They all look hot, Cat... but, I would say 3, 1, 2, in that order.

... the plunging neckline is very hot... 'nuff said.

Agree 100%. I do like all of them, though. They all look great on you.

Aaaw thanks! Im hoping for NO shopping for clothes for awhile now!
 

Beth did Nibbins notes about 1-2 pages back... if you have a quick scroll they should stand out!

barqhead - 2007-11-16 8:10 PM OK, Amy: Are you married? What is your favorite part of triathlon? Do you prefer pics of legs ot feet?

Yes, I am married, although he travels alot and works 50-60 hours/week when he's in town, so...I'm pseudo-single. Um...just started training a few weeks ago, so I really couldn't tell you what my fave part is yet--the anticipation, maybe? Legs!! Definitely LEGS!

Pam...I knew you could bring Amy out of her shell! Well, guys, who's gonna show some leg for Amy's posting achievements? We see you have a green star now...

Bet she'd rather see yours than mine

LOL - i think you may be right on this one!

I got my haircut on Thursday. It must be a week for haircuts.

Oh a piccy from you too!  

Good NIght! The ligths sounds great

I had written some other stuff but it didn't stick.

Beth, thought you'd enjoy this pic. Mick on the left and Remey on the right. They didn't cooperate very well with the camera.

Ok I'm typing under the influence, so i better pull it over. Goodnight all. 

I have so much to say... so little of it appropriate .

Beth... I have a dog named Annie, too.  She isn't a redhead but she was a little orphan. 

And then there is The Big Dumb Dog Zeke:

 who feels the need to velcro himself to a human being every waking moment of the day.  Can you say "needy rescue dog with issues"?

I am assuming that you are following the recommended "acclimation" process of gradually using the orthotics, etc.?  Pressure on your foot is definitely going to change, which could cause blisters if you are blister prone.  And, obviously, the rest of your body is going to need to adjust to your modified posture, as well.

Meet my puppers

Annie and Romeo (Annie is the redhead)

Awwww! They're adorable! Hi Annie and Romeo!

I second that on your pups being adorable... Romeo looks as if he makes sure that Annie gets blamed for instigating any mischief that may ensue! 

Hey, all, I promised a summary of my Chirunning clinic.  I even tried out the technique at the gym last night, so I used the technique for 90 minutes of running yesterday.

Let me begin by saying that I am incredibly sore today, in core muscles that I do not normally use quite so much for running.

As the name implies, it is about embracing the philosophy of T'ai Chi... not meeting force with force, and harnessing the Chi (Qi) energy that is in all of us.  And, to use gravity to move you forward, rather than your legs to muscle you forward.

The key is proper alignment and engaging your core muscles.  Neutral pelvis so as to not "spill the chi".  We did some partner drills to emphasis just how strong this posture makes us, without much effort, at all.

And, I like the technique, but it is definitely going to take practice, practice, practice.  I had not read the book prior to the seminar, so I picked it up yesterday and started reading it last night (why I wasn't on the thread). 

Danny Dreyer, author, states that it takes a good 1-3 months to really become comfortable with the technique.  And, my instructor from yesterday, reminded us that, as written in the book, it is all about FDS: Form, Distance, Speed.   To learn the technique you will need to back off on distance and speed to perfect the form.  Then work on distance, then speed will pretty much follow because you "shift gears" by "adding more lean"...

So, I do recommend the clinic (it was only $120 here in MN for a five hour class). 

Well I can't catch up on the 7 pages that I missed here, but dropped in to say good morning to all the nibbies! 

I'm off to a local 5 mile road race, followed by a daily walking routine with my wife when I get home, and then some time on the trainer.  Hope everyone has a great Sunday (ummm, sorry Cat, I know it's almost over for you!).

Hi Nibbins,

hey, I got to ride my bike today Never know what I'll squeeze in on my weekend to work...So if I change jobs it would be a Mon-Fri gig doing insurance reviews and such.  Part of me wants to try it and part of me would hate doing nothing but paperwork all day (does that make me schizophrenic?) But I've been in the field a LONG time and have worked W/E, off shifts, holidays...the whole thing for 30+ years and would like to have a job I can leave at the end of the day.  Training around it could get interesting, but I see a whole lot of othe people handling training around a regular schedule like that so it's not an excuse...

I've heard they are awesome in concert.  My son went to see them in NYC, he loved it.

Awwww, they are cute!

Annie and Romeo are both like Zeke - OMG they are attached to a human every waking AND sleeping moment of the day - LOL
