Hot Summer Penguin Weekend (Read 10 times)

PADRunner


    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!)

      Morning. I've got a meeting this morning and work tonight. Try to get a short run in between.

        Good morning PAD.

         

        SRD, but I stubbed my #2 toe last night so now it is an URD.   It's numb and can't bend it, but I  can walk ok. Hopefully it isn't broken and I can run tomorrow.

         

        Much cooler today.

         

        Have a great weekend.

          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.

            Morning! We are at the airport ready to fly home. Had a nice run this morning with Lurch who graciously agreed to be my tour guide. Photo in the other thread, but my phone hates posting photos to this forum so you need to go over there if you want to see it.

              Hi pens!

               

              It is my birthday! I had a nice run, going out to eat later. Can't stay out too late though, because I have 12 miles planned before the crack of dawn tomorrow!
