Who's Your Marmadaddy (Page 2)

X2... nice for those who are technically challenged, whose memories are lapsing or who are easily distracted.  I fall into all three categories.

Sal, I can make the change for you - just let me know what you decided on for your team name

We'll take 'Who's Your Marmadaddy' for $200, Alex...

Thanks Beth!

Done - That was kind of fun!

You forgot the '?' mark...

Do I have to send Mila after you for a grammar lesson

Yes, I did leave the question mark off intentionally

Hi Bunny!

Glad you're running with me again.  I like the virtual run idea.  I might have to borrow that with a twist.  Let's see, I ran 423.86 miles last year...I need to pick out a city about that distance from me and see if I can not only get there but one another 425 miles beyond this year...Time to hit the maps and see where I want to go on a virtual run tour...

Dexter and Mike--did you guys survive Freezaroo 2?  I saw the pic on Mike's page but that was before the run (the caption was cute though)

I left it off intentionally, too, 'cause I didn't think there was any question as to who our marmadaddy was .

Got my first 2.25 miles of 2008 in today.  I swam, too.  Apparently that whole swim challenge thing got me into the habit.  Go figure...

** walks into room**

 Well hello group, my name is CJ

* group says back* HI CJ!

  I'm a triathlete and I love it.  I am a 23 year old grad student studying for my MBA on the eastern shore of Maryland.  This will be technically my 3rd year for tri's and I am trying to build some fitness for my big race "Columbia Triathlon" this coming spring.  I'm a usual on this site I guess you could say.  Put my $.02 when needed.  Pleasure meeting you all

GO TEAM!!

** sits down **
 

I'm gonna sit next to CJ and sing the Maryland fight song to him repeatedly .  I'd sing the fight song from the Maryland institution where I got my masters but, ummm... I don't know it.  We didn't sing it all that often at the lax games and blue jays aren't all that intimidating.  Not nearly as much as turtles.  Fear the turtle... oh wait... 

Hi CJ--

great 5 K today!

OK, so I guess I didn't do my official introduction...

My name is Mila (it's pronounced my-la), and I am not 23 anymore.  I was sidelined by an injury last season and wasn't able to run from late June through early November, so I'm trying to regain my run fitness one step at a time.  This year's planned races include Iron Girl as well as a couple of sprints and likely at least one HIM relay.  I like to ride my pretty bike which, it's been said, has some pink accessories on it. 

What else?  I'm a former competitive figures skater which hasn't exactly translated into the whole swim/run thing (biking, believe it or not, is used as cross training for skaters, though I was never into it seriously while skating) so it's a big learning curve for me.  I'm a spin instructor and I also have an educational consulting business.  In my free time I play with Play-Doh and Aquadoodle my toddler and serve as chauffeur to his older siblings.  I'm also pretty active in my tri club and, from time to time, I log onto BT .

Hi CJ, Mila!

My name is Brett, and I'm a triathlete: 

Room answers "Hi Brett"   (Ok, CJ did this first, but hey -- why let a good thing die)

Well, I've got almost 10% of my distance committment for the month done.  Goal is 35 miles, did 3.43 today. 

By way of intro, I'm a 47 year old father of 4 ( 1 in college, 3 teenagers-- and getting more grey hair by the minute!)  Been running for about 9 years including 5 marathons, and 8 or 9 half marathons (all slowly).  I've been a triathlete for about 3 years.

Hope everyone had a great new year!   See you on the trails!

Most Excellent!
