Good Morning Ghoulies!  A new Thread... A new challenge... and a new Friday!  Whee hee!

Hi Ann.  Hi Stacie.

Uh oh.  What happened?

Kendra,

Don't know if I can help, but you can PM me about your library contest.  Sorry your thread got pulled.

UGH... did you guys just see the Ironman Lake Placid Announcement.  Apparently this winter took a toll on the roads up in Placid, Route 9 in Jay particularly and there is a major road construction project slated to start next month to repair frost heaves and cracked pavement that will have half the course under construction for the entire summer.  In response WTC has had no choice but to make the Bike course a FOUR TIME out & back down the Keene descent and back.  We're gonna have to climb the Keene descent four freaking times!!  They said the estimated new elevation gain will be doubled and make this (for this year) one of the toughest Ironman Bike's.  WTC said we should embrace this change and challenge and begin training accordingly.  UNBELIEVABLE!! 

This post^^ Hahahaha...

LOL   oh dear...

Hello again, Dee.

Good morning, Melissa. Would you feel better if we rigged a little motor up on your bike?

Did you feel the earth shake this morning? If you did it was just me getting up and going for a SWIM. I was in the pool by 8:20. Which is amazing for me since it is ordinarially a 35 minute drive but I forgot about school busses. It was a 50 minute drive. Anyway 50 minute of swim before the hair appoingment.

I am going to loll about reading magazines and maybe even take a nap. Just because I can

WOOHOO for swimming!!!

Good one!

Here are 2 things that ARE NOT April Fool's Jokes

1) We had snow today! It's April!!!

2) I got a text from AT&T telling me that I have accrued more than $50 in text charges this month. I am supposed to get a message when I am approaching my limit, but I did not. I have now changed my plan to unlimited text. The good news is my new billing cycle starts this weekend, so additional cost should be minimal. I previously only had 1500 texts a month and I went over 2500. Oops.

All those texts and not one to me (sniff).

A running challenge is a good idea!

I have a 10 K tomorrow and a 5 K on Saturday. Happily, and not coincidentally, they are both sponsored by local breweries. It was the only way I could get the DH to run, too. Next week I am supposed to do a trail HM. We will see about that one. I haven't run over 6 miles in MONTHS.

I'm sorry Robin. I'll do better with texting you in April.

Have fun running, and enjoy the after parties, too!!!

That sounds like fun!  I wish we had local breweries that sponsored races.  Well, actually, I just wish we had local breweries.

Is there any way to train for that?

I would be afraid to know the training plan
