<p>Some fat dinosaur sat on my mojo Mon and Tues and I didn't run a step and didn't feel guilty about it.....................too much.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But this morning got out for 10 moh sweat humid miles avg 7:52 miles and  one mile well under 7.  Cloudy and overcast with a slight chance of rain Fri.  Send us your rain; we'll take some more.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have a good day.</p>

<p>Hi Gizmo TW and Dino the Dinosaur</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My dad owned a Sinclair Gas Station for quite a few years and that was their mascot</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Off to a massage and I have KS beat as I haven't run since Saturday.   I have killed myself on the eliptical the last 3 days though getting between 70-75 minutes each workout. </p>

 

[ksrunr]

<p>I remember the Sinclair dinosaur!!   Makes me a dinosaur too probably.  </p>

<p>Hi TW, KS and Rip........</p>
<p> </p>
<p>No run for me today, but walked for 43 min on the TM and did some strength stuff.</p>
<p>Have switched to co-worker avoidance mode.  So far, so good. <span><img alt="sad11.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad11.gif"></span></p>

<p>Hi Ks, TW, Rip, & Heme...........I don't think they had Sinclair stations on the west coast, so I'm not familar with their mascot....don't know what a "Swedish Ladder" is either. I guess I've led a sheltered life.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>4 easy miles again.....a little easier today due to better fueling pre run, but still seems harder than it should. Being unable to run the past 5 weeks has made me aware of the fact that some day in the future I won't be able to run at all. I have to figure out how to deal with that. I certainly don't have a handle on it now. I'm beginning to be able to at least, consider riding a bike. So maybe that's a start.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good advice from OM on the co-worker issue Heme, or you can just do what most men do when "listening" to their wives.....Nod in agreement and say "un huh, yeah, you're right" every minute or so, while daydreaming of something else.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And speaking of OM.....How was the relay?? Did you post about it? or at some other place??</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good running to all</p>
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>=========</p>
<p> </p>
<p>22min poolrun</p>
<p> </p>
<p>.........plus 15min on something that LOOKED like a sort of elliptical, but had a straight leg motion and arm ski poles</p>

<p>Hi Masterfuls!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>ks, this is a good time for some chillaxing. You've had quite a run so far this year.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Heme, I hope you can maintain your good vibe. You've worked plenty for this race and there's no reason why it won't go as planned.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have to get back to the monthly massage routine. Today my right side was all messed up. My leg felt weak and achy; lower back tight; abdominals felt like I pulled something. All on the right side. So I decided to take it easy today and take all the time I needed to warm up. After about 4 miles with all systems go I went into tempo mode for 4 more miles. Felt great at the end and there doesn't seem to be any residual effects.  Which is nice.  8:16 pace overall.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Mike</p>

Don't worry, Johnny, I'll write that report up soon enough... un huh, yeah, you're right...</p>
<p> </p>
<p></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Seriously, though, I'm finding I don't have much patience this week to write up a cohesive RR, let alone anything else. Surgery's next Tuesday, and now that I don't have the relay playing interference anymore, I guess I have to deal with how I feel about it all. Doesn't help that when I was at Costco this afternoon, one of the store workers there asked me "so, you think the world's going to end on Saturday??" I just smiled meekly and mumbled that I didn't know. Wouldn't have helped her at all if I were to tell her my first thought at her question: guess that means I won't be having my operation after all!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ugh, can you tell I didn't run today???</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Tomwhite, I was going to say the exercise machine you described sounded a bit like a cross-country ski machine, which I guess is what you have pictured there. At first I thought it was a Nordic Trak, but that doesn't have poles, I believe. What's most important, of course, is if you liked it, and if it liked you. Names, shmames.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>OK, my interview at the LRS is this evening, and now I'm in a quandary as to what to wear. Running clothes? A suit?? Heh, probably neat black jeans tucked into my rubber rain boots will do... especially since it's pouring arks and armadillos out there.... hmm, maybe that woman's question re the end of the world wasn't that far off...</p>

 

[Johnny]

<p>That's understandable Esther, I'm sure you had a great time at the relay....I'll be doing my best sending you positive thoughts, prayers, vibes,........... whatever you'd like on Tuesday.......</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>So that's what that thing is TW, I always thought it was a fancy back scratcher.</p>

 

[ripvanracer]

<p>Hey,   if I make it through saturday, I will have lived through 17 End of the Worlds!!!</p>

 

[tomwhite]

<p>...let's not get carried away rip, check back in with us Saturday.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>======</p>
<p> </p>
<p>...johnny//.....yep, we had those, leather medicine balls, and ALL kinds of 1920's exercise stuff at our Old High School</p>
<p> </p>
<p>we always think WE were the first to discover something</p>
<p>then find out later they already knew about it</p>
<p><a href="http://www.sandowplus.co.uk/Macfadden/macfadden-intro.htm" target="_blank"><span style="color:#810081;">http://www.sandowplus.co.uk/Macfadden/macfadden-intro.htm</span></a><span style="display:none;"> </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>here's one</p>
<p>of the Pioneers of the Fitness Movement,</p>
<p>they had Isometrics,</p>
<p>Indian Club Exercises,</p>
<p>DoorFrame Exercisers,</p>
<p>Kettle Ball exercises</p>
<p> </p>
<p>...even the</p>
<p>''posing'' done</p>
<p>in Mr Universe Contests</p>
<p>was an Exercise System called ''Maxalding'' which is Muscle Isolation Exercises (about 1900)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think</p>
<p>all we did was invent Plastic</p>

 

[ksrunr]

<p>Rip - can you name them all?</p>
<p> </p>

 

[HappyFeat]

<p>Hi, I'm late as usual. Everyone is so chatty!</p>
<p>Wonder what OM ended up wearing to the interview and how that went..</p>
<p>Johnny, why do you say that some day in the future you won't be able to run at all?</p>
<p>Good run for you today Mike - so smart to listen to your body and warm up slowly.</p>
<p>I ran 8 tonight. Thought it would be easier since I took yesterday off; not sure why it wasn't.</p>
<p>Sunday is looming.</p>

<p>Interview went very well, thanks for asking... I wore the black skinny jeans in my black leather boots with the silver buckles, white elbow-sleeve boat-neck top, simple silver hoop earrings, no necklace. Simple, clean lines, no distractions. Not exactly running garb but appropriate for the venue, I believe. I should be hearing back today.</p>

 

[ksrunr]

<p>Wow Rip - did you have a photographic memory or do you have this recorded somewhere?   Heme come race day you'll be fine.  Don't worry about it.  OM - good luck today.</p>
<p> </p>

 

[hally]

<p>OK so I am a day late and I'm nobody anywhere but I just wanted to chime in and say that I had a Dino Dinosaur from Sinclair that I used to play with when I was a kid.</p>
<p>He used to terrorize my marble families that I setup in a wadded up blanket <span><img alt="rolleyes.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/rolleyes.gif"></span></p>
<p><span>There world ended every day when I got bored and went on to something else only to be resurrected again when I felt like playing that game again</span></p>
