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!)
Say hi to Bill
Went to the track meet last night and PRs in both 100 15.94 and 200 33.48
The 5 this morning felt pretty good.

PAD, sweet!! I bet you were running tall this morning!!
AFM, I had a good time at chorus last night, but I'm awfully glad it's Friday. I'm in desperate need of a vacation, and isn't it lucky that I have one coming right up? DH and I are flying out next Thursday to Phoenix. My folks are flying to Albuquerque a few days earlier, and we're all going to meet up and go see the Grand Canyon, Bryce, Moab, and a few other things around there. It'll be a nearly 2 week, trip, and I cannot wait!!
Our chorus is going to meet up tonight and stroll/sing on the Downtown Mall, hopefully recruiting new singers and gigs. And if not, we'll still have fun!
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.
Oh, who's Bill?
Return To Racing
Getting a little steamy today (not Miami steamy though). Increased our walk to .1 miles, so we did 6.0 on the bike path. Probably worse tomorrow. Stay cool.

Ah. "Hi, Bill!"
From the Internet.
Hi pens!
I'm done with my part-time tutoring gig! Gonna miss them but not the sleep I've been losing working at night :P I only had a couple hours of stuff to do in the lab today, laid down for a quick nap at 9 this morning and woke up at 12:30. Whoops.
5 mile recovery super earl this morning, felt great, the nap felt even greater. Long run tomorrow because I have a concert tomorrow night, and ain't no way I'm gonna want to get up to run 13 Sunday morning.
