    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 !!!  Looks like a RD after yesterday's 8.  Probably a long walk(s).  Lately I have been taking GPS on walks to make sure we are over 20:00 miles.

        Morning Jerry,

         

        Not sure if I'll run today or not, my knee has a little twinge to it today and  I've got gym tonight.

          Morning!  Yesterday was a rest day from running but got home to storms and rain and therefore, we must run because it's the only way it's as cold as 86F. So rest day tonight; hoping it does not rain, LOL.

          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! It's my anniversary today, and DD also wants to see a movie, but maybe I'll run 1.

                4 mile walk turned out to be 3.5 mile walk, .5 run as rain started.  DW driving back to drive an elderly walker home.

                 

                Happy anniversary, Zel.
