every time I read that it makes me happy for myself because I am a member of The World (although the team) and sad for Canada since it seems to be separate from The World. :-)
Keep up the great work everyone! Man, that's right! Makes Canada look so lonely. Maybe we should be called "Everywhere Else", lol! I feel bad for Canada also but they are 5 minutes from me where I sit right now and I have a hard time putting them with "The World" if they are only 5 minutes away. Now "The World" is much more like 5 hours away by plane and I am good with you guys being "The World". I just didn't want to lump sum Canada because a Canadian team hasn't won the Stanley Cup in a long time and I feel bad for them about that. Or a World Series. I may be wrong but didn't Jays win World Series more recently than a hockey team - nah that can't be right. Time for Google!! Well it was a tie 93 Blue Jays and Canadians won respective championship! In any case, it's been WAY too long. At least I'm old enough remember both of those (barely |

Holy cow...I am SLOW! Guess that's what being 31 weeks pregnant does to your body.
Slacker Yeah yeah. Congrats Jenn!!! Yes!!! Congrats!!!! I ran through my pregnancy. I can relate to how you feel. Thanks!! It is interesting running right now. My front/back balance is all screwed up! I feel like I'm leaning far back to compensate for all the extra weight in the front. I'm happy I'm still able to run, but it is a bit frustrating that I'm so much slower! I can imagine that balance is an issue. Good for you for keeping on. Makes my excuses seem a bit weak, however |

Lenny - I could have scored CWWC points this morning on my commute - I had a hat, gloves, and fleece on today - brrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! I think your commute should take the CWWC again this year. I did have a couple 32 degree runs last weekend. This weekend looking like 50's.

What gives? Oh did you notice that??? I ran 70 miles recently - last month was a slow month! I started a 10K training program and that is what they called for. I can drop the mileage if you want
I maybe a rule breaker also, I ran 5 times in September and have already ran 4 times this month. I will have my Sept total passed in the next two days All I could think reading your post is - awesome! Hope shermbelle is on MW team! Sure enough, so I guess that makes it double awesome! |

I LOVE IT! And here I was happy about it, because I thought we were special! :P But I guess that we aren't all snowflakes... Gotta get out for another run tonight. This working 11 hours a day plus 1 hour each way of commuting is really putting a dent in my training time! Ya'll commute an hour each way in Canada? Who knew? ![]() |

It's the cool fall weather that makes running fun 87F? In Minnesota? In October? ![]() ![]() ![]() That will be next week. |

Master![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Good morning! Got a very wind 4 mile run in. The first two miles were horrible, but on the last two miles, I felt like I had someone's hand on my back pushing me along. That's some wind out there. I have PT this afternoon, so I won't run again today -- maybe bike -- but that' doesn't count in here. And then there's that wind to contend with, so maybe no bike after all. |

When I look at the board here is how I see it - the Southeast members have obviously just set super lofty goals so that we must really push our limits and struggle to complete the challenge. We push the envelope down here. :-p |

My right hip has been plaguing me for the last few days, though, and I'm getting worried. I think it needs to be tasered. Either that, or we can hook you up to a nice Jacob's ladder. ![]() |

Extreme Veteran![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Did an early am run today. It was a "fast" run. I read somewhere that in training one should have a long run, a short fast run, an easy run and a medium tempo each week. Any thoughts on that? Also - pretty lucky where I am - there is a local car dealer who just started his own challenge for getting healthy - grand prize is $5000 cash & $5000 off msrp on a new vehicle. Weight loss, participation in local events, post health tips online are all ways to get points. Should go well with this challenge |
