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.
Hiya, Penguins!! Didja miss me? I had a lovely time at the beach -- there was one rainy day and one really cold and windy day, and the rest of it was beautiful. I actually woke up in time to see the sunrise a few times, and excepting that the wi-fi NEVER worked at the house we rented, the vacation was just about perfect. My folks went with us too, and it was nice to see my mom getting around really well after her hip replacement -- she picked up a post-op infection, which has taken MONTHS to fully heal.
Anyway, it's Take Back Your Time Day, whatever that means. So hey, it's your time, take it back!
I'll attempt to insert a pic, let me know if it works! I'm so pic-clueless on RA ...
Morning! I have Pilates and 7.
HopesMom, glad you are back! I kept forgetting to start the thread in your absence. I'm not worthy!

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.

HM - I'm glad you had a good vacation. Beautiful photo!
D - enjoy your Pilates and 7 this evening.
I had intended to do a short run with the Beer Runners this evening, but it's such a lovely day, I may run earlier.
Well, I've pretty much survived my first day back at work, but I have quite the headache!!
