Bugs, I think you've heard it all from everyone- so I'll just say hang in there.... and I think it's unbelievable that you can run 12 miles on a treadmill dave, congrats-- somehow I missed that you got a promotion... that's great. Erika, very nice mileage... sounds like you're coming back Mr. I, thanks for always starting the weekly thread Murphy- what marathon are you running again? sounds like fun to run it with family. 12 miles for me today to make up for no long run this past weekend... too windy- but did the first 8 miles with some friends- a little too fast- but it was good to get it done.

Hey Kimmie..Im running Vegas. My third time. This week has been brutal--in a good way. Business is good. But running has been non-existant. And Im getting a bit stuffy..ughh. I must get in a couple miles tonight at the Y. And get the tree up, and ship out a bunch of stuff..not enough time in the day.

Murphy, Good Luck this weekend! Excited for you. Good to keep the legs moving but run easy, easier better than harder. Nice weather, makes me want to hop on a plane. I need to run 2 hours faster this weekend. Weather High: 23 °F RealFeel®: 0 °F Mostly cloudy, windy 22mph and cold with a chance for a bit of snow or flurries. Yuck. Run it outside or on TM? I decided to take it very easy last night and just ran 30 minutes slow and to bed early last night. Must be something to this rest, I feel great today. Tonight is a Nobby TM hill workout, which is suppose to be hard but ending feeling as strong at the end as the start.

well I see they changed it from 'Showers' to 'Few Showers'

Good luck Murphy..... time goal? Bugs, you train hard--- always love reading that- my to do list is overwhelming me and trying to shove my running out the window- so hard to stay motivated.... my back is better today... I ran an article that was posted in one of the other forums- too lazy to link it- anyways, this author says basically- don't say that you want to be a better runner if you're not willing to put in the work. ok, ok.... so how badly do I want this? Do I want it so badly that I'm willing to start going to bed earlier? Or give up time with friends? Today needs to be a medium long run and again the to do list is very long- no decorations up yet- parents arriving tonight, etc........ I do tend to complain here, don't I? thanks for putting up with it. Good runs everybody...

4.5 miles of speed work... thanks Bugs and Shan for getting me out the door- Now, to clean the house..

Sure, I have a race and the race calendar doesnt get posted on thi first page... I suppose my time goal is under 5:00:00..Thats been my goal for the last 9, why stop now? I would be happy to get under 5, but thrilled with 4:45:00. We'll see. Its starting to feel like Groundhog day.

Look at the team home page, Murph. I had a "good luck Murphy" on there. Guess I'll update it.
