February 2009 - Walt's Warriors!!

Happy Monday Guys & Girls!!!!!

I managed to get 5 miles in right before the rains came today. I'll post a weekly total mile/time total in a few days.

A bad thing happened yesterday (fortunately not to me, but......). About 1 hour after my ride yesterday, A cyclist got whacked by a stupid frackin' motorcyclist in the exact same spot I was an hour before.

AFIK, the guy was not killed, but was flown to the trauma center in Jacksonville. Witnesses said the motorcycle hit him hard enough to actually break his bike frame in half.

It really frustrates the Holy H*** out of me to see this. I try to go biking on back water country roads with little traffic & there is always at least one moron out there that can hurt or kill cyclists. The motorcyclist DID get cited for reckless driving, but big deal. HE's not the one ion the hospital!

He ONLY got a CITATION?! That's insane... sending someone to the hospital only gets you a citation... goodness... what's this world coming to?

 

[dsnyfan21]

Jim: That's horrible!! Citation - exactly not what the guys needs to get!!!!

Well I am pretty tired this morning. My date was fun enough we stayed out until midnight and I had to get up for work. I woke up this morning to dd with 102 fever. So, I am bringing her to the doctor and I have an appointment this afternoon. I do intend to get my run in this evening and I am hoping after all that I am not too worn out. I want to take my wii out of the box.

Good ot see you Ken!!!! Wow, great way to keep yourself accountable by posting your weight. Hmmm...Maybe I shoudl get the courage to do that.

Jen - Way to go for January!!!!

OK, today will eb my first day back on track. DOn't even know how far I'm supposed to go.

 

[ImMarcik]

I'm frustrated. My dd has the flu and bronchitis and the more the day goes the more congested I feel. So, I think my run is off tonight, but I may just do a little walk on the TM and set up the wii.

The Wii is so much fun. I played it all the time over the summer. You'll enjoy it!

Today I ran 2 miles again, in 22:49. So yea, another improvement! Over a minute less than last time. I think I was speeding though because all the threadmills with TVs were taken, and I just wanted to get off the boring one I was on ASAP!

Hey Warriors,

I did a 4 miler Sunday (which went really really well), skipped yesterday since I felt like crap and started week 2 of C25K today even though I still felt like crap.
I plan another quick C25K run tomorrow and some core/strength.

Tracy: Can't wait to hear how you like the Wii Fit! Where did you order yours from?

(and I am so glad there are some more Team Edward people on the Warriors!)

 

[dsnyfan21]

Hey all my fellow warriors!! (and team Edward Ladies)

Marcie: Sorry your daughter is so sick and that you are now not feeling well. Take a break if your feeling run down. No need to make yourself more sick.

Katie: Wii - hopefully when I get it I'll be saying...wiiiiiiii!!

Amy: Sounds like your getting a good start on your c25k. I only got the Wii, later will get the Wii fit. I found the game console on www.lowestdeal.com

I did a nice 4 miles tonight at the park near work. Start temp was 68, end temp was 60. WIll be cooling down here in South Florida again the next two days. I think temps in the morning will be around 45.
TIme for the walk plus warm up and cool down was 1hour 7 min.

Don't push too much if you're not feeling well. Work to stay healthy.

I'm actually moving and have reportable information besides snow shoveling! There has been that too though. Kirby dog and I have been walking and I finally got to play Wii fit. I must say my Mii is not a fav thing. It puffed out and tells me I am obese. Ugh. It did say though that my exercise age was 50. I'll take that. It's got me 9 years younger!

Hey All!

Yesterday = 60 minutes of strength only
Today = 10 mile bike, 2.5 mile run, strength, core for 1:40

I Love being a Warrior! It is so wonderful to be part of this team!

Tracey,

Sunday run.

My Garmin pegged me at 10 miles even, 1:40:22. I had a couple of walk breaks, to take in the view of the ocean off Diamond Head.

Sure, Jeff...rub it in! I had a beautiful view of the SNOW! (But in the warmer months I also run at the ocean and nothing beats it! )

Today I drove over to the windward side to run with Guru Les near his home. First time in 2 years running with him, I went to his neighborhood.

8 miles 1 hour 17 minutes. 4 miles downhill outward bound, 4 miles uphill on the return.

Thanks! I guess I am taking a break. Y'all are right, I don't want to get sicker. I opened the box to the wii last night but didn't get it hooked up. I ended up going to bed early.

 

[wtpclc]

Yay!!! I am no longer a slug. Hard of rme to be here when I wasn't working out.

I did 50 min (4.6 mi) on the indoor track last night and 16 min on teh wii fit. LOVE it!!! The yoga is really good. Love teh logging and teh fact that you can add your other workout time. Really impressed.

Ugh, wanted to catch up, but work calls. WIll be back.

 

[wtpclc]

Her's how I found my wii fit

Kate - Thought of you whil edoing it.

Housekeeping Issue:

Please PM Tracy (dsnyfan21) with your e-mail if yuo want to post to this spreadsheet.

http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=p8PPZEl_DDQVrcFsXQKJmcg

Also please also let us know if you will be posting your totals for the month or if you need one of us to do your totals. I haev no porblem doing it, just don't want to end up tracking someone all month adn see that I didn't really need to. Did I mention that I am the world's laziest marathon runner?

 

[MiaBanda]

I will be posting as I go, but no need to track me. I will post my end of month mileage too. I have it on a spreadsheet at home anyway.

I missed my run last night, but will be back at it tonight. Will be back to post later...

Thanks Carrie and Tracy!

 

[MiaBanda]

Did anyone else notice that on the thread title we are the "Warrios"?? Is that a cross between a warrior and a cheerio???

Sorry...just struck me as funny. Back to work I go...

 

[Mooshu]

LOL ~ Michelle you're too funny!

Yesterday I had a stomach virus going on..maybe something I ate. So nothing to report for me.

Today - I slugged out 2 miles on the treadmill, some core work & weights. I was going to try to run more on the treadmill, but after yesterday I didn't have much energy.

I'll try to figure out how to post my weekly miles & time. If not I'll report back to you and PM Tracy.

Have a great day everyone!
