    I have my very first "night" race (5K) tonight at 8:30 p.m. I actually have never ran in the evening hours so this will be interesting and we will all be "glowing in the dark" on the run!! :):)

    Love running in the evening! My favourite time to run.

    Congratulations @gam3rguy !

    @Beeps2011 , good luck with the calorie cutting. I know you will do it!

    Got a couple of runs in this weekend. 7.5 miles on Saturday and 15 miles on Sunday. Should be tapering, but am still trying to get my long runs in. One more to go.....if I survive!

    @djproulx nice work on the ironman. I ran a marathon once (when much younger) and was so ruined I didn't run again for 3 years. :) I can't imagine doing it after a 180km bike and a 3.8km swim. That is amazing.

    @3furballs Being able to do a pistol is on my goals list. I have the getting down part down....its just the getting back up. I mentioned it to my oldest daugher (12) a month or so ago that this was one of my goals and she promptly cranked a few out on each leg. I had to send her to bed without supper :).

    Thinking I might need to break out my yoga DVD. My flexibility seems to be on the decline.

    @tojo_73 , I would have done the same and sent get to bed! I can do them with the resistance band around the top of the heavy bag, out helps with balance and pulling up again. One of my major milestones when I could get my butt to the ground and get back up again!

    @tojo_73 - Timberman is a short course race of 70.3 miles(HIM distance), so the run leg is only 13.1 miles. Agree the full marathon run is a grind.

    @sdereski - When and where is your race??

    Focus pad class tonight. It's a variation on our kickboxing class, really loving it. Though my shoulders are killing!

    @Djproulx I think short should be written with quotations. Even half distance iron man sounds crazy to me!

    @gam3rguy So today is your Beast day!

    Day 2 of recovery,

    Strength: P90X: core Synergistic ok, I really do not feel like this workout should be placed in recovery week! it was tougher than a normal day workout! all that variety of push ups are really insane! but anyway it's done!

    Cardio: evening walk with my young man and puppy
