Very cute! I'd love to have a red convertible - not very practical in Nebraska in the dead of winter though - LOL




One should not use "red convertible" and "practical" in the same sentence.

Just played a tennis match. I should have put that on my goals also. Play 3 tennis matches and win. We won. Two more matches and we will win our division. No pressure, no pressure.

Oh, if you didn't know, Atlanta is a crazed town. Lots of league play, very very important. Bag tags are a big deal here.


You can add tennis to your goals if you want.

Question for the experts here. UPS just delivered my wet suit and I'm pretty excited to take it out and try it during my swim tonight. However Jchristoff just told me that wet suits and chlorine don't mix. I wanted to try it out long enough to make sure it fits and get a feel for it but I don't want to screw it up. I've been in the pool plenty of times during diving instruction but I never received that feedback. I know tri wet suits are made different and I don't want to screw it up. So someone point me in the right direction please.


Diving instruction.... Navy.....

OK. I see the connection.

I haven't gone diving in a long time. (Recreational, not military.)

Tri wetsuits are made differently?

Actually, it makes sense. A diving wet suit is designed for warmth, not movement. That wouldn't work in a tri suit.

("Excuse me while I act like a bowling ball and roll down to the water -- cause there's no way I can run in this thing.... And during the swim, I'll be the one bobbing around like a cork.")

HCS5QA - 2007-11-02 5:47 PMAre you guys talking about something like this:

Actually I just sold it and bought a truck but it was fun while it lasted.



Oh wow!

I was jealous.... until you said you sold it and bought a truck....

Now, I'm jealous of whoever owns it now.

Really? Spokes was a 'runner hater'? Wow. Never would have guessed that....

Oh, I guess re-reading that doesn't sound very good...I think better rephrased...spokes hated running...oops...

No, no.... I understood.

What I meant was that I was surprised that Spokes once hated running.

It's all he talks about these days.

We should write a book. Each chapter should be a story that starts out: "You know you're addicted to BT when......" I vote this as Chapter 1. LOL

It's not TAN. So I'm thinking it's OK.

I'll go with majority opinion though.

Ya know --> Twisnibbin is MUCH easier to say than TWSNBN.

Heh, I've been awake in Omaha Nebraska at 3:27am (Kellogg's plant test)...my other previous company (ConAgra) wanted to move me there, but I said 'thank you, but no thank you.'  Didn't want to move the kids.  Wanted to stay in the Twin Cities.  We did at least look at houses in the Papillion area...

So...what does one do in Omaha at 3:27am?

Okay, got my workout in for today. 2.5 run and 3 bike. On track for the run and may have to bump up the bike for the month if I keep this up. I had planned for the 30 miles to be a day trip the day after Thanksgiving on the Silver Comet trail with hubby.

I'm excited about the run cause I walked 2 minutes and then ran 12 minutes for a whole mile of running. Then walked a minute, run 3 and did reps of that till I got the 2.5 miles in. My goal is to be able to run a 5K on New Years Eve. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can...(Little Engine that Could).


Kendra,

That's awesome! Isn't this a big improvement over where you were a month ago?

(That's thanks to Cat's Run Challenge, I bet!)

Dee


Yes, a month ago, before the October challenge, I was strictly a walker. I decided after my Sept sprint that to increase my times I would need to learn to run. Along came the Oct challenge and I started. I can walk a 14 minute miles, but now I can run a 12 minute mile. So if I can keep this up and run the full 5K I should be able to knock 6 minutes off of my race times on the run portion.

I vote yes, LOL is allowed cause even though we may be giving TAN a run for their money, Twisnibbin is NOT TAN. We are Twisnibbin. Let's make up our own rules. "snerk"

Wow, that's FANTASTIC!  Once again, a little hard work pays off.  It really is about getting out there regularly, isn't it?  Great way to keep the focus!

Wow!  You give me hope, woman!  Of course I must REALLY be in bad shape if my combined running and walking was a 15 min mile.  Maybe I can give myself a break for my 28 in legs and the difference in altitude.

 I'm still trying to figure out how those of you with little ones find the time to work and train.  I'm in  a gym minimum 40 hours a week and still have a hard time finding the time  

If there's a secret trick will someone let me know.

Well, gotta get to work... R-ball Tournament draws and last day for youth basketball registration(aka "Dads coaching the next NBA prodigy"  UGH!
