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.
Sooooooo glad it's Friday!! I've managed to conquer most of my work to-do list, just four more proposals to read, and something I want to try on one set of samples. The techs are still here, but presumably they'll be done in a couple of hours, so mostly today will be a low-stress day. And then tomorrow is Major Sleeping Saturday!!!!
Morning! I have 5-7 miles tonight.
Hope, enjoy the proposals. I am so glad it's Friday as well.

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.

7 and hump day for me.
HopesMom - I hope you have a great and restful weekend.
PAD - good job on the 7. Have fun at the races. (I know, it's work, but it can still be fun, no?)
Damaris - I hope it was cool enough to run outdoors for your 5-7.
Cold and windy again here. I really wasn't in the mood to run today, but tomorrow they are calling for snow/sleet so I ran while I could get outdoors. 8.1 blustery miles.
