Birthday Mondaily (Read 39 times)

    ...cause it's my birthday!

     

    Not doing anything special, I've already celebrated a few times. I usually like to run on my b-day but I am content to rest today. We have a lot do to before heading up to NY for the holidays later on.

     

    QOTD: Do you have any birthday traditions?

     

    Since mine is so close to Christmas I don't have many traditions, except I am usually with my family in NY which is nice.

      6 miles on very icy asphalt then some circuit training at the gym. Planning a long trail run with friends for tomorrow, so I kept it easy today.

       

      TrailsnCocktails- I hope you have a great birthday!

       

      QOTD: Not really. When you get out of your 20's it begins to lose its significance.

        Happy Birthday Trails!

         

        After a week of working overtime (*phew!*) I was finally able to get out for a nice 6.5 miles in the snowy hills yesterday.  It was beautiful out, and it felt good to get my body moving.  I get out early for Christmas Eve & have Christmas off, so even though I have to work late today and later in the week, I know I will be hitting those trails at least a couple more time this week.

         

        QOTD:  No, I'm not really all that big on my birthday.  It's just another day to me.

          Happy Birthday!  Smile   I'm doing my best to fight off a cold (hoping not flu), it sidelined my run yesterday and I'll have to play it by ear today

           

          I did take in a movie yesterday at the library- "the Long Green Line" it highlights a cross country coach and his team looking for their 25th state championship- very uplifting movie!

            I am supposed to run 20 after work, but I may have to head down to help my oldest daughter out. I think maybe her checking account got drained with that Target fiasco. So, I am not sure what is up just yet. Of course, I don't know what me being down there will do. She has checks from her account here... We'll see. The bank should replace her money for fraudulent charges. I am not sure how all that works. I think hackers should be castrated.

             

            QOTD: No, nothing special.

              Happy birthday, T&C.  Have a great day!

               

              SRD today, which is a good thing since it's biblically raining out.

               

              LB2 - CNN Money had this information up on their website about getting monies back where they belonged if you were hacked (including phone numbers).  Good luck.

              QOTD:  At my age, the only thing I look forward to is Birthday Sex

                Nothing today, looks like nothing for the next week. Took a hard fall and brusied a few ribs, it hurts to open my eyes right now let alone do any running.  I'm signed up for a 50 in less than two weeks getting to the starting line is going to be questionable now.

                 

                QOTD: I used to celebrate my birthday by going to the bar and getting free birthday shots, now that I'm older I go to the bar and get sympathy shot.

                  Happy birthday TnC!! Woo Hoo.

                   

                  Have not posted ina  while...cuz I'm NOT running.  Sucks, sucks, sucks.  I am having issues with my left knee.  I am going to have to suck it up and visit the Doctor.

                   

                  I will have to live vicariously through you all for a while.  I desperately want to be running on the trails in winter - my fav time to run.

                   

                  QOTD: No - just another day.

                  My favorite day of the week is RUNday

                    Happy Birthday Trails!

                      Happy Birthday, TnC!

                       

                      I got in some decent running over the weekend -- on the road Saturday and on snowshoes Sunday.  The snowshoes kicked my ass all over the place.

                       

                      QOTD: Not really.  I ran my age in miles once when I turned 29.

                      Running is dumb.

                        Happy birthday TnC !!!

                         

                        Did 5 mi in the crisp and sunny 35*, sure beats the 70's humid and rainy we had 2 days ago.  My legs are not really recovered yet from the Cajun Coyote, but I'm now "in training" for the Houston Marathon.  Yup, gonna do that 26.2 concrete thing.

                         

                        qotd: I'll also echo AT with the Birthday Sex, but that is followed closely by chocolate cake!!!  As soon as the cake takes over first place I know I'll be "over the hill".

                          Getting ready to head out for a flat 8-9 mile run on the road. Legs are feeling a little beat up lately, hopefully this will help with some recovery. Ran with DS yesterday. He hadn't ran in a while so I was able to stomp on him some. I'm sure that will change in the near future as he gets back into running again.

                           

                          TNC -- Happy Birthday. DD is a new years baby so I know how you suffer   with having a birthday so close to Christmas. She grumbles about it every year.

                           

                           I think hackers should be castrated.

                           

                           

                          LB2 -- You are too nice. I could think of some better things to do to them.

                           

                          QOTD: I mostly try to ignore my birthday. I see no reason to celebrate getting older and slower.

                            Happy Birthday !

                             

                            My plan is to go do some hill repeats , hasn't gotten past the planning stage but I'm working towards it

                             

                            QOTD: My birthday was yesterday and it usually gets caught up in the Christmas stuff , at this point there have been too many anyway . Also I have a birthday curse , something generally bad , strange or weird happens , yesterday was no exception .

                              I ran an crispy 3 today very early. My new yak trax extremes make such a huge difference in my winter running. Without them today's run on crispy copped up snow would have been difficult.

                               

                              Boyjame: so sorry u are having knee problems.It really sucks when that happens.

                               

                              qotd: We usually celebrate with a family dinner.

                                I'm the 10th and hubby the 14th So we use to always go so where for the week...but that's starting to slow down.  I usually give my husband lots of booze on his birthday and tell him the next day that he received birthday sex.
