<p>Good morning!</p>
<p>Nice to see some people back here!</p>
<p>Sisu, I dropped to the half also due to my hips bothering me. I would suggest emaoling the RD asap to get into the half. ( I could use a pacer at the half-just sayin'.) She emailed me back and asked if I still wanted the jacket for the full or the tee shirt for the half. I'm keeping the jacket.</p>
<p>I've been doing some light running, I think I need a bit of recovery before the half and then I'll take it easy for a while to see if I can correct this pain situation.</p>
<p>Have a great day!</p>

<p>Good morning!<br><br>
Hey Suds....hope the half goes well and you are able to get those hips feeling better!! Sorry about the full..that stinks! Damn right to keep the jacket!! You trained for it!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Well why is it so EASY to fall off the wagon but  so HARD to get back on!  Everyday I wake up and say I am going to run today and by the evening I have come up with some excuse why tonight wont work!   Mostly I am just pissed at myself for being so lazy this summer and dont want to run now  because I know how much it will suck when I get back out there and cant run more then 3 miles and feel like a slow fat slug while I am running!! Need some serious motivation right now! Need to find a fall race and register maybe??  too late for the half I wanted to run but maybe a 10k in Oct would be ok??!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hope everyone gets some good runs in and has a great day!! </p>

<p>Hi SB! Getting back out there is tough, but signing up for a race is the best motivation! Go for the 10k!</p>

<p>Hi all!  Happy hump day!  I ran an easy 3.5 this morning, and I'm hoping to get another short run in this evening after work.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Suds-I'm sorry you are struggling with the hip pain.  Hopefully you'll feel ok for the half.  It's nice that the RD let you have the jacket anyway.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Staci-Just get out there and do it!!!  It's going to make you crazy until you do.  Yes, it might suck a little at first, but you will feel so much better after!! </p>

<p>You guys are right!! There are 2 races I am interested in..one is a 10k the same day/race as the half I wanted to do but I already bought ticks for a concert out of town the night before and am not sure if we will stay over or not...but then found a 15k the end of Oct that looks good! Thinking that one would be better....a little longer distance then I was thinking  but have some more time!! Will register tonight!</p>

<p>Hi Fer! Nice job getting the miles in!</p>
<p>Sb, the 15k sounds like just the right fit!</p>

<p>Afternoon my running friends.  Just working here but I will be able to workout tonight so that is good.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Staci adding a race to the schedule will help with the motivation.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Paul you can run a half backwards.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fer I will see you at the gym.</p>
