Good morning, Lisa!  The kids must have done a great job. I love the music.

I did 4 yesterday half mile loops at the park. It might have been 4.5 since it was faster than I expected so I added a lap in case I miscounted. )likely)  It was a perfect day for it-50's and breezy.  Hip is ok this a.m.

My plumber is coming this a.m (I think) and the TDS (internet) guy is supposed to come, too. I didn't run at the greenway  on the way home from my mom's yesterday because the internet guy was supposed to come at noon, but they called at 2 and said he couldn't make it.  Hopefully today. It's way slower and there's interference on the line.

I'll try to be back to catch up on personals. Everyone have a great day!

Lisa....they must have done a phenomenal job with les Mis.  Love the music!  Hope the calf feels better.

Carol...we knew you would do it!

Did do my DVD yesterday morning, SDO today, 5 on the schedule for tomorrow morning.  I am following an old SmartCoach program from runners world that I have used before.  I seem to do better if it is staring me in the face on the fridge every day.  I kind of started late though and it has me doing 9 on Sunday, don't think I should do that.  I just want to get up to 10 miles again before the Half, which is still 5 weeks away.  I should be able to do that if my body behaves.

Goodmorning Camille!

Have good day at work Damaris!

Ginny

Ginny, you impressed me, too!  I hate planks and other static exercises.

Gatsby, I hope you're feeling normal again. Stomach bugs are misery.  Did I miss the link to your photos?

Cindy, I'm pretty impressed with your 20"/day of exercise. You're very consistent.

Marjorie, it's hard to believe Easter is next week.  I hope everything goes OK with your dad.  It's nice that your making baskets for them. I always do for DD but might copy your idea for my mom this year. She could use a few things though she's not a candy eater.

Karen, I love those pics of you on Facebook.  You look so lean and fast!

Tessa, I hope your life is settling down a bit.

Carol, it's exciting that you're going to  do the full.  Enjoy!

No Judy today?

Thinking of people we're missing, anyone know how Linda from CA is doing?

Both the plumber and the internet guy have come.  I have laundry going now and water isn't spewing everywhere, so things are looking up!

I signed up for a 5k on Sat. We'll see if I can manage the "Don't race!" "run them easy" and "don't compare times to last year" advice from my PT discharge session.  I think it'll be fun just to be in a race atmosphere again, so I'm excited.

On another note, last night I counted up the states I've done a half or full in and it's 21.  At my first half (Iowa), I jokingly said I might be able to do a half in half the states. I think I've shared this a few times, but it was my first exposure to Maniacs and 50 Staters.  Our mouths were hanging open as we overheard some of the conversations! Some guy was not  just running a marathon in 50 states, but trying to BQ in all 50.  At the time, I thought they were nuts!  Times and perspectives change. Now, they/you guys seem normal!  That joke became a goal I've casually pursued over the last several years and if I can get to that distance again over summer, I want to finish the 25 next fall/winter.  It such fun looking at race calendars.

I'm heading to the gym to for core and will walk at the park.

Camille Judy is off internet while on vacation so she won't be on for a few weeks. We have a plumber coming tomorrow to put the full house filter in and fix a leaky faucet in the shower. The hot water heater should be in by Friday too.

I am trying to be sweet Lisa!  Ha. The problem with his linked in is he has nothing in his profile. His name and contact and that is it. Just odd.

Ginny ied side planks are tough!
