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.
SRD for me today. It's been cooler at night here, but still pretty hot during the day. Low 90's. Keep your cool, Penguins!!
Return To Racing
Singlet weather this morning, but cool front tonight.
5.5 on the bike path. Rollling the achy hammy.
We were cooler (80) but we're going back to 88 or so the next two days, then dropping down to the high 70s again. Dew points are in the low 60s, so not too bad.
I'll be running with the Beer Runners tonight, for the first time in months. Our LRS is celebrating its one year anniversary, so there should be a good turn out in support.

Yuengling or Smithwick's?
We had a tease on Saturday with the 80's. This week it's back to the 90s.
5 before sunup for me this morning.
It is really cool here today - might not get over 70! I love it. It even drizzled on us a bit earlier but now it's just cloudy.
Hopesmom, PAD, & Jerry, sorry you are still so hot!
Ginny, have fun tonight!
Penguin Power!
I haven't run the past two days. I've had some crazy headaches. I think allergies/sinuses are acting up which is causing them.
Upcoming Races: Run as One 4M (4/24) * Japan Run 4M (5/8) * Brooklyn Half (5/21)
Jill - my allergies have been bad lately too. I hope your headache gets better.
Jerry - Bells Oktoberfest. Tonight we ran from a beer store that has about 30 different beers on tap, as well as bottles from all over the world. Fun to try different ones.
88 degrees felt hot, but it was nice to run with others for once.
Just what you need with the big move Jill. Feel better.

Bell's is terrific. We are going to try to visit there after the Grand Rapids HM next month.
