Beginners and Beyond

Terrific Thursday Penguins! (Read 6 times)


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.

      So today is sunny with a  high of 71.  Then in the 50's tomorrow, then in the 40's for the next 5-7 days.  Enjoy today while you have it!!  I have chorus rehearsal tonight, which I should actually make this week.  Crossing my fingers work doesn't blow up in my face for no reason!!

        Morning!  I woke up with a bad migraine, so I had to cancel PT, boo.  I have Pilates and 7 tonight.

        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.

          D -  I hope you feel better soon.

           

          HM - enjoy your sunshine and spring weather. Good luck with rehearsal tonight.

           

          We have 60 and sunshine with winds again today. The forecast is for some light snow tomorrow. I'll do my 5 after lunch. Cold meds are making me feel really groggy.

            Docket, hope the migraine subsides so you can run!

             

            Ginny, sorry about the groggy!!  Between the groggy and snow forecast, I would SO be hibernating!  Or maybe I'd realize that at 60 degrees, today would be better than tomorrow ...

             

            I got quite a bit of stuff done for my Awards Coordinator duties, so that's good.  I think that's mostly set now, except for letting people know where to drop off traveling awards and reminding all the presenters to dress nicely.  Samples are rolling along, although I've had to dilute them, so the results won't be as nice.  Still, there will be results, which is what counts.  Still have a lot to do in the next few days!
