Beginners and Beyond

Creative Penguin Thursdailies!! (Read 7 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, y'all!!  It's National Live Creative Day, so woo-hoo!!  Power in the lab just blipped, wonder if that's related to the guys supposedly fixing my AC?  Chorus rehearsal tonight!!

       

      Docket -- woo-hoo for sleep!!

       

      Ginny -- we still have power, we're just too stubborn to close the windows and turn on the AC. 

       

      Scotty -- glad the vertigo is verti-gone!!

        Morning!  I went to OTF only to realize I didn't read their email last night canceling all morning classes, sigh.  So, I called PT and went there.  I have Pilates and 5 miles tonight.

          HopesMom, ugh!  I would be turning the AC in full blast.  It was 96F here at 8am and we got to 105F when we had no power.  Heck no.

            Well, yeah, but it's not that hot here.  Highs in the low 80's.

              HM - I hope your AC at work was fixed. Time to turn it on at home too.

               

              D - enjoy your unexpected days off. At least your Pilates class is still on. Plus you get the TM all to yourself, so you can do it any time you want.

               

              There was some sort of roadwork going on on the road I usually run, so I decided to drive to town and do a nice flat run in town. It's a bit warmer than it was last week, and more humid, so it wasn't as easy as I'd hoped but I managed 6.7 miles.
