Hugs - February Challenge (Page 24)

Hm. Maybe THAT"S the reason our post count is so low this month!!!!

That's true though -- we haven't heard from him in a long time.... Hope he's ok!

ANDY! Where are you?????

(Road trip to Andy's house to make sure he's OK!)

It's official.  I'm sick.  And I still get to clean up the puke.   But to be fair, Bryan is sick too.  Hope it is short lived.  This week is a total wash, already. 

And with the entire house puking (except Liam), I am withdrawing from the challenge for the first time.  

Now, if you will excuse me, I shall head back to bed, where I have been, on and off, since 1:00 this afternoon. 

Mon - 6 mi @ lunchtime  I'M DONE WIT DIS GUY! (6.2 mi at lunch)
Wed - 8 mi in the morning I'M DONE WIT DIS GUY! (8.05 mi at 5:15am)
Thur - 6 mi @ lunchtime
Sat - 6 mi when I can squeeze it in

There's going to be broken "Hearts" and major "Kiss"-offs at the end of this month.  Hugs are going to sneak their way into first place!  BOO-YAH!!!

Snow day today! I have a feeling clearing the nonstop, wet snow and the sledding yet to come will end up replacing my run today. We'll see how energetic I feel. But I WILL get on the trainer today for some more mileage!

Erica, if you manage to get out of bed to read any of this, I hope you feel better soon! It's hard trying to take care of sick kids and yourself, I know. Take care of yourself too!

Sorry to hear about all the illness and misfortune amongst the team.    Hopefully the next few weeks will be the chance to recover and reenergize.

Ran 3 miles on the treadmill this morning.  Did 2 1-mile repeats at 9 min/mi pace.  Knee felt great and I didn't feel any twinges of pain.

Time to ramp back up, but SLOWLY.  I'll make sure to follow the 10% rule...

Not fun.  Its bad enough when you get sick, but to have the whole family sick while your sick. Everyone will get the rest they need except you because you're taking care of everyone else. At least you're all getting it over with at once instead of dragging it on for weeks.  I hope you all get better soon and we'll see you in next months challenge if you're up to it. 

Yippee Skippy!!! 12+ inches of snow coming... starts tonight at midnight with freezing rain and then switches over to all snow just in time for morning rush hour and doesn't end until Friday afternoon.  Translation... kids will have snow days tomorrow and Friday.  WTF ever happened to global freaking warming?!?!?  I'm selling everything and moving to the Congo! :-P

Aw. Hope EVERYONE is feeling better soon!

Just reading that ^^^ is making me want to turn the heat up in here!

I'm sorry you are sick. Take care of yourself and get well.

uggg we got more of the white stuff! I am so done with snow!

JEALOUS! Although I did just get a new saddle too.....a serfas carma...I now have a happy bottom!

ohhh Erica I am sorry to hear this! You all need a break from the sickies!

Nice! I sure hope so!

excellent news Sal!

so much for the rain melting it all away hugh?

Morning team! As for me I did not get my run in on Tuesday...I was feeling very beat up myself so gave the legs a break! I sub a strength class today and will run the track after, then will have to get one more to hit 100%. I will try to go over but not sure about that!

The goal this morning was to spend 45min - 1hr in the new saddle and get in a nice drainer ride.  But when the alarm went off at 5:15, I felt a little conjested and scratchy in the throat.  So I decided the sleep was more important.  Biking doesn't count on my LOVE goal, so no biggie. 

We barely had a dusting of snow by morning rush, but all the kids schools were cancelled anyway.  I'm at work and might go over to the gym at lunch to try and chop a few miles off that LOVE goal.  Have a great day everyone!

got in over 4 miles yesterday over lunch.  I played with the incline and varied speed.  I won't be able to make my goal, but I'll do what I can.  Sorry gang.  Today is to be a rest day according to the schedule, but maybe I'll put a mile or two on.

Was busy with home projects last night and was worried that I would miss my run. When I finished cleaning up at 10:30 and looked outside it was snowing but I was determined to go for a run.  I'm glad that I did. It was a beautiful and peaceful night (except for the occasional car) and I loved watching the snow fall.  My time was even better then normal and that doesn't take into account that I had a phone call part way through the run.  I'm very glad I went running.

Plus, that puts me at 100% on my love goal and 105% on my mileage goal and I still have my long run to go on Saturday.  This has been a good month.  Now if I can just get my weight goal, it would be the icing on the cake.

We still have a shot fellow Hugs!  keep working at it!  We can do this!
