Is everyone sleeping in? <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"> 
I just got back from 6.7 miles in 1:21:39. 
Slowly chipping away at the distance to 13.1.

Brandy · Aug 11, 2007

wow. where is everyone? Hopefully out RUNNING! I will be doing that very shortly..10 minutes or so. Big storms rolled on through last night waking us up at 330 or so. Freight train type if you know what I mean. It was hard to get back to sleep and therefore hard to wake up. Luckily I only have 13 this morning. I will then be going back to bed. 
I may report later. 
Good runs to you all. Everyone stay out of jail. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile">

Good morning. Rest day here. Taking the dog to his "dog resort" in a few minutes, then heading out with the family to our own mountain resort, a.k.a. vacation. Can't wait to get out of town, it's been a while! 
My legs are itching to run today, how strange! But I have to rest them since Sunday is my running day and I'm running an even longer route than normal, as well as an unfamiliar route in the mountains. 
Have a great weekend, all! And good runs to everyone!

Jill · Aug 11, 2007

oh geeze! When did I become a 5K Runner?

keriksen · Aug 11, 2007

Good morning, Scratch, Brandy, Jill, and all the sleepyheads still in bed or on their runs. 
Nice new distance PB, Scratch. You're going to kick butt in Philly 
Have a good run, Brandy. Errr...I'll try to stay out of jail. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> 
Have a fun and safe trip Jill! (you become a 5K runner a 60 posts, I think) 
I had a dream last night that we were all posting our batting averages as well as out mileage. Voo was second only to Rod Carew. Pretty good company, there. 
I'm about to head up to the river for 12 w/cruise intervals. Should be fun. 
I'm off....

Ailarie · Aug 11, 2007

Hi everyone! 
Still no running for me, as I'm continuing my "benched" time. However, I am very psyched about today. I'm meeting up with one of my friends from High School, that I haven't seen in... oh... I'm guessing 12 years or so? We were in cheerleading and colorguard together, and we were pretty tight "back in the day" before "real life" took us in different directions after graduation, and we lost touch with one another. 
I am QUITE the happy camper. Heading out of here in maybe 30-45 minutes, so I guess I'd better finish getting ready! 
I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe weekend! Catch you guys later tonight!

Morning, all!! 
Hope all MN peeps made it through the light/sound show last night--that was crazy! We got hit hard and lost power for several hours; branches everywhere this a.m. I just heard on the news that we had wind gusts of 64 mph and over an inch of rain. 
I'm out the door for 11 in a bit. Hope your "only 13" <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Wink"> went well, Brandy and that you have a great time with your friend, Ailarie! 
I'll check in a bit later.

Hangovers suck. I will run when the electorlytes and fluids in my body are normal.

Korbel · Aug 11, 2007

morning everyone, 
today is a rest day for me from running, tomorrow is about 7-8 miles with hill repeats...one more piece of the training puzzle on the ragnar relay training, then a mini two week taper. Scratch I think I have mentioned this before, but it has been fun to read about your comeback from injury! You are so on your way!! Brandy and Crane 
all the rain/stroms stayed well north of me we did not see a drop. certainly do not want the severe stuff, but sure could use any rain that is out there. Hopefull the rain made it a more comfortable short 13 miler Brandy and an equally short 11 Craney!! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> have a nice Vacay Jill kris batting averages dream? that is funny, how the hell did Carew end up in your dream?... Ali always cool to reconnect with old highschool friends. last month my DW ran into a good friend of mine at a triathlon she was doing. he has become a BQ quality marathoner and we are gonna grab some food at the end of August to talk running! I hope your day is a blast! phdatc hydrate, breathe, hydrate... 
well it is me and the kiddos, gonna run get donuts, stop at the library, get some new movies and then come home to play outside...should be a fun day for us. 
later gang and a happy saturday to those who follow

Howdy dudies, 
I'm going to do a last minute entry into a little 10k race out in Junction City this morning. Better get rolling! 
Good luck racers!

Hey everyone, 
I'm baaaack! And in more ways than one. 
We are back from Cape Cod. We officially had the cottage until this morning, but came back late last night to beat the traffic and to have 2 full days to recover before going back to work. The vacation was pretty good, given that it isn't necessarily my choice of destination and too much family togetherness can get a bit ooogie. Also, our cottage was pretty much a piece of shit. But it was really just a place to sleep when we weren't at the "big" beach house with the rest of the family. 
Oh...but my other news. I ran a little! And I'm talking a very little because I don't have the official OK from the Dr yet. But I went out for walks a few times and threw a few minutes of running here and there with no ill effects. I'm definitely going to return to the Ortho and get his blessing, but I'm pretty darn psyched! 
OK, off to throw the 3rd load of laundry into the washer. Great to "see" you all.

lgreenberg · Aug 11, 2007

Back from 9.5 miles in 1:21. What a beautiful day it is out.

Maples · Aug 11, 2007

Congrats Tiff! 
I am headed to the park to complete c25k week 8. Random note, I did change cell phone companies yesterday. Not much else going on. I might go see Rush Hour 3 this afternoon. Other than that I will see how the day progresses.

runningINnyc · Aug 11, 2007

Back from a gorgeous 15 miler this morning! The weather could not be better and the company was much appreciated as well. Hooked up with the first of the long training runs that the NYRRs put on here. It's cool b/c they have pace groups and water + gatorade along the course. I ran most of it chatting w/a real nice guy named Nate. He's returning to the marathon after a decade but is a big TRI guy so it was fun to hear more about that fun stuff. Anywho, legs were feeling pretty darn good until the very end and they started bark and LOUD. I walked home from the finish and plan to roll them puppies out good + get in to get a massage, stat! 
Have fun w/your HS buddy Ailaire! 
Great avatar pic Jill and relax-it-up in the mtns. 
Good luck racing Duckie & PC ...anyone else? 
CONGRATULATIONS Tiff!!!! And welcome home Diane ...I'm hoping you tossed that tooth out into the water off the Cape <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Wink">

katholeenie · Aug 11, 2007

Hi! 
What a difference 15* makes. Lovely run this morning. Even Gus could come for part of it. 
I've got 2 ready and more than willing. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> (Neutral territory would probably be a good thing though.) Thea - I thought I Want Candy was Bow Wow Wow. Or is theirs a remake? Weekend plans - My parents should be arriving in, oh crap. 15 minutes or so. I still need to shower. Anyway. Dadoleenie is helping Dh put up crown molding in our foyer. While they do that Momoleenie and I are going to a pot sale at a friend's house. Clay pot, not herb pot. Depending how long the crown molding takes, I might rope Momoleenie into helping me with a few other projects around the house. heh. Tomorrow? Long run, and then probably try to make progress on my 500 projects.

maccabeth · Aug 11, 2007

COngratulations Tiff!! See? What did I say about the luck? <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> 
Now, go out and get drunk to celebrate! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">
