Actually, I see Oberon21 in this quote... maybe older quotes before I changed don't change?
Ah maybe. I thought they were new posts because your name/avatar was oberon
I meant older as in seconds or days before I changed??
You are Oberon WAY back in 1034
I haven't come across any quotes tho.
And yay for running. You can do 7-10 miles for me. lol. If I were allowed, today is my 10 miler day. I'll have to settle for walking a few miles on the slow, uninclined treadmill (I'm allowed that and slow swimming as per my dr. )
I confess to being done one leg warmer that I made WAY too big so its a thigh high and is way bulky, but should be warm. Took me a week, Even wove in my ends. Now I have to start the second one. I think its awesome. If I figure out how to post pics I will.
I'm nursing a foot injury, plantar fasciitis that won't go away. I used to run about 25-30 miles a week, now I don't run at all. I have filled the cardio void with swimming, hitting the heavy bag, spinning, and HIIT, and of course, eating less to remain in maintenance (which is unfortunate)! But nothing takes the place of running, it was basically my church and psychiatrist's couch. I have been doing rehab and wearing shoe inserts, and have a follow up with a podiatrist in early March, so hopefully I will be back in time for spring.
no HIIT, no heavy bags, I can't even bend and tie my sons skates.
I was up to 25 miles a week, as well as 10+ miles of walking as well (I live in a tiny town, so I don't drive anywhere) And so this inactivity thing just SUCKS.
I'm very scared that since I can't be as active as I was I'm going to regain all the weight I lost plus friends. Or I'm going to lose muscle tone, and be skinny flabby
Hi Myles! Are you north, south, east or west of Winterpeg? I'm in northwestern Ontario myself.
I'm sorry for your forced inactivity.
Hi Glinda, I'm just south of the Winterpeg, all my activities are in the city actually.
I'm a bit of a weirdo and when I hear Northwestern Ontario my mind goes to Atikoken. Am I close? lol.
and @Oberon21 nope, its a late 1970s style, but not vivid, I need to figure out how to get the pics on my phone on to here. (Finger crossed that worked)
Reminds me of R2D2.
Is that on purpose?
That is what I thought!0 -

I had a bad case in 2014. I got the injection in my foot, did a TON of stretching and wear inserts in my shoes and haven't had any problems since. I run anywhere between 0-50 miles per week. LOL
I signed up for three races today, including the Tucson marathon. I'm still just building endurance and mileage slowly. Two miles on a 2.5% incline today. I am excited. I also finally told SO that I'm doing it. He is fully on board as consultant and coach. Yay!!! First up, a five K next month. A 10 K in March (or early April, I have to look) and I'm looking over some halfs in the summer months. There is one called "bucket of blood" (YIKES).
That's awesome! I was crazy and signed up for five races (two halfs, 1 10K, 2 15K) this spring too and I am so excited and a bit freaked out as I really only started running in, what, October?
Is the "bucket of blood" one themed or something, or is it just terrifying?

Totally post pics! The only sweater I ever fully knitted was huge. I totally made the stitches too loose so the size ended up like 3X what it was supposed to be... I gave it to my sister anyway. It was made with love...even if it was clown sized!
Tammy is doing all the running (rungirl) these days. She'll have to cover your 10 miler (although I am trying again!)
The sweatshirt I made in Home Ec was so hideous! I remember the sewing teacher was so mean in 7th grade & then practically did my whole project in 8th grade.
I wonder whatever happened to my sweatshirt? I'm sure I threw it in the garbage.
We had to do button down shirts. My top buttonholes were horrid. I'm sure it got turned to rags.
I feel lucky - we only did pencil cases and aprons. I still have my apron - it is white with a pattern of tiny alligators wearing running shoes on it.
That sounds like the cutest pattern ever!0 -

Confession: I could not find matching socks today after looking for several minutes. So, I chose to wear boots instead of the flats I had planned on (and my socks don't match).0

Nice!
I'm not sure of the history of the name. It is part of Wild West days in Holbrook AZ.0 -
Oh. Named after a saloon where there were many bloody gunfights.
A town too tough for women and churches.

That is really interesting and I'm glad to hear it's not because they're making you race some horribly difficult course or something
