Hi team! Hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend! I had been in DL up until Thursday with very little Internet connectivity. The WiFi in my hotel was crap and there was NOTHING at LAX! I don't need to be connected 24/7, especially on vacation but having access to do an update now and then would have been nice. Oh well.
Lynn - It was great spending time with you and Scott (and the whole gang) last week! Thanks so much for the koek sister recipe! I'm going to print it out and put it on my to make list! Sorry to hear about the cold
I heard a few people caught some kind of bug - it seems to happen after a vacation. Hope you're feeling better soon! Where are you off to now?
Rick - Congrats on your race! Can't wait to read the RR! And congrats to Ryan on his amazing 5K time! Talk about speedy!
Kim - Thought it was crummy that Run Disney was only giving out stuff to people signing up for the Princess Half. Even if you signed up for Goofy, they were only giving out a reusable shopping bag *pfftt* Give me a heads up when you're going to sign up for the 5K! I'm still thinking it over - I'm not sure whether I can do the three early mornings in a row
Tandy - How are your classes going?
Robbie - If you didn't want to go for a full day at the parks, you could go to DTD, play a round mini golf, drinks by the pool, watch the animals at AKL - in which case, you could eat at Boma instead. I think I have dinner plans that evening otherwise I would love to go to 'Ohana!
WTG on your 23 miler and all the mileage you've put in!
Tom -
If you have any races you'd like to add to the team calendar, just let me know! How are you liking your new Garmin? I need to get mine replaced - actually it's just the battery but it's going to cost me about $100 to do that because I have to send out the watch. I figured if I'm spending $100, I might as well get something new.
Dave - Good luck at the senior games! Your WDW is coming up! You must be excited
Elizabeth - How's your back feeling? Are you feeling good about ToT?
AFM - I came, I saw and I ran DL. I still prefer WDW - it's a different atmosphere that's for sure. I'm hoping to get my RR up sometime this week. Glad to have gotten my C2C
I had a blast hanging out with old friends and meeting new ones. Best part was that I only gained 0.2lbs during the trip. That was including one day where I had a mint chocolate chip sundae for dinner LOL (shhhh!!). But anyway, it's back to clean(ish) eating, gym workouts and training for MCM. I'm hoping I can drop another few pounds by then. Fingers crossed!
This weekend, I didn't get a chance to go running. I ended up going to see a couple of film screenings at TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival). These are just the afternoon screenings - they're not the ones that the stars go to. Those tickets are about $40 each and usually mobbed! I ran into my friend Shane today who was in line for the same film. He let me join him in line which was a good thing since the lineup for the theatre was already down the street and around the block. LOL I told him I was use to it because of Disney
Have a great night everyone!
Glad to have him though as he is a great role model for the girls and he dotes on them. Re my training: No runs since Friday as I was visiting family in the NC and Virginia mountains. Loved the cooler temps there because it is still in the 80s here. I have a six mile run this morning.
