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.
Ginny, any leftover trauma from the fall? Hope you're feeling ok!
Buelligan, is your back any better?
DH and I got out and ran this morning. What with one thing and another, it was our first run since last Monday. A little stiff, but no worries, and the temps were in the upper 50's, so that was all kinds of nice. I got some birthday money from my folks last week, so I think I'll schedule myself a massage. And a haircut!!
Morning! Didn't run at all this weekend. Saturday I did a triple workout series (Barre, Pilates and weights, so I wanted to conserve my legs for Sunday). But then the power was out for 4 hours on Sunday, during the time I use the TM. Being that it was still 98F outside by 6pm, I didn't run anywhere. So, there.
I have 6 and weights.
HopesMom, nice run.

HopesMom - I'm glad you had a nice run this morning.
D - good luck with your run this afternoon. Did the electric company ever explain what was going on yesterday?
AFM: I'm still very sore. We walked Ben yesterday and I was stiff but okay while moving, except going downhill. There are still a lot of movements that make me yelp, so I'll continue with the ice on my knee and shoulder and elevating the leg after he gets his walk today.
They didn't but I'll ask a neighbor and see if they knew. It was around 10 houses that had issues. I was happy they came in so quickly. But they we excavating behind some house so I suspect something broke.
