hi kids! Lots new on the boards I see :) Figured I'd stick my head back in from time to time so you all know I'm still alive :)

hi all again! miss you bunches :) still running 3 miles a day in the upwards of 80% humidity every day- can't WAIT for it to get cool enough for me to go a long way without water (I still really hate carrying water) - next race will probably be a 10K on Dec 5th (savannah bridge run) - still haven't made up my mind about…

tomorrow is my 1 year running anniversary! I am pretty excited. Today I hit 300 miles for the year, also very exciting! :) So many memories, so much of finding myself this year, it's been awesome.

I have been away again, as usual :( On vacation for a week in the OuterBanks where I ran 5 out of the 7 days at 6:30am! and also did a 5K while I was there, and took 1.45 off my fastest 5K time to date! WOOT WOOT! :) Now just plugging away at the miles getting ready for the Rock and Roll in November. Tim, which hotel are…

Holy crap Tim! That's a lot of miles.... Wow! Well yesterday I bought a pair of pearl izumis 0 drop and then it rained cats and dogs, and I was very hungover, so today I set my alarm for 730am, went out and ran 7 glorious awesome miles. Haven't ran that far since feb when I did the half. I'm a very happy girl right now -…

Sorry I STILL haven't been around. Argh. my life is still uber complicated... On a plus side, happy 11 month running anniversary to me! 489 miles of roadway have bought me this far, as well as 3 pairs of awesome shoes, (which I still all wear) and 1 month to go to the big 1 year! I think, however, I have to fix my…

Congratulations!!!!! So awesome :) I am proud of you. I am lucky I have zero sweet tooth, but I have a bigger problem, I go right for beer! Lol 4 miles logged yesterday and another 4 today for national running day! Feels good to get out, even if it's still plodding along at the same 11-12 minute pace. This 93 degree 70+ %…

So sorry guys and gals, I've been a round just nutso busy!!! I see I've missed a lot, but no time to catch up either :(

Everyone's doing so great! Congrats Zane and Laura! I'm jealous of everyone's long runs I haven't been able to get up early enough to do one before the heat!

Varda, I love your tights!!!' Big news for me,... It's taken 9 months 4 days and approximately 419 miles of running but I finally achieved a sub 10 minute mile!!!! 9.56!!!! I looked down wt my watch and went holy &$?& I'm doing a 9:20 at one point and decided I was going to keep it going as fast as I could. So so so proud…

to the OP. if you see little white flecks or feel grit on your skin (usually your face) you are a salty sweater :) I am, but only after a long run... Yesterday I finally did 4 miles again YAY! I was happy to be doing it and was very mellow... my mind went to its happy place where all is well. I tend to run a lot…

Just then usual 3 Monday and 3 yesterday. Of course I'm now ravenously hungry and could pretty much eat everything in site, like I did yesterday! Argh. I'm never hungry until the day after a run then I'm like an insatiable beast! ;( Great job plex! Everyone's getting back out there!

I've been Mia too ;( happy Easter everyone!!! Still running just 3 after 3 after 3 miles. I need to get out of this rut, but still coughing up a bit of grossness so hopefully I can kick the final of the plague I have and get back to my regular running life! Congrats ceci!!!! So cool and to everyone else doing so well! So…

Thanks all - yes, I sniff Walgreens spray up my nose, take allergy meds (usually only when i'm feeling ick) and then vicks vaporub too. TONS better, all the symptoms are gone except the grossness in my lungs that is threatening to drown me! I didn't have to take anything yesterday so hopefully that means I'll be running…

is your wife wearing vibrams Tim? those photos are great :) I am, of course, SICK again. I have another sinus something or other going on. Exercise induced rhinitis is what I think I keep getting. Sucks, just get healthy then something else! I guess I'm lucky its not muscle or joint though, just a damn sinus infection…

I can't participate in that thread, I have hideous legs. Even if I ran a million miles they would still be hideous! :) just thought I'd let you know that lol Ran 4 yesterday, and 3 this morning. Back on track!

what are Australian pushups? LOL I am Australian, does that involve a beer at all? LOL Way to go PR!!!!!!! And good for you getting up and doing it all again after a fall - that's never easy... Awesome Tim, and great photos too!!! You should be very proud of all the accomplishments you and your wife make! Especially…

Ok I'm back! I've still been running but SO busy it's ridiculous... After a whilwind weekend in pittsburgh (where I got to play in the snow and run on giant hills and stairs - woot woot) I am back in the game. Had a delicious meal replacement smoothie for lunch (since I ate too much all weekend) and now back to the…

3 miles today and yesterday also... Lady at work and I have started text messaging sweaty selfies to each other after every workout to Inspire the other person (or guilt them) either way, there's money on the line. (Hehe) $.50 c for every missed workout that we each committed to. She committed to 6 a week, I committed to…

Have friends in town which means copious amounts of beer and food so today was a nice 5 miler yay! Longest I've gone this month as I've been building my base back up. St pattys in savannah is also off the charts - so thankfully I volunteered to drive last night and no hangover! Yay! Congrats Tim and everyone else doing so…

NIce pic joe!!!! You look like Daniel Cameron sort of ;) Go Beth!!!! Sub 10!!!! I've been out an about a few times, only ever 3 miles at a clip though, but hopefully I'll be back at it hard core soon. Feeling good, and can't remember who the orig poster was. But whoever said to try and walk in a straight line and it making…

I. HAVE. RUN! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY My bits have stopped aching, for now :) Hopefully this means I'm back on the mend, again... I feel like I've done absolutely nothing this year! lol Great runs everyone -

I concur also, except I don't wear t shirts so I give them all to my running neighbor ;) Sucky sucky week -.Im on lidocaine, antibiotics and pain killers right now - don't ask - hopefully I'll be able to run again by Thursday ;(((((

Went back to the circle track friday after work and did 3 easy miles with a hangover - yes, I drink when I have to go to customer dinners of my hubby's ;) then today I went out for 3.5 with a borrowed new orange mud hydra quiver water pack thingy the run I store LENT me to try until the hot pink one I ordered comes in ;)…

Go plex!!!!!!! Way to pr!!! Thanks for the link Tim!

Go run coach Beth!!!!! I dislike trails, I am always worried about my ankles ;( I'd rather take my chances with a car also than some of the wild animals we have around here ;) sort of kidding ;) Didn't get to run at all yesterday, had to go help out at other office after work, and rain forecast for today.... I'm still…

I would be cancelling my order and going with a different company - that's shameful! It can't be that hard to read a box label lol I'm sorry Romy!! Great run Ceci! Laura - I haven't yet, but I may yet today. Still debating going back there for more torture or going to run class - lol

GO TEAM LAURA!!!!!! So happy for you!!!!! Ran 4 miles today on a new track, in a circle, 1 mile a loop. Didn't love it, didn't hate it, felt wierd wierd wierd running on concrete... I usually run right on the road, without any ups and downs, and no turns to speak of really.... I may go back for some more torture tomorrow ;)

I want someone to control MY food!!! LOL I went for a 5 mile bikeride yesterday because I didn't have time for a run before my appointments and before the rain came in. It was torturous - I couldn't keep up with my husband to SAVE myself. I was so slow, and my thighs were just killing. I expected to run away from him given…

Tim looks fit and happy, I was simply delusional in my last photo ;) my toes, however were happy!!! You look so bundled and cute ;) you are a rock star for those miles in those conditions!!! Congrats everyone on your awesome progress this week/end. I went out for 3 - a high 10.something - then mid 11s for the remaining. I…
