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.
Morning, Penguins!! This weekend I'm facing a chorus holiday party on Saturday (for which I still have to shop and make food), a quartet rehearsal on Sunday, and a probably contentious management team meeting Sunday evening, to hash out the issues caused by the grown woman acting like a 6-year-old. However, I've spent the last three days (and nights) doing research, composing presentations in my head, thinking about how the conversations could go and what points need to be made, etc etc. I think I may be ready to let them go for today and release a little of the stress. So today will be mainly about slaying work dragons, then hopefully this weekend I can clear up a lot of other things that are hovering over my head, and all will be well.
How about y'all?
HopesMom - good luck with all your weekend activities, especially your contentious meeting.
I have 8 to do later. I'm waiting for the wind to die down a little, as it's a cold one. I'm rearranging my runs since tomorrow is supposed to have a wintry mix with a high of 32 and I hate running on ice.
Hi pens! My internet has been down on my computer for a few days, but today we just got our Google wifi network installed! It's working great! We've been waiting for one to become available for over a month now, so it was a nice treat.
Ran 6 with a friend after work. 31 degrees but no precipitation.
