5 slooow recovery miles with Tory. Wow the humidity returned to the Cape, I was drenched! My glasses kept fogged the whole way! We're leaving tomorrow heading to VA then NC on Sunday. So I guess it's like going from the pot of water into the firy heat. I'ts been a great week here in MA. Sox-Sox double double header header today today.<br><br>

I had such a great run this morning that I'm practically giddy! I did a whopping 30 minutes with no walking - it amounted to about 3 miles running. I came home with a grand total of 4.3 miles, due to the warmup and cooldown walking.<br><br>
This is a big deal for me because it's the most straight running I've done since I hurt my hip at the end of April. I also wore my newer shoes and that took care of the pain under my big toe. (Although I think taking the past 4 days off to let the bruise heal helped).<br><br>
Tomwhite, what's with the rock lugging? Please explain. I think I get that they're fossils, but what do you do with them?

 

[Tamster]

Good Morning boomers . . . . err, I guess we aren't called boomers over here eh? good morning Mastermeisters!<br><br>
Pink: nice recovery run!<br><br>
Steve (Perch): have a good trip. Your humidity sounds terrible! I've become such a west coast wussy when it comes to humidity. (grew up in MN, so was used to humidity)<br><br>
Kevin: nice 10 miles today at a good speed. My plan tomorrow is a 10 mile run, albeit slower than that. Probably more like a 9.5 min/mile pace.<br><br>
Tom: you guys just aren't getting a break from those high temps are ya? does it cool down much at night?<br><br>
Millbot: nice run and nice BF run. Have you been running BF long?<br><br>
Pie: such a creative writer you are! congratulations on having your description chosen for our forum. Never mind it was the only idea submitted. I guess it's like winning 1st AG when you are the only one in your AG huh? <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"><br><br>
Linda: congratulations again on a nice run last night. I'm so glad to hear of the progress you are making.<br><br>
Marie: YAY!!!<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/hello2.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="hello1"> on your 30 min run. That's FANTASTIC!!<br><br>
I'll get in a 3.5 or 4 mile run on the TM at lunchtime and then am planning a 10 mile run tomorrow a.m.<br>
speaking of pie . . . . I love caramel apple pie and now that apples will be ready to pick off my tree in late September, I can't wait to make a few.<br>
speaking of ice cream(since it goes with pie) . . . I made up a divine homemade ice cream last night. I made vanilla ice cream and then added in some maraschino cherry juice, chopped up maraschino's, chopped up choc chips and then as I was adding the ice cream to my freezer container bowl, I layered in dolops of hot fudge. oh my word. . . <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/headbang.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="headbang"><br><br>
I also made up a killer batch of hot salsa the other night - with everything freshly picked right out of my garden - jalapenos, cayenne's, onions, garlic, tomatos, cilantro . . . soooo sooo good. WAY hot, but so good!<br><br>
Have a good day all!

Tomwhite, I went out and watered my back garden naked this morning, I may have shocked my tree. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"><br><br>
I have been running every day this week, hot and all, and at a pretty good pace. I have an 18 mile run scheduled for Saturday morning, so I plan to take today off.<br><br>
Enjoy the gift all! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile">

 

[choovie]

So how does Ilene's uterus grow stronger every day? I think mine is wearing out.<br><br>
Good news for Rinda and Runinbehind!<br><br>
Tamalina, you are making me so HUNGRY! Stop talking about food...you are killin' me... <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"><br><br>
Rest day for me. aaaahhhhh <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile">

Howdy all,<br><br>
I'm new here.... Used to hang with the 30's crowd but I got old and just couldn't keep up with their multi-pages of posts. This group seems almost as cool and I hear you have pie.... and boobie hugs <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"> so I decided to graduate to the Masters program.<br><br>
My 4 miles this AM made 26 days straight, which is a new experience for me as I used to take at least 1 or 2 rest days a week. However, it still feels good and I'm enjoying the consistency. Tomorrow I've got 15K planned as the long run which I hope to work up to 25K and level off for a while until I start upping again late in the year in preparation for March marathons.<br><br>
Good runs all!!!!<br><br>
Mike

 

[perchcreek]

Welcomer MudPuppy.. nice string of runs. I still take days off, maybe one a week, but often it feels worse than doing an easy run instead.<br>
Runinbehind... that's great. The runs after coming back from an injury always feel the most rewarding, so appreciated. Enjoy the gift!<br><br>
Steve

 

[Tamster]

Almost as cool?? <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/cool.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Cool"> I think the fact that we have pie AND boobie hugs automatically makes us more cool <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/headbang.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="headbang"><br><br>
Welcome ((((o Mike o))))

 

[runinbehind]

Stop it Tammy! I'm gaining weight just reading about your delicious food. You are quite the culinary goddess<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">.

 

[Tamster]

well, tonight we are probably just having a frozen pizza for dinner (but I will bake it first) . . . how's that for putting a kabosh on my culinary goddessness? LOL<br><br>
I went to the gym on my lunch hour, only to arrive and find that they are closed til the 27th for their annual "club scrub". errrrrr. . . So, now I'm on day three of no running. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/sad1.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="sad1"> and it's just too hot out to run outside. I needed today's run to compensate for the ice cream I know I'll have tonight.

 

[Road hawk]

Afternoon Masters<br><br>
Pie IceCream and Salsa. I am now starviving in a big way.<br><br>
My garden cooking this year involves fermenting Dill Pickles in a big plastic Food Bucket. 2 weeks to go.<br><br>
Anyway the weather in MO broke last night with some needed rain and the temp dropped to reasonable levels.<br><br>
So I did 4 miles at lunch in 40:23.<br><br>
Runinbehind excellent story and run I just started continuous runs again too. I know how jazzed you are.<br><br>
Peace

 

[runinbehind]

<b>Road Hawk</b> I think you are pretty close to the town my dad was born in: Leavenworth, KS. Isn't Platte City that little truck stop along I-29 just north of Kansas City? When I go to KC I always get gas at the Quick Trip there.<br><br>
I'm in Omaha, about 2.25 hours north of you.

 

[tomwhite]

.....runnin//........fossilized mud is like Concrete poured into Deep Water.......fantastic abstract shapes,,,,,,it looks very Cool......<br><br>
..........(also I think it's Funny telling how I lugged it out)

 

[runinbehind]

Tammy, you're a study in contradiction...at least as far as the kitchen is concerned. (hee hee)<br><br>
Bummer about the Y. (I seem to remember them doing that every August when I was a member.)

 

[Pie Jones]

Your trees might be in shock, but I think my trees are just melting.
