MPF Runners Club 8/30

WTG Sherry and good morning runners!!

I ran 4.5 miles this morning. I envy those of you who have been talking about your cool morning runs. It is still warm and muggy in Texas. I guess I should not whine. In a couple of months my weather will still be nice while some of you will be freezing!!

Shannon - Good luck with your run today. I hope your foot is ready.

Good runs and good rests to everyone.
JD

Today I'm going to get on the elliptical with high resistance. I'm limited on what I can do because I'm at work. So I'm going to watch the second half of LOTR Return of the King while I work out. I live a charmed life.

Of course this is all contingent upon not having to put bandaids on too many Joe Q Publics because they stubbed their toe getting off the boat while drunk......

Holiday weekends at the fire station.....

6 mile early run for me.

And then my kids did a kids of steel triathlon this morning- 50yd swim, 1.5 mile bike, .5 mile run. They did AWESOME and it was fun to cheer them on. They've been awesome cheerleaders for me at my races!

Have a good one!

Jess

How fun for them and you. That is nice really. I bet they loved it after cheering you on all this time!:drinker:

Good morning to all runners. Sounds like everyone is having a great day.

I did a 5.4 mile run today. I had a hard time of it though. Didn't stop or anything, but was really pushing myself, and pace was slower to at 12:24. I was questionalbe going in the first place, kind of a little stomach thing... but not really sick. Ok... kind of a bathroom thing.:embarassed: :grumble: Anyway, I wasn't sure if I would be able to go very far, but once I got going, I was OK, just couldn't get any speed, so I just treadged along.
I also got pumped up again this last week for those keeping track. That is 2 times in 2 weeks because of the leak we are rushing things along. I wasn't going to go larger, but once I got a little bigger, I said one more time. But right now I am two pumps bigger than I am going to be and I am huge. Like a double D at least. My daughter is an F (naturally), and right now I almost look like her. I will be glad when I get the replacements in, they should be like a C (what I use to be). The only reason I bring it up, it is a bit of extra weight I am not use to carrying around. I honestly think it could be a small part of the reason for the slowness.

It is also very humid today, and this overcast. We are supposed to get thunderstorms. They usually go around our house. I wish it would rain, wouldn't have to water stuff.

I hope everyone has a save and fun weekend.
Enjoy,
SM

Wow so many good runs this morning! :drinker:

Great going Sherry, JD, Jess, SM & Ali (you are sooooo ready for your 1/2!!!) :drinker: :drinker: Hopefully you won't have too many boo-boo's to bandage, firegirl. :laugh:

Well - got in 4.6 miles this morning! Foot feels fine, but BOY did I get soft taking a couple weeks off. :embarassed:

Have a wonderful, safe weekend my crazies!!! :smooched: :smooched:

WELCOME BACK TO THE RACE SHANNON!! and 4.6 miles wouldnt be considered soft :laugh:

Ali

:drinker: Yay Shannon Glad to hear it went well even though you've gone soft! You will be back in full swing or stride in no time flat!

Rest day for me, I have got to get my house cleaned up before I end up on that BBC show "How Clean is your House". Okay, no where near that level, but it does need a good end of summer wipe down :happy:

Have a great Saturday run everyone!
