WTG Team C! We're in a groove now! <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif">

 

[Alex]

Well guys I'll be at a XC camp until Wednesday so don't worry I'll still be getting out there...maybe not quite as long, but I need a cutback week anyways. I'll have a huge lump sum then though. Keep it up!

 

[diablita]

Have a GREAT time, Alex! We'll miss you.<br><br>
And I already racked up a nice chunk of points running this morning, but I'm not going to post until later in the hopes it will spur me on to score more.

 

[Alex]

Go DIABLITA!!! Keep it up team!

 

[Alex]

Way to go joplus - 72 points! The Floridians are definitely carrying this team. <img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif">

 

[JackDuggan]

man, we are doing great!<br><br>
thank goodness for my TM, would not have reached my target for today without it - the heat was killer<br><br><br>
this is all great fun - thanks to you all

 

[Nettie]

Yeah, we have definitely picked it up. I had to resort to the treadmill and could not possibly stay on it any longer, so about a mile less today than planned. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif">

 

[diablita]

Nettie, sometimes when I'm dreading a dreadmill run, I'll do several miles of walk .2, run .8. I don't like to do this outside (nothing against the technique, just don't like it) but on the TM it's a way to break up the monotony. I find I can put in several extra miles this way. Othertimes I'll alter the speeds and/or incline. Variety helps!<br><br>
But either way, good job getting it in!

 

[Nettie]

Um, so I think somehow I sprained my ankle. While I was walking yesterday, it just suddenly started hurting and today it was okay at first, but a quarter mile into my run, it just became to uncomfortable. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif"> I can't believe this.

 

[diablita]

oh no! Get it checked out, pronto.

 

[fatmantrying]

That sucks! Don't get that hero thing going, Nettie. Don't run on it till it quits hurting.

 

[Nettie]

Sigh, yeah, I won't be running. I have no insurance, so getting it checked isn't really an option. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif"><br><br>
I've got my aircast on. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif">

 

[diablita]

Sorry Nettie. I walked two extra miles on my workout today on your behalf.<br>
I'm stuck in the meetingfromhell tomorrow all day, but on Thursday will try to put in a few extra points for you again.<br><br>
Feel better!

 

[Nettie]

Thanks diablita! Something in my ankle went click and now it feels a lot better, but I'm still going to stay off of running for a few more days.

 

[JackDuggan]

that is great news Nettie. Be sure not to rush it though. Even if you feel you are ready in a few days, just do a couple of slow miles at first.

 

[Nettie]

Yeah, thanks for the reminder to not act like a doof and end up making things worse. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif"><img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"><br><br>
Today, I haven't had any discomfort at all yet, but I haven't tried walking very "far" yet, so we'll see.

 

[Alex]

You guys kick ass! We're in 3rd now and I just added a nice large sum, highest mileage ever in 5 days. 2-a-days at running camp with recvery runs being my normal pace and I'm sorry to say I'm taking tomorrow off. Maybe Saturday if my calves don't loosen up.<br><br>
Keep it up team!!!

 

[fatmantrying]

Sounds like your having fun, Alex!<br><br>
Great job!

 

[Nettie]

Yeah, thanks for keeping up alive team! My ankle has stopped feeling funky and I will be run/walking a race with a girl that just started running and a girl with a broken toe on Saturday (so I get the bonus points).
