Had my kitty cat put to sleep today.  I'm very sad.


I am sorry for your loss...our pets become such a part of our family. Prayers sent your way.

Hello Team!!! Today is my crazy day with 5 fitness classes! My bike is at 100% I will get my last swim in today, might get a quick run in but will come up a little short on the run goal, the beginning of the month I missed a run because the canoe ride was badddd for the legs!! and I also thought the month went to Thursday! Which is a 2 a day for me!! and I am 3 short right now.  Sorry team!  But overall I am very pleased with the amount of training I did....soooo much better than the last 2 months! Thanks for the push team!

dcon - 2009-09-30 5:49 AM Hi everyone. Sept is a wrap for me. I got to the pool today and cranked out 1600 meters - just enough to take me to 100% on the swim. That was about my limit today. I was feeling kind of tired, but perhaps to be expected as this was my best month ever for all three disciplines from a training distance perspective. Good luck to everyone who still has some workouts remaining.Dan


Congratualations, Dan!!   Way to persevere!   GO TEAM

Sorry I've been missing in action for the last week.  Between my daughter coming in for the weekend and working and tennis I got a little behind on workouts.  But with a walk and ride on the bicycle this evening I'll be at 100%.

blujay65 - 2009-09-28 11:02 PM Hey everyone! Coming up for air... Some of you know I am now up in NJ seeing to the arrangements of my grandmothers funeral. She passed on Sunday morning. She had a long wonderful life (92 yrs old!) had all her facilities to the end and died quietly in her sleep. There is no way I can finish this challenge, although it may not matter the team seems to be doing so well! I may get a run in tomorrow... but there have been many late nights and busy days attending to family matters and such and I can not see me getting in additional rides or swims.

Sorry to let my team down!

Please feel free to drop me...Embarassed

So sorry to hear about your Grandmother.  Thoughts and prayers to you and your family during this time.

And don't worry.  You did not let the team down.

deehtz - 2009-09-25 8:57 AM Jogged last night with DH.  It went really well.  Tonight we plan to go bike riding.  I am very happy that he is walking & biking with me. 

Have a great weekend everyone!

Dee, I have been triing to get mine to do anything with me! He used to be in crosscountry/track in HS...Now I know that was 20yrs ago but he was GOOD! And he loved it then....20 yrs of not taking care of ourselves it will be hard and he won't be fast but I keep telling him it will get better! No go..Frown

How about getting his doctor to tell him to get active again?  Will that help any?
