<p>Looks like everyone is busy scoring points out there, but not a lot of activity on the boards.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I walked 2 miles today, ran 5.5, and maxed out my Alternate Workout points at 12 with a 1 hour and 15 minute workout early this morning. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>42 points for Team 1.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That's the ticket.</p>
<p>Shoveled 12 inches of the densest wettest snow we have had this season for 6 hours. And I'm not done yet.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>0 points for Team 3.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>aww, that's just sad TechTee <span><img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif" style="width:15px;height:15px;"></span> ....i've been sitting on my ass all day and I got 0 points for that also. I wish you snowbound folks could get a little something for all that manual labor - especially if it's the amount of snow that is preventing you from running.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>17 points for a recovery run today. Not in last place anymore.</p>
<p>I lived my whole life in Rhode Island until two years ago.</p>
<p>I feel and know your pain. Go easy with the shoveling!</p>

<br><br><p>I like your version of 0 points better.</p>

<p>Just did another hour. Still have about 10 feet of my driveway to go, but I'm going to wait until Saturday (I live on a corner, have two entrances to my driveway). I'm sure Randmart has the same issue, he only lives about 10 miles away from me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But, come Tuesday into Wednesday, we might be able to do it all over again! Yee-effing-ha! And it's still January. We got another month to go! Mild winter my ass.</p>

<p>Sidewalk clean its full width; plumb straight walls ... STEEL shovel, probably an ASH handle</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Taught me to shovel "switch" [to use a skateboarding term] ... super-important strategy to avoid injury</p>
<p> </p>
<p>0 points for shovelling [which I find kinda Zen]</p>
<p>6 points for half an hour of Self-Realignment</p>

My favorite shovel finally broke last year. Haven't replaced it yet. I hate the one I have now.</p>
