
Uploaded from where? I don't recall the F80. Mine does not have upload anything. I just calibrate it and use it and compare to the TomTom (which is mostly accurate with it).
Now they have Bluetooth. You have to open the Sole app, click that you want to upload before you start to run, and have an account with UA, Fit bit, FB, or Twitter. It uploads when you're finished. I think I'll just run and write it down.
Interesting. I need to check it then!
4 mile hill repeats on my TM today. 5x600
