Penguin Power!
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!)
Upcoming Races: Run as One 4M (4/24) * Japan Run 4M (5/8) * Brooklyn Half (5/21)

Singer who runs a smidge
Morning, Penguins!! Well, I'm taking advantage of the fact that my tech is on vacation to clean the microwave. Since he's pretty much the only one using it, it's not completely grody, but it definitely needed doing. So now I smell like disinfectant, and I haven't washed the glass plate yet. Oh, and I have chemistry stuff to do today too!! Jill -- glad to hear your living situation at least has options!! PAD -- woo-hoo for your 3 done, have fun at group tonight!!Sending good vibes to Mr. D.!!
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.
Thanks! He went in at 7:42 and I just got back to the hospital and still in. Should be another 2 hours or so. Was home, did some laundry, but for some reason, didn't feel like running.

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.

Good morning Penguins!
Damaris, I hope Richard is doing OK. MTA: I had only seen yesterday's thread when you mentioned the angio so I thought this was not a big deal...but I just read some of the other dailies and saw this really is a big deal! I'm so sorry you and Richard are going through this and I am praying for you right now - for his health and your peace of mind.
D - glad to hear that your hubby is okay and out of surgery!
