Beginners and Beyond

Thumping Thursday Penguins (Read 5 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.

      Ok, so I had the radio turned up as I drove to work, and there might have been car vibrations.    Sometimes you just need to rock out!!  We should be getting a little break in the weather the rest of this week, with highs in the mid-80's instead of the mid-90's, and hopefully the heat index will stay below 100.  Chorus rehearsal tonight!!  I allude to the weather, because chorus last week was pretty miserable.  I had sweat just rolling off me the whole time.

          HM - no AC in your rehearsal space?  Have fun tonight.

           

          D - good luck with your P and 5 this evening. How does the knee feel post race?

           

          It's supposed to be in the 70's all week - very unusual for August.  I'll do 6 or 7 miles later.

            Knee feels good.  Not at 100% but nothing major.  Very happy.  Have a fun 6-7.

              I ended up doing a 6 mile trail run on the cross country ski loop while Jim and Ben walked it. Beautiful day to be out in the woods.
