Master  3195     Just South of Boston |  Subject: RE: SWBKRUN -CLOSED DUE TO TRAININGWe're nearly ready for Santa to come. Almost! Off for a short rehab run. Goal #1 for 2012 - lose the weight I've put on the past 7 weeks of sitting on my duff. And then lose more. Mike |

Man, that hurt....it was about the thickness of my arm and hit me across my left shoulder, head and left wrist. I really thought some psycho had jumped out and hit me from behind! Merry Christmas everyone Ouch! Hope you are OK. Make sure Santa doesn't spend too much time Down Under. He has a lot of presents to deliver!

Master 1841 Sendai, Japan | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN -CLOSED DUE TO TRAINING Christmas Eve is over and I'm heading to bed. I wanted to squeeze in a short run today, but it just did not happen. My wife's son's family are visiting and I ended up playing games with my 2 year old granddaughter for a couple hours. Pretty soon it was time to get two chickens ready and into the ovens. They turned out great. Lots of other good food, some beer, some wine, some wine, some wine and then a little cake for dessert. Life is good and I consumed enough calories to get me through 2-3 days worth of training. Happy holidays!!! Enjoy! |

Expert 819 In the Shadow of the Big House | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN -CLOSED DUE TO TRAINING Good to see so many people getting out to do their training even on the holiday. Wife just got back from her run, now it's my turn. Trying to get at least one of my boys to go with me. Then it's time to meet the relatives to eat until we can't stand. Why do we do this to ourselves? Oh well, it's just fuel for next weeks runs, right? Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah everyone |

George--that didn't sound right at first Did my long run in beautiful sunshine, but only 17F with winds so came home a popsicle. Now it's time to make a coconut cream pie for my FIL, a caramel tart for my MIL and a bunch of cookies for everyone else! We're grilling the tenderloin today too. Probably the nicest weather Paul has had to do it in the 5 years this has become the Christmas tradition! Enjoy! |

Merry Christmas everyone I am glad you are OK!! That is a serious (and justified) fear of mine if it's windy and I run in our trails (all fir trees). Yikes!! Love that Santa is making his way around the globe!! |

Regular 459 | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN -CLOSED DUE TO TRAINING Yikes. I've had some hazardous (slippery) runs, but that's it. Never falling trees. Thank goodness it wasn't worse, and hopefully you feel better quickly! I knocked off an easy 8k (5mi) run this morning. Outside this time. I've become a royal weather wimp since getting a treadmill. It was above freezing today, so there was no excuse for staying inside. Beautiful run. I also realized that 8km is the longest I've run since my half Mary mid-November, but I'll concentrate on that more after the holidays are done. Merry Christmas everyone! |

Extreme Veteran 668 NW Georgia | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN -CLOSED DUE TO TRAINING Happy Christmas Eve everyone! I thought I would celebrate with my first bike ride in over two months. My legs felt stronger overall, but I have definitely lost some bike fitness as I really tired toward the end. The good news: Lose It! now says I can eat 3,002 more calories today! Bring on the feast!!

Felt like it! But no, just added the 1200 or so to my daily allotment. I slept until almost noon, so my first meal was mid afternoon. |
