Hi ya'll. Looks like some good running happening out there. Good representin' folks. 
Yesterday after my 16M LR (I actually completed this one w/out walking, WOOHOO!!), DW the kiddos and I went out for a hike in the Sipsey Wilderness. I had seen that a waterfall on trail 209, had made Backpacker's Top 10 campsites, so I wanted to check it out. Thanks to our severe drought howvever, the waterfall was MIA. But it was a beautiful hike w/ lots of neat bluffs and caves to check out along the way. 
Here are some pics. <img alt="" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2245/1571960798_0a9e518c31_m.jpg" style="border:0px solid;">

aemerryman · Oct 15, 2007

Thanks Tonya...that's what I suspected, but it just looked so funny/weird only on that one side. Although that *is* my weaker side...maybe I just need more spinach. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">

Flem - great pics. 
Not sure how many want to see it, or how many will on the weekend thread, but the tattoo is healed enough for pics. So here it is, completed. <img alt="" src="http://i22.tinypic.com/2hxoh8z.jpg" style="border:0px solid;"> <img alt="" src="http://i20.tinypic.com/5osf21.jpg" style="border:0px solid;"> <img alt="" src="http://i24.tinypic.com/euk5qg.jpg" style="border:0px solid;">

Nice pics Flem...looks like you guys had fun!

sauconRunner · Oct 15, 2007

Way to go EQ! 
Great pix Flem & nice finished ink, kp. 
Last night we got a sitter for DD and went up to my cousins (only 2 miles up) and scared a bunch of 13 year olds. She was having a halloween party for her daughters friends. They live in the woods and made trails where they put all kinds of scarey stuff on it and made them do a scavenger hunt. The adults all hid and scared them. The decorations were awesome and it was a ton of fun. The adults who didn't hide in the woods hung out on the deck. DH had a bit too many beers when he was done terrorizing kids. It was a lot of fun. 
This morning we headed to West Chester for an Air Show (RotorFest). It's the only helicopter air show around apparently. It was really cool. I enjoyed the military choppers the best. The Chinook & Black Hawks were my favorites. Awesome weather to be outside. It was chilly in the morning but then it was 72 and sunny! 
Anyway, just popping in to say hi. DD is bugging me to go in the hot tub. Theia can attest that this is a laborous job. You have to play barbie's and you are only allowed to have Aurora. Ariel, Belle and Snow White are DD's favorites and noone can play with them. But its still fun. 
Later taters!

Jill · Oct 15, 2007

No, but I've spent a lot of time there. I love Pgh!!

Great mileage Bob! Prae, did you register yet? EQ, congrats on your PR!

Nice pics, Flem. And kp, that's just a little too much butt cheek for me... <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">

bard73 · Oct 15, 2007

A little Gatorade....

bard73 · Oct 15, 2007

I'm sorry that you didn't get your BQ. I still think you are a rockin' 30's wimmin and you are going to scorch that race in AZ.

bard73 · Oct 15, 2007

Thanks everyone for the good vibes, motivational sayings, and/or butt-kicking that you gave me on Friday. I did make it out for my weekend run today. Physically felt OK, hope to get back on track with my weekday runs this week.

equinox marathon 43 · Oct 15, 2007

Hi 30s

Full race report is posted in the Finish Line forum.

Frankie71 · Oct 15, 2007

Howdy gang, just call me Mr Fix-It. Seems like all Ive been doing is fixing things. Sheesh, dont they make good reliable toilets anymore? Ann Nice to see you postin' Hope the swelling goes down soon. My elbows are a bit sore from lifting Friday if its any consolation. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> Jill judging by your post, my quesiton was answered. Wasnt sure if you had got my email or not about the Philly shirt. theia Big ups to you! Youll do an awesome job! trigirl Sorry to hear you didnt BQ today but now Ill get an opportunity to meet you in January. The course is extremly flat and the weather is always nice, you shouldnt have any issues BQing here. This is making my life hard, I now know 6 people that are running either the full or the half at PF Changs. Decisions, decisions <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/confused.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Confused"> cactus good job on your 5k at the RFTC. I had kicked around the idea of running it but knew from past experience that its quite the crowded run. Any plans on running the New Times? Ive been kicking around the idea of running the 10k. Crane you are so right, we are a bunch of nuts. Drunk registering ( I need to try that someday ) flying across country to hang with a bunch of cool peeps who I have never met in person ( 2nd trip coming up ) and running in some really adverse conditions. But it wouldnt be us if we didnt do these things. Looking foward to meeting you in Philly! Moe great job getting out there and getting the miles in this week!

Runnin-from-the-Law · Oct 15, 2007

Hi All - 
Sounds like alot of great runs this weekend! 
I'm more sore today than I was after the TC 10 Mile last weekend, and I didn't run at all! (Went on a much needed vacation with DH, no kids; Did accomplish a lot of beer drinking, crappy food eating and LOTS of walking while sightseeing!

trigirl · Oct 15, 2007

Hey guys, back fro m my 6yo neices bday party. had meself a LARGE glass of wime and now I'm going to me bed. Frank, see you in Jan. can I sway you to the Mary? didn't you say you've done it before? I guess there's a silver lining with not making my goal today but it still stings a lot right now. I'm spent. 
good night. 
XO 
me.

Timr1 · Oct 15, 2007

Hey All,

This pic below goes out to all you racers this weekend and everyone else checkin' in so far. It made me laugh when I saw it. Hope I got everyone. Sage, Timr, Cactus, Jill, Heather and Theia - go racers. Mrs. boB - good vibes to the future moms around here. (Beaker & Amichel inclusive) boB - cause of your avatar HH for the photos. holy crap that's some serious pool time. EQ for banging mary really fast...I mean banging out a full mary really fast Brandy and Scratch for big miles tonya for feeling good and 10K'ing it well Pacer being fast and (mile) high at the same time Maple & his persistence of the OHR kerikson - gettin' faster Mrs Soul for kicking the lava out of Pele kp for gettin' large (miles) in '08 (cool ink - don't hike 'em up any higher else you'll be accused of wearing a thong) moe, prae for getting a groove on Flem - just posting good pics of the family roo = humor 24X7 McT - just cause Bard - gettin' back at it. mykemp - man, you're fast duck - you are a BC fan or just not an ND fan. Either way, it's all good. LLongandfastberg - that says it all Winter for the {{{}}}'s - I'll take 'em anytime, any place hawki - the toughest lessons learned are the ones that usually hurt - good luck w/the knee. I was injured over and over before I figured out I had to step up my weight lifting/cross training. Coach T's focus Craney for coming up with an alternative slogan for the 30's Dianosaur for getting back into the groove Solar - a bazillion reasons, but really just 'cause korbs is gettin' skinny cus - we will pry you out into the open 
dancin moon Ann - getting a little too pumped up. Hope you're feeling better. RFTL - welcome back Prae - talking like a runner means you're cool trigirl - bummer. keep your head up and chalk it up to experience. we're all pulling for you. frankie - aka, roto-rooter eccabex, , maccabeth, Litch, noni, BigG, kini - ran out of time, but wanted to sneak y'all (or is that ya'll) in here. just a shout out to ya's. 
and Maria, I was going to pry this off and send it to you...but seeing how the parking lot was full of hungry shoppers, I opted against the felony (?) <img alt="" src="http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb44/dsweet20/woot.jpg" style="border:0px solid;"> 
Now I have to ask. Which one of you owns this car? C'mon, how many 'wooters' are out there? 
BTW - You Pburghers - great trails out there just west of the city. Love 'em. 
I installed car seats and assembled the crib today. Also attended a wake for a childhood neighbor (lingering effects from a stroke), but I got to see some of my old elementary school friends - after a few beers, all was good. 
Time for another beer 
Ciao
