<p>Morning Gang -</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Was going to run 7 miles this morning, but there was a light dusting of snow and WC was -13, so decided not to risk injury this close to the marathon.  I'll do some biking at the gym later today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Woot to <strong>Jen</strong> and <strong>Rochey</strong> on those smokin HM times!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>boB</strong> - what's your plan for dinner on Saturday?  Someone recommended an Italian place that looks good, but a bit pricey.  <a href="http://capeo.us/" target="_blank">Capeo.</a>  I'm gonna call and see if they are having any marathon specials and if I would have a problem finding a seat at the bar and just ordering something light around 5:00ish.  Let me know if you are interested, or if you've heard of any other good options.  I want to avoid the pasta feed b/c part of the fun of being in new city, for me, is trying different restaurants.</p>

<p>Morning</p>
<p>3 quick miles yesterday before dinner with relatives in town.  I could not get my butt out of bed this morning for a run at 5 a.m. before work.  Jetting out of town after work - FL here I come!  (and warm weather).  We are visiting Tampa and Orlando :)</p>

<p>Good morning and Happy Friday!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Could the snow. just. stop. PLEASE?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I went to a yoga class after work last night, I really needed it.  My back and legs were just tight and I was ornery.  The yoga practice itself was really good, I got into a 'hurdler' pose I'd never done before.  But then during savasanah, the group waiting outside the room for the next class was hooting, cackling and laughing.  There's a glass door so they could see that our class was in savasanah - deep relaxation, right?  pfft. Really disrespectful. I was supremely annoyed.  The instructor said it was good practice for tuning out those outside distractions.  Yes well, if I wanted to do that I would do my practice at home.  I made the effort to come to the class, putting off dinner for the family, etc.  I thought the instructor should have done something, all it would have taken was for her to open the door and press a finger to her lips "shh".  My body felt better after class but not my mind.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Doesn't look like I'll get a work out in today.  <span><img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif" style="width:15px;height:15px;"></span> But I do get to go to a Happy Hour after work.  <span><img alt="icon_cheers.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/icon_cheers.gif" style="width:24px;height:24px;"></span> I could use an hour of happy.</p>

I have no plans for Saturday.  I also try to avoid the race sponsored pasta dinners.  They aren't nearly as good as a restaurant, and like you, I enjoy trying new restaurants anyway.  But I haven't really thought about it.  I just figured I'd find something once I get there... <br>

<p>Hi all - haven't really posted much on the fitness thread the last couple weeks.  Suffice it to say, I haven't got much fitnessing in since my grandma passed away.  I will endeavor to get back to the routine soon though</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nice and smokin fast HMs, <strong>Rochey & Jen</strong>! </p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Brandy</strong> - congrats to you on the weight loss success!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good to see you <strong>Frankie</strong>!  But, yeah, where are those folks who haven't posted in awhile - I miss seeing them</p>

<p>Yes, nice work on shrinking <strong>Brandy!</strong>  (Did I mention I am supah jealous?)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I did not end up running again last night.  I was dog tired and the boys wanted me to watch a movie with them so I opted up for snuggling with my boys and watching a fun movie.  I slept in until almost 6 am and got out for 15 miles.  My midweek long run was only supposed to be 12, but I am a little behind on my mileage this week and the roads are finally clear, so I decided to go for it.  If it snows all weekend (as it is supposed to), I will have at least gotten some decent miles in.  I was supah slow and I forgot my GU, but I am glad to have the miles in the books. </p>

<p>Does anyone know a real live email to get in touch with <strong>bob</strong> at?  He needs to register for a party thing today or he'll have to pay $20.  And I know he likes avoiding spending money. <span><img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">  If someone knows it, let me know.  Or shoot him an email telling him to check his PM on KR.  thanks!</span></p>

<p>Are you guys calling me cheap?  <span><img alt="cool.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/cool.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>I did get the emails and texts.  Thanks.  But I'm apparently already registered for the party.  I got a 2011 Official Registration Confirmation email from the marathon a couple days ago, and in the email it says that I have an RSVP for the Post Race Party.  I don't specifically remember registering for it, but I must've done it when I registered for the race...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyhoo, I did 40 easy minutes on the TM this evening.  (I guess that's what I was doing when I was getting barraged by all these texts and emails.  <span><img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span> ) </p>

<p>Hey all -- quick fly-by.  Got to the pool for a short, but interval-filled, 1000yds today.  Then I got home and found my new <a href="http://www.sportcount.com/products.php?category=SportCount" target="_blank">sportcount</a> in my mailbox!  Can't wait to try it out!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck tomorrow, <strong>Ailarie</strong>!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Safe travels and enjoy the trip, <strong>Brandy</strong> and <strong>Baggs</strong>! </p>
