Adding another 10 miles. Commuting in the rain wasn't bad. It was kind of pleasant but it sure was muddy when I got there. That's 204 out of 400. I'm over half way. :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
Terrific job, Dean! I know you will make it. Is your commute 10 miles round trip? Or are there extra play miles in there? Ohhhh, to work that close to home.
Chris
Hey Chris, The commute is 5 miles each way. It's not a bad commute but this morning the wind picked up 5 minutes after I left work and the rain was coming down so hard it hurt when it hit you in the face. I was about 1 mile from home before it let up. Thank goodness it let up then. That's where my big hill starts so I was glad the wind died down before I died going up the hill. :laugh: :laugh:0 -
4/16 - FULL slacker-quality REST DAY. My body absolutely demanded it from me and I had no choice but to oblige.
4/17 - 1.4 lunch walk, 3.5 treadmill run/walk, MTD 115.0
ALMOST to my goal!! :happy:
Dave
Hey Dave, You need a rest day every once in a while to help your body recover. I take a rest day with light biking about once a month. Then I can come back with all the stress healed and hammer it. You are doing so well and pushing so hard that I think that was a smart move.
Thanks again for all the work you do on the group page and the spreadsheet. You really do make a difference for everyone on here. It wouldn't be the same without you.
Thanks again Dave,
Dean
P.S. - Where's the picture of the new bike?

The gym closed down till next Tuesday for the Easter holiday :mad::noway::explode:
I admit Easter is a big deal for us greeks and the folks working at the gym deserve their vacation, but 4 days?? 'm sure they could haev kept the stupid thing open for 2 of these days with minimum personnel :ohwell:
Dinos - Seriously? Four days? Wow! I could see one, two tops, but four? I guess you guys really do take Easter seriously. Well here is hoping for some nice weather so you can get your exercise in outside. :drinker: :drinker:

Between a breakup and a foot pain that I think might be caused by my current shoes, I've been doing very little running lately. Hoping to get a different pair this weekend and see how my foot feels using a different pair.
4/17: 1 mile
To go: 18 miles
Total: 12 miles
Trisha - Sorry about the shoes. There is nothing quite like foot pain and poorly fitting shoes can really make that worse. Make sure you ease into the new pair so you don't make the injury worse.
Oh, and don't forget, bad boyfriends and bad shoes both deserve a trip to the trashcan. Sorry about the break up but you seems to have your act together so his loss. I'm just assuming that was the break up. I know what assuming does but took the chance. :laugh: :laugh:0 -

Not too much to update since most of the posts are from Dean. Was someone working the night shift last night and had a little time on his hands? Just kidding. You know we love you and all the cheer leading you do around here.

What a day! I'm 'babysitting' a 4 months puppy for the next few days! I feel like I have kids again but what a heart breaker!!!! It's too cute for how its own dang good!! If I didn't already have a dog, cats, horses, hens & rabbits, I would seriously think about keeping it!!
So.... I walked 7 miles today while working outside & walking/running after/with/without/over/beside/in front/behind the pup.:laugh:
