Jlynne, it sounds like a good "wake" and thanks for your kind comments.
At 5:30, an hour after the doctor's switchboard closed, I was surprised to get a call from one of the staff. They have the ultrasound results but he hasn't had a chance to review it. He wants me to go in for a blood test and urine sample in the morning.

My running buddie and I sure has a great fun chatting away as I charged up the hill.
OM does hill repeats for her 50th birthday and mari chats away on her big bill
No wonder she likes Heartbreak, Doomsday, etc. so much.
me: "it was great fun fading away as I struggled up the big hill."

thanks jeanne; you're like a sister to us too.
good luck opie.

Nice to see you back on the roads, Tramps. Be patient with your comeback--it will all come back.
I did 8 miles in 1:01:39 then trudged up the treadhill at 4% in 39:27...and I bumped it up to 6% for a little at the end just teach it a lesson. Boy am I glad I'm done those things...well until the real thing. Now that I'm going into my taper weeks after this weekend, I'm done with those dang hills and I feel like all the hard work is done...even though I have a 22 miler on Saturday.
Okay--I'm outta here. See ya!
Jlynne a beer in somebody's honor is not a bad way to celebrate somebody's life. Not inappropriate at all in my book. Irish wakes are famous for a reason and even though I am not Irish it is how I would hope others would honor my passing.
Spareribs cute story! I would say something about my CEO having done something but I have never had a real job in my whole life and so never had a CEO!
Opie I sure hope they get all this resolved for you quick!
breger1 glad you are getting better.
evanflein so how come you got the 6 mile memo yesterday and I did not? You must be on that special person list fatozzig hinted at!!! How come I am not on it!
I decided to do my long run for the week today. Then I decided that my 21 mile run in Austin did not really "count" since I basically crawled most of it. Also, the weather was cool and drizzly but was supposed to clear up a bit. Yea, you can guess the rest. Off I went for 21 miles. Actually, it went fine. All but the weather. It never cleared up. Yech, 21 miles in a drizzle is not really my ideal of IRC. Still I was really happy to have pulled it off and without any apparent damage to my hamstrings.
Live like you are dying not like you are afraid to die.
