Apple Team - Just Wanna Run - November

Hi Apples - I'm psyched to be a part of this group!! 

I am a huge fan of apples - all shapes, colors and yummy treats! My favoite memories of my grandfather always have an apple in one of his hands

Today is major house work day - with a formal event tonight - so i'll be putting sneaker to pavement tomorrow!

Let's kick some butt!! Happy November everyone!

after seeing enders_shadows 10 miles i had to post something!!

 i only did 2, but its 2 more than the rest of the team!!

Hey Team Apple...  Funny thing....the bullies in school called me "apple"  when they teased me in jr hi and sr. hi.  It was due to my overly caucasian skin and it's tendency to brigthen when embarrassed.

I am heading to do a 45 minute TM while watching TT and UT. 

hey Apples, we've got a new teammie: xcrunner2010

Let's go run!  (er, me included!)

Im here! Just got a solid run in today and found my team! No pumpkin or pecans!

Good luck everyone!

And another new one, HammerOZZ, joining today. 

enders: my husband makes a good apple crumble, would that work?  or apple butter?  apple sauce?  or just a crisp cool apple from the drawer?

RedSox: good start!  and what's a AllHallow's Day formal about?  I hope you work your sneakers

TriLynne:  nice to see you again!  glad you got a run in today - ride those endorphins!  Are you on FB?  I could send you a tartan treasure

DocHammer: I'm an apple too...rosacea 

nevergivin: good to have you as a teammate again!  Been a while!

KellyM:  nice runs today!  

the rest of you apples: post and say hello!

Hi Apples -

I'm Cynthia, your challenge organizer and a first year triathlete.  I did one mini and two sprint tris in 2008, as well as Muddy Buddy and a handful or so of 5Ks.  After the last tri of the season I decided to train for a 10K on Tgiving... my first at that distance. 

Last month I met my training volume, with an injured my quad.  I now have knee pain which I'm assuming is resultant from compensating for my quad (which now feels fine).  I'm hopeful my 10K is still possible!  Would be embarrassing to organize this challenge and fail my goals!

I like apple pie, with sour cream - though a good crumble beats pie anyday.  Pecan pie is good too, but I've never favored pumpkin. 

Let's be healthy and run a good month!

Hi everyone,

Sorry I'm late. Going for 50 miles this month.  Already did 6 yesterday.  Let's go get 'em!

Hi there!

I'm down in lovely Jacksonville, Fl for a few days of work and just posted 4.3 mile

...i was dreaming of ice cream melting over a slice of warm apple pie the whole time!

I have a friend running to and from the Polls today - hope everyone else does too!!

Morning everyone! Starbucks are giving away free coffee to anyone that votes.   I can't vote so that's pants.

It's cold and wet here in Seattle. Brrr but will no doubt take my puppy for a short run when I get home! Happy Tuesday!

7 miles today.  We are not a very chatty group are we???    That's OK means we're all business.

I'm a chatter. In fact I never shut up.   I didn't run tonight but had a glorious swim in a cold pool.  Needless to say I was all alone  

I have a loooong run this weekend.  As much as I have been enjoying training for this marathon I'm not looking forward to it.  Anyone got any tips as how to dress for runs that start out freezing but end up warm?
