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.
It's "Globally Organized Hug A Runner Day", otherwise known as G.O.H.A.R.D. Catchy, no? So hey, hug a fellow runner today! Only not during their run. And perhaps you should explain yourself first. Ok, maybe just limit it to runners you know.
Man, this is difficult!
Short week this week, I'll be out of town Wednesday through Sunday, then I'm also off work on Monday (because I finally got smart and asked for an extra day). Woo-hoo!!

Morning! I have 4 and weights today. Stuck at a deposition all day today.
I hugged Michael Wardian yesterday. That counts, right?

*Googles Michael Wardian*
Sure, that counts!!
I don't think anybody would want to be hugged by me today. I feel like Typhoid Mary as it is, spreading my germs with every sneeze, cough and breath. And since Jim had a nasty stomach virus yesterday, I don't think I want any of his hugs at the moment. I don't need that on top of the cold.
I went out anyway and ran 6.2 easy miles. I didn't have a lot of energy, but it wasn't as bad as I expected.
