Hey. What's happening, people?
RD for me. I'll do push-ups and ab work before heading to work.
I'm annoyed. My RunKeeper and Health apps are syncing with the MyFitnessPal website, but not the MyFitnessPal app. WTH? The syncing just plain stopped late Tuesday last week.
Hi.
I am here and accounted for.
Coffee me please.
SRD but up early anyway for no good reason, & on my 3rd cup already.
Dave
Hello all,
Easy 5 for me today. We had a break from the cold yesterday, but it's back. Sigh.
Blergh. I'm vertical, but that's all I can say. Soaking my head in coffee. The dog woke me up heaving at 11:30, I went back to sleep after 2:00. Almost identical schedule to the night before. Must. sleep. soon.
I'll run something something later.

Good morning, special flowers! I managed to run my run outdoors yesterday, which sort of felt like an outside bonus day since I was expecting to have to treadmill it. The roads started to ice up near the end of my run as the sun was setting, so I timed it well. 60 minutes, 7.45 miles, 8:11 pace on a hill route. I swear the Saucony Ride 7's feel like I am running with wooden boxes strapped to my feet.
Today calls for a 50 minute hard effort progression run, which I will be doing on the treadmill. I am looking forward to it...it is going to hurt.

Morning!
I ran some easy miles with strides last night. More easy miles tonight. I'm saving my energy for a LR with a few MP miles next Sunday. This afternoon, I'm going back to the hospital. My doctor wants to look at the bruise. It started hurting a bit in the last couple of days. Maybe he has an antibiotic for it, or something... I also want to tell him that I want off the experimental drug I've been on for a while. We think it's the cause of my dizziness and the stomach problems I often get when I run. Hopefully, things will be better after. On a more positive note, I'm expecting a shipment from Lululemon, today or tomorrow. Thank God for little pleasures...

Good luck getting answers and results, Lily!
I'll head to the Y later for some miles on the stationary bike and strength training. Then getting on the phone today to get the ball rolling again toward a knee scope. The sooner that happens, the sooner I can start rehabbing.
20,000 miles behind me, the world still to see.

Had to make the decision to make this an unscheduled rest day This head cold just isn't getting better quick enough, DH thinks my running and strength training are hurting my immune system, so I guess I'll take today as a rest day and stay home as well and just take it easy. Hopefully I'll start feeling close to 80% by this evening, I really don't want to take more than one day off, starting my new plan just last week and things were going so great..... now this stupid head cold.

Morning! I managed only 4 yesterday due to work. I have Pilates and 8 with 4 at tempo tonight; hoping the allergy shot I am having today won't affect that.

Well having to deal with your summer weather, you deserve some nice winter weather to run in.
This is proving to be a tough winter for marathon training. Last year's bitterly cold winter was tough, but all the snow this year is even worse.
Sweet Lily, I hope everything turns out okay for you!
Hope you can get synched again, Basya!
Happy rest day, Dave.
Sorry about the cold being back again, Cy. When does winter 'officially' end for you?
Hope you feel better, Little Blue! And get some sleep.
Good luck with the progression run, Baboon! Special flowers, huh? Don't call me Daisy. Actually my favorite flower is sunflower - well, it's technically a weed, I guess, but I still like it.
Dang, Step, I sure hope things do get rolling for you so you can get back to 100 percent. You sure have had a time of it! From now on, I wish only nice things to happen for you.
Hope your run goes well today, Damaris, with no allergy shot effects. "Only 4"...that's about my LONG run distance, lol.
In a word? No. lol
I rather enjoy running in the 40's & 50's and am looking forward to the time when I can.
Morning, dailies:
Basya - the snow even got your apps, in addition to shutting down the T. Stay safe and warm.
Rick - yes to coffee
DaveP - rest well
Cy - ugh
Little Blue - get some sleep!
Baboon - Saucony Rough Rides? California has the "Pineapple Express" rain, maybe you guys have the "Chicken Wing Express" this year.
Lily - hope the dizziness subsides. Yay for Lulu.
Step - good, at least you can still cross train
Free - measles of the respiratory system! Feel better.
D - have a good tempo
Scotty - Ok ok, here's my forecast; be jealous. Thank God, Buddha, and Cthulhu for treadmills.
Housework today, MLR later at the Y.
