Anaconda: Love your photo.
Time2Lose: Congrats on the upcoming grand baby. How wonderful.
Lisah: Good for you for still doing your races with your knee. I did a couple short ones and just hobbled along. I did not feel bad when I saw this girl running in a seriously looking hinged leg brace. But I give you kudos on your effort.
Vhuber: How awful for you! I am sorry to here all you have been going through. Sure hope you feel better soon. I remember being in the Outer Banks on vacation and my ortho doctor put me on Meloxicam and it felt like my calves were going to split open. It was an allergic reaction. Be careful with those antibiotics.
Dean: Congrats on the new ride. I have heard some nice things in that bike and that you can even swap out tires. How many does this make for you now? Still looking into a fat tire bike if my knee gets better.
K80flec: What a beautiful location to run. Does the name mean anything special?
Janet: Glad you got home to Florida safely.
Nov. 12 and 13: Adding 15 miles. Over did it yesterday and my knee started hurtin in the morning. By the end of the day it had swelled up again. I had to get leaves cleaned up, dig through my compost bin, pep my veggie beds for spring and get my garlic planted before it snowed today. I paid for it big time. On top of it, my new $400 leaf blower started acting up after using it three times. It is back at the shop and hopefully they get it fixed. Tomorrow, I go to the air base to get a military ID so I can go on my hubby’s insurance in January when I hit the big 65. And Thursday, I have my five year colonoscopy....what fun.
TTD: 133 miles

@VHUBER - I don't have any Bonus Miles yet, but when I do, they're yours! :flowerforyou: I know that wasn't the way you would like to make goal, but it'll have to do this month. Anyone else want to send your extra bonus miles after you reach your goal, just say so and Janet and I will pass them along!!

I have been away with my Running Club Running in the Lake District. I had an awesome time. I really enjoyed the fell run. My picture is of the tarn we ran to. It goes by the name of Gurnal Dubs! What a fabulous name.
I'm so jealous! I was there once too many years ago and it's absolutely beautiful. I definitely need to go back.
2.5 treadmill miles.

Sorry I've been MIA but I've been REAL sick. Started last Monday night & up until this morning I 've been running 103/104 temp. I was just trying to take xtra strength Tylenol & cold showere etc . Well I think I'm allergic to the Tylenol because I broke out in welts the size of nickels ALL over my body. Not my face thank goodness! I think it was wherever was getting to much heat. DH took me to clinic & the guy acted like I had leprosy, had blood drawn, & chest xrays that showed just a little fluid. I hadn't been coughing since I had that bad cold a month ago when we were painting the house so I could see where their could show a little but that little was persistent at keeping my temp up. Got a list of meds for rash & lungs. I picked them up on Fri & started. Got home & read the info & side effects. Well I had to quit the antibiotic yesterday cuz the back of my legs were like tightening up to where I needed to be on tippy toes & if I try to straighten the feel like a cramp is gonna happen. This med is known for tendon rupture & swelling so I called for a replacement this morning. As of right now now "my" temp 96.5 is normal but have the residual headache hanging on & my body & legs are limp noodles. I will get miles when my body's going allow it!
Sorry you are feeling so bad. Hope you are better soon. Do we need to donate any miles to you to help you over the line?0 -
1 mile walk after weights at the gym.

Thanks everybody but you don't have to do this!! I was having my own pity party but I'm fine now. Not a whole lot better sick wise but the poor me not going to make goal is. I don't I don't that's all there is to it. In reality its no big deal!! Life will go on.. Thanks again. You guys are the BEST!!1

Thank you clepant , It is so wonderful!
Dave, I know it is heartbreaking for your son and your family. I hope it is not anything he can't heal quickly from. My daughter n law was discharged this past March for injuries, she's better now ..... I guess they have to put them through so much to insure their safety when they get out there on their own, that sometimes their bodies aren't ready for all those maneuvers.
Anaconda, that is an awesome photo!1 -
Nov. 15: It was the dreaded prep day for my colonoscopy this morning. Up at 2 am to do the second step of my prep and at the hospital at 7am. All went well and this time I had a good prep.Thye had to turn me on my back and press on my stomach to get the scope through because of admonimal scare tissue from my prior surgery. But all went well and I am good for another five years.
Adding 10 miles on my x bike because of the rain, sleet and ice. They said no driving but Nothing about stationary biking.
PS My knee swelling is coming back down and it is feeling better. I can almost bend it completely when I walk instead of peg leg like a pirate...lol.
TTD: 150 miles
@vhuber: I know they are not your miles but please let us help if you need them, We want you to keep your streak going. You would do it for us if we needed them. Feel better soon.0 -

@clepant and anyone else who needs a good laugh - Dave Barry wrote this great article on his colonoscopy - I read it in the forums here before I did mine. I had tears in my eyes because it's hysterical.
https://www.miamiherald.com/living/liv-columns-blogs/dave-barry/article1928847.html
or google Dave Barry colonoscopy and it'll show up.
Adding 1.5 miles.

@Vhuber - Nice attitude. Yes it would be nice to keep the streak going but it's better to get healed up and start the streak again next month. Seems like your illness is hanging on. You usually get over things quicker. Hope you heal quickly.0

And that's GOAL for @ANACONDA469! :drinker:
@VHUBER - If you change your mind, let me know. There are lots of people willing to donate. :flowerforyou:
@TIME2LOSEWEIGHTNOW - I'm sorry to hear your Daughter-in-Law is going (or has gone) through the same thing. I hope she's doing okay with it. My son seems okay emotionally, but time will tell. It was too much physically for my all at once. He's really strong and loves a good hard workout, but his knees and bones just weren't ready for the sudden increase in activity. He might've been fine if he could wear tennies all the time, but he also had to run in boots daily as he was a road guard. It's all unfortunate. :-/
Dave0 -
@Dave - I was a road guard when I was in the Air Force. I was lucky enough to be during a time when you could buy better equipment than they issued if you wanted. I paid the $100 for a good pair of boots. It was worth it. The issue boots really give your body a pounding. I'm sorry for what both of you are going through right now. Any chance he could try again with a less physical service like the Air Force or Coast Guard?1

Well, so much for the winter weather advisory. The news channels were talking like it was a frozen version of hurricane Andrew. Instead, we got a sprinkle of rain and the temp went from 27 last night to 42 this morning. I should have ridden my bike.0

... adding a few miles from the last few days! Tracking well against goal so far.
