Starting us off. Happy Birthday (53rd) FalconFixer! Sounds like a good day.
Have a coffee meeting (well, tea for me) this morning so have to rush. 2.5 outside miles. Pain in butt but rest of leg felt pretty good. Pain might be from the doc and the ART.
2.5 treadmill miles so 5 for the day.
Out there running since dinosaurs roamed the earth
Mornin' KSA and the rest.
Sorry about the butt pain, KSA. Roll it?

Have a greta Tuesday!

Without ice cream there would be darkness and chaos.

Early morning easy 5.7 miles with DD.
Falconfixer, belated birthday wishes. Pleased to hear that you met up with Marshrunner & Warrior Princess from RW days. Are you still in contact with Bosn?
Jay, thanks as always for the daily summary. My comment Sunday regarding the 'elderly couple' was more from the angle that I don't see myself as elderly, especially when I'm running.
Started running at age 60.
AG 60-64 PR - 5K 25:45, 10K 53:28, HM 1:57:39, Marathon 4:32:09
AG 65-69 PR - 5K 26:11, HM 2:02:39, Marathon 5:04:47
22 cycling miles on a stunningly beautiful morning.
Be safe. Be kind.
Trails are hard!
Hadn't noticed--did the Caps win last night? I'm in "just wait until next year" mode for hockey.
Need a fast half for late fall. Then I need to actually train for it.
Falconfixer happy belated birthday!
Mike E that is a tiring workout! Not the running thing the playing catch part.
tomwhite if it is good banana pudding it might make the whole jury duty thing worthwhile.
I put in an hour on the elliptical this morning. Then drove to the office for my final day of class for the semester!!!!! Now back to writing code.
In case it slipped your mind, join the Rosie Ruiz Fan Club for this year's Reach the Beach Relay on September 14 and 15! We need you!!! We are not looking for speed. Just a group to throw a 30 hour party with in a couple of vans. So join today! Just send me a message via the RA messaging system and I will get back to you. If you have my regular email or prefer sending a Facebook personal message that is fine too. I can guarantee you will have a great time. That or you are clearly in need of psychiatric help! Remember the sooner you sign up the less you pay!
Live like you are dying not like you are afraid to die.

DD's lacrosse team won last night 7 - 4, and DD got 3 of the goals - very fun to watch. Unfortunately, some of the parents on the other team were very vocal in negative ways for most of the game, and especially so when one of their team got hit in the head with a lacrosse stick by one of our girls when they were both trying to get the ball. Honestly, you have a bunch of girls running around waving sticks at a ball and quite regularly someone gets hit in the head. No one is doing it on purpose. But the parents on the other team behaved as if it was an assassination attempt.
Rest day for me today.
Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
. . . Unfortunately, some of the parents on the other team were very vocal in negative ways . . .
Which is one of the reasons when The Hub was recently asked if he would be interested in returning to coaching to coach American Legion Baseball, he declined. The other reason - he spent 41 consecutive summers on a baseball field. He's done.
...Happy B'Day falconfixer
and
Happy anniversary to Catwhoorg
===============
skipped the Banana Pudding after Grand Jury
(we''true billed''
some Sick Stuff..........the details killed my appetite)
..........30-min ARC trainer......decided to concentrate on Leg Work,
(operative leg's calf
is smaller than other leg for some odd reason)
..nothing takes the place of persistence.....
Happy birthday FalconFixer
Managed 3.1 and not sure how. Been working the voting polls since 5am (ended at 7pm). I'm too old for burning the candle at both ends and the middle.
Night all.

Hello everybody!
Just stopped in to say hi. And to congratulate Tramps on a nice Caps victory. I hope the Wild players watched those games to see how hard you have to work to actually win a series.
Okay--gotta go. See ya!
Hey y'all, thank you for the birthday wishes. 4 running miles after work....along with another 3+ miles walking. Not sure if the knee is improving or not.
As for the soon-to-be new unit I'll be transferring to....I'm still scoping the breadth and depth and ... well .... wow.
Tramps, as a Pittsburgher I shouldn't have laughed...but that is a funny .gif.
Quickadder, as a matter of fact; yes. He is on Strava. Still swimming, biking and running.
Have a great night everyone!
Another quick post.
Happy anniversary Catwhoorg
Happy Birthday FalconFixer
Holly, great job on the marathon this weekend! I hope to be there next year.
I did a 5 miler today after work in hot 80F, loving it!
