Beginners and Beyond

Good morning, Tuesday Penguins!! (Read 15 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 does anyone know where Scottydog has run off to?  Is he microchipped?

       

      More proposals today, but at least I'm still on track to get them done by the deadline.  Raining here.  I drove DH's car today, because mine's due for an oil change, and he had filled up his gas tank!  Since mine was quite low, that makes me all happy.  Hopefully he'll fill mine today too, which will make me even happier!

        HopesMom - nice that your husband takes care of things like that.  Mine does too.  Good luck with your paperwork today.

         

        I'll probably be going to the Beer Runners tonight.  There is supposed to be a Hoka rep at the running store this evening, and I may check them out.  DH has been wearing a pair off and on and still isn't sure whether he likes them.

          morning!  I didn't run last night because the allergy shot exhausted me to no end.  Pilates and 7 tonight.

           

          Hope, good luck with the proposals.


          Ginny, have fun at the beer run.

          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.

            Hi folks! Testing season has begun!

             

            After school,  I have 8 scheduled. I'll either run all 8, or start off running and finish up in the pool.

              Went for a walk, in between storms.  I actually got a few minutes of sunshine before the wind picked up, the temperature dropped, and the clouds started looming all black and ominous.

              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.

                Afternoon, ran 5 this morning and have a group workout tonight.

                 

                Scotty's been posting his RRs but not much in the penguin threads.

                  Hello Penguins!

                   

                  Ginny, I hope you enjoyed your beer run!  Our LRS should be starting those up again soon for the summer.  I've never done one but really want to. Smile

                   

                  I've been a busy penguin.  Running lots (10 on Sat, 15 on Sunday, 7 today) and registered for 4 (FOUR) races in the last 2 days.  Looks like I found my mojo.

                    Allison - which races?  WTG!  I signed up for a 13.1 mile fun run, with beer, but no races.
