Beginners and Beyond

Wednesday Penguins are halfway there!! (Read 12 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.

      Whoa, oh!  Livin' on a prayer!!

       

      So DH had a late night volunteering for the chorus selling concessions, so we skipped this morning's run in favor of sleep.  We probably won't make it up, as I have quartet rehearsal tonight and chorus rehearsal tomorrow, so two more late nights.  It's all good -- with no goals except to run, all we have to do is run.

       

      So what's up in the igloo?

          We're back to hot and humid, so I'll probably do 6 on the TM this afternoon.

           

          HM - enjoy your two nights of rehearsal.

           

          PAD - good job on the early run.

          Barking Mad To Run

            Great run/walk in the early morning yesterday.   Planning on 3, but felt so good I ended up tacking on another mile.  Ran through a local park that goes right by the San Antonio Zoo.  In the wee hours of the morning, it's kinda creepy hearing the animal sounds coming from the zoo.  Probably made me run a bit faster, lol.

             

            Today will be an after work run.  Haven't decided where yet.  May go down to the San Antonio Riverwalk.  Weather here is getting cooler, finally.  We are in the low 90s now instead of the high 90s.

            Former Bad Ass

              Afternoon!  I have been cooped up in court in three counties and unable to check often, gah.  Ran 5 after Pilates yesterday and tonight I have 7 with 2 at MP.

               

              Hope, sleep is good.

               

              Hiya, Scott!

               

              Ginny, didn't know there was anything BUT hot and humid.

               

              PAD, nice 5.

                    Tennis with a small racquet, small net, a wiffle ball and played on a basketball court.   We were the only ones in the class that had not played before...embarrassing Sad
