<p>Loopy- hope the knee heals up fast</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm not sure what I'm gonna do today. Kinda feel like being lazy, but I know I really will not want to run tomorrow. I guess I'll just go out for a run and see where it takes me.</p>

<p>loopy--what's up with the knee?</p>
<p>BBS--get out there and see where your legs take you.</p>
<p>Jill--have you posted a photo of the pup?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fishbowl for me. Stupid tired, so really should have gone for a rest day. Got there and there was Christmas music blaring. Really bad Christmas music. The longer I swam the more pissed off I got, so I cut it to 2000m.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Need a sanity check here. Okay, besides the fact that I'm already crazy... There's a HM on 12/5. Weather should be perfect and based on training, I think I could PR. Since my full on 10/24 I've cut back on running, but still knocked out some double digit runs. Then I did the 3-day and have had trouble recovering. This past weekend, I did 9 @8:37 and most certainly had more in the tank. Cut it short because I didn't have water. Tomorrow is a rest day (baking all day). Thursday I'll get out early for a short trot. What should I shoot for over the weekend given that my race will be the following weekend?</p>

Morning. 18 degrees, no power. Oh boy. Thank god for my iPhone. Doc said iron and thyroid result look good. Now says it's adrenal fatigue whatever that means. Said it explains why I crash every time I start back running. We'll see! Will respond to others when powers back and I hav my computer.

<p>I was too lazy to get up and run outside this morning. 4boysmom stole my motivation. Now planning on a late morning 5'er on the TM. A thrilling time is expected. </p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Dan </strong>- Sounds lovely! Stay warm.</p>
<p><strong>kfuller</strong> - Yikes! Keep that weather to yourself!</p>
<p><strong>4boysmom</strong> - I hate the way that Christmas starts in November. I mean at least wait until December! Anyway, I'd do 10 miles with the last 2-3 @ HM pace. It likely depends on your energy level.</p>
<p><strong>Jill</strong> - how are those quads?</p>
<p><strong>BBS</strong> - gotta keep those legs moving!</p>
<p><strong>Loopy</strong> - I was expecting a 5'er with your sore knee. Oh well, lost that bet.</p>

<p>Dan- If it is not one thing it is another. Hopefully you can get this thing fixed and be back on the road to feeling great.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You know it is cold when you go to the store with your kids and one of them says " BRRRRRRRR!!!!". I think we have about a 20 mph steady wind and it is suppose to be 30-60 mph sustained winds and gusts this afternoon when the storm moves in. Just in time for the commute this afternoon. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have a great morning everyone.</p>

<p>Mornin' all...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm feeling pretty tired after my "rest" day yesterday. Finally tumbled into bed at 12:30 am, back up at 7. But I'm hoping today's run will help to clear my head. I'm planning on about 6-7 near work. It is warm, 60s right now, but may be cooler & raining by the time I get out. I'm ready either way. No doubt I will crash hard this evening.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dan - hope that power comes back on soon. That sounds miserable.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>kevin - seems you are in for quite a winter. Nice job on the 5</p>
<p> </p>
<p>loopy - well done on the foggy 10</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BBS - your mojo is hiding in your shoes. Put them on. The rest will take care of itself. <span><img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif"></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>Jill - enjoy the well deserved recovery time</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>4bm - is there any <em>good</em> Christmas music to swim to?</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>RA - hopefully you've got something better than bad Xmas music to keep you going on the TM later.</span></p>

<p>Greetings all!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>First time by in a long time. Doing fine and running some. 3.1 miles the last 2 mornings in about 50 degree weather. Since they dumped the running log, I've gone to paper and just don't think about this site as much.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>At any rate, glad to see all are well or mostly well. Happy Thanksgiving if i don't pop back in for a bit.</p>

<p>Lunchtime 5'er done. Now back to pretending to work.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Hawk</strong> - Have a good run. Looks like you have the weather we had yesterday. No Christmas musak on my iPOD... I switch between two playlists... one rock the other trance (melodic electronic bleeping sounds). It was a trance day today.</p>
<p><strong>Brown</strong> - I was just thinking "where's Brown?" and up you pop like a genie. Welcome back. I, and many others, use the log at runningahead.com.</p>

<p>Back from the middayer, 6.1 miles total...was feeling pretty good today for a recovering marathoner. I started out at 8:12 pace, then dropped it to 7:40s, 7:30s, then 7-teens for the next 3 before kicking it in at 6:25 pace. I was working on improving my gait and striking more on the midfoot; I don't know if that had anything to do with today's pace.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Loving today's weather...63, cloudy. A touch humid but not too much so I can't even complain about that. Yes, some of us actually enjoy mild weather. Especially in late November.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Brown - welcome back, and try the online running log at Running Ahead. It's pretty good.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now back at work, doing what RA is doing. <span><img alt="rolleyes.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/rolleyes.gif"></span></p>
