Good Morning!

I ran 8 miles today. This is my longest distance run to date.:drinker:

I did not think I would make it. It was 80 degrees and 98% humidity at 8 am.

Enjoy the day! I must go and die now...:bigsmile:

-Kechie.

    Good job, kechie. I think you've earned some well deserved rest. We've had all ballet all weekend and it's not over yet, so I'm contemplating some running time.

    Happy trails to all!

    Kechie~ You are definetely the running goddess of the board!!! :love: WTG!!!! :drinker:

    Mireille - I was thinking about you this morning wondering how the new shoes felt. Glad you liked them.

    I'm being the domestic goddess today, but may try to sneak a few miles in. But...probably not. :bigsmile:

    Enjoy the rest of the day ladies!! :smooched:

    Way to go Kechie! I'm going to lift weights and maybe do 3 miles on the elliptical this morning, but nothing heavy after my long run yesterday. I have to get ready for my daughter's birthday next weekend and Bunco at my house on Wednesday. I was planning on doing some of it yesterday, but my daughter and I went and saw the new Sex in the City movie instead. So now I have lots to do today! Have a good day everyone!

    Yowza Kechie!!

    You are my hero!!!!:love:

    I have been slacking in the running department. These past 2 weeks have been very bad.. very, very bad. I did manage to walk 1.5 miles though! I'm sure that counts for somethin... right?:ohwell:

    Someone kick my *kitten* please.... I have to get back in the game. But not today... birthday girls can do whatever they want or do not want to do :bigsmile:

    8 miles! You're my hero!

    I ran a 10k. It was my first. 6.25 miles.

    side note:
    when I was in middle school i ran track because there was no try-outs for the track team. I wanted to do something athletic and track was an accepting bunch. I was so slow. I ran with the other "fat kids" in the 800. My parents wouldn’t come because they were embarrassed (they now openly admit this detail). Today I ran 6.25 miles...take that eighth grade body awkwardness!
