Kira: OOOOH, you're going to DL Paris. How cool. And I'll bet you can deduct that as a work expense, huh? I'm sure all the families at your school will miss you, but I know your travel business is where your heart is. (I love the idea of a running cruise, btw.) How cool is it to be a travel agent?! Great job getting back in the groove. I think the story of your DD caring for other children at the gym is adorable.
Tricia: Your tattoos sound cool, especially the tribal cats. (Okay, I confess I don't know what those are, which is why they sound cool.) And your cats love laptops, too? One of mine likes mine, the other likes DOOD's. Strange, huh?
Brandie: What a very cool position to be in--and of course you have to buy the new clothes, as it helps you serve your customers better. (I think you deserve them for free, though.) And you live in FL. I'm very, very jealous right now. I didn't know you were a triathlete, as well. Very cool. And good luck with Eggs and Ears.
Lily: I assume you and Frank are experiencing rain today, too. Please tell me it's light and not headed my way? I'm sorry to hear you're struggling, but remember every bit counts!
Racey Tracy: Woo hoo on the negative splits. Those last couple of miles--Wow! Your Saturday race is going to go well, from these indications. I'm pulling for a PR for you. About your cake. Yeah, thanks for confirming it was delicious.
Mel: The fact that you designed your own tat makes it all the more special, don't you think? People are going to want to copy your design, too.
Aloha Jeff: Are you sure you're not a sadist, what with posting all the pics?
Then I must be a masochist for looking?
Frank: I like the idea of doing a race for each place I travel, especially since the focus isn't on long distances necessarily. I might adopt that. Great idea.
Oh, and I just have to say, Manchester U/Fulham? 
TM Tracy: Ahhh, rolling hills. Or as I like to call them, the nemesis. So, the TM hill work? More challenging? Better route? Part of your planned gym time? P.S. Fartlek.
Maura: Sounds like you were having quite the work day yesterday. Remember, I have a not-so-secret desire to be a super-assassin. Because I have fantasies that I'd look good in black leather. How was the chocolate? Better than the sneezing, I'll bet. Is the sneezing because of the chlorine?
Laurel: Ouch on the black toenail and welcome to the club. (Not a club I ever aspired to join, or you I'll bet, but a club nonetheless.) Are you thinking about shifting shoes. Or socks, at least? WTG on the 9 miles, btw!
Christa: You're a mighty strong woman to keep up the "run until you feel like you want to boot" speedwork. Not that I ever doubted it. You, Maura, and TM Tracy apparently. Do you have a tri coming up that you're training for? Just wondering because of the bike trainer comment. I have to say that if anything would make the DM or trainer better, episodes of The Office might be it. Or Arrested Development.
As for me: I've done nothing resembling exercise today, as I've been waiting for the rain to stop to go out for my run. It hasn't.
But yesterday was my rest day, and I'm itching to go out. So it look it'll be a late afternoon/after work run in the rain. Better load "Singin' in the Rain" onto the iPod. Then the next question is, what is the appropriate reward for a rainy run? Because as you all know, I hate running in the rain.

It may not be good to try and do a LR at a pace that is 2 minutes faster than your normal pace....if I read your post right...I may not have. Do speedwork or shorter runs to increase speed. I am also talking to myself in this b/c I ALWAYS break this rule.
I explain that I have been swimming.
