Right now I think it would take me an hour to do a mile so you're just under 20 mins per thats not bad all things considered, you have time you'll get better

Oh Ed that poor bird looks terrified

Last night averaged 17:40 mile. Still over the time. When I stopped 2 months ago was under the time.

worked a few hours this morning spent time with a former boss for coffee & catch up time day WAS gorgeous decided I would start the walking when I get home



maybe I'll just fire up the old treadmill instead....






















it didn't go well

 

[SunDial]

It has been a light rain all day down here today and quite a bit yesterday. Guess I should have gone out and walked/jogged anyway and gotten used to the rain incase it rains that night.

 

[SunDial]

Maybe I will just

Not exactly cardio but it contains the word

 

[Luvchefmic]

I've been up since 3:30 am starting to feel a little




pass me some of that will you ;-)

 

[spiritsim]

you guys have me busting a gut here.......

 

[franandaj]

Too funny!

I don't have any of that Bacardio, but some tequilisthentics might be in order!

 

[PrincessInOz]

I'm checking in as well. My Dis-time has been abysmal the last month.

this little thread of ours will make you laugh cry ponder life and just have good clean fun at least it does for me a nice escape when life gets hard

Now THAT's a word

I'm checking in as well. My Dis-time has been abysmal the last month.

ahh won't be long now ! you are missed but very busy ...understand that

So I don't want to admit that the Princess 1/2 marathon may be unattainable for me, but today I am thinking it may be Even the slightest bit of rain for a day or unexpectedly turning a certain way & I am practically down on my knees in pain This morning I could hardly get out of bed with a back spasm

It may be easier to accept if it wasn't a non-refundable entry fee I paid It gets me so mad & frustrated I know a lot of us deal with this I'm not feeling sorry for myself just annoyed, the feeling you want your body to do one thing, the brain is willing & your body won't co-operate Of course I haven't kept up with home exercise PT so instead of thinking negatively I maybe better make a plan OK enough of that, the SUN is out today

Damnit ! I just noticed my gold glitter USMC Mom in my signature, that I have had for EIGHT years has disappeared I LOVED that since both DD 1 and DSIL are USMC searched the whole internet and apparently the site is now gone

As they say Laughter is the best medicine

Now THAT's a word

I looked that work up to see if there were anyone had pictures on the net describing that word

ahh won't be long now ! you are missed but very busy ...understand that

That is going to be a fun weekend. the Wishes cruise is an absolute how ever the cookout will probably not happen for me since the run will be that evening

Sorry to hear about the back pain. Know that feeling. It has been a long time (knock on wood).

The princess 1/2 is very doable. I believe you can do it. I did about 2 months of walking to help get the knees feeling better first. It was not fast walking or anything like that. Just normal. Then started to walk for a couple of minutes then lite jog for 10/15 seconds and repeat. I would have some good music or one of the DISunplugged podcasts playing.

I am pretty sure that my friends have put themselves on the standby list. I think they have done this before with another event and ran. I will be up there that weekend with both camera's going.

Damnit ! I just noticed my gold glitter USMC Mom in my signature, that I have had for EIGHT years has disappeared I LOVED that since both DD 1 and DSIL are USMC searched the whole internet and apparently the site is now gone

I see that too. The properties said that it was on photobucket. Could it be something with their/your settings or did you have it direct linked to another website?

 

[Luvchefmic]

Oh I know we were all hoping you would be at the cookout, but considering that's the night of the run it makes sense I didn't sign up for the cruise with the rest of you but I'm sure we'll get together somewhere along the way We HAVE to its rare when this group can be here at the same time Would be great if you could do MNSSHP on Sun Oct 6 with me & PIO & her family you may be beat though by then


I just searched my whole computer files, what a trip down memory lane that was
seeing pictures from decades ago; there's also alot of crappola in there that I need to sit down and delete Do I REALLY need 100's of pictures of Spectromagic or other parades Do I really need a picture of a car I owned in the 1970's
crazy but NO signature USMC Mom, apparently I had it direct from the now gone website ( probably like the vacation countdown tickers are) I surely didn't have the photobucket account 8 years ago so I guess that's it. Will have to find something else as the only one I could find looks lame to me

Thank you so much for saying what you did to me about the Princess 1/2 I truly do hope I can do it, just not feeling too optimistic about that lately When the hell is our rainy season over ? Maybe that will help when I don't feel so horrible so often

How are your parents doing? You know I think of them & you all the time



Thanks Ed for finding another USMC Mom and making my signature much better
