Return To Racing
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!)
Happy Dork Day !!!
LR for us.
5 miles done this morning.
Singer who runs a smidge
Morning, Penguins!! Tomorrow is DH's 50th birthday, so I suspect I will spend this evening telling him that he's not old. 50 is getting him down a little. Hopefully it'll help that I bought him a video game for his birthday! Jerryb -- thanks for the calendar tip!! The website I looked at said it's also Cow Appreciation Day, so don't forget to hug any cows you pass by!!PAD -- woo-hoo for your 5 done!!
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.
Hi!! I have 6 with strides today before heading to Chicago.
i mentioned this in the dailies but not sure if I did here. After Chicago, hubby is heading to brain surgery to remove a brain tumor on Tuesday. Please keep him in your thoughts.

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.
