kcarroll - 2009-10-12 3:39 AM Morning Ghoulies!  Today's run done.  5 more miles in the log.  Lots of "junk" on the roads these days.....pine cones, acorns, sticks & stuff.  Even with my head lamp it's a bit iffy.  No choice though.  If I don't run in the morning, it just doesn't happen.

im with ya on the morning run...good going! be careful out there...sounds like a war zone!

Run schedule this week is Tue/Wed/Thur Sat & Sun so that will work out hopefully.  I tweaked my knee playing football with my son and his friends yesterday but it felt good on the ride so hopefully it is nothing big.

Guess I need to remember I am 43 and not 13!

ahhhh you young thing, you! hope your knee is ok...make sure to take aleeve today...that will help with the swelling if there is any! and make sure to ice and elevate today some...even if you are not feeling it! I had the worst knee issue last year! could not run for months...but was able to bike and swim....I truly thought my days as a triathlete were over!!!! so, with that said...be careful! and do not over do!!

I am sending you some quick healing knee thoughts! hope they arrive safely to you!

Just checked weather history and it was low 30's this morning for my ride.  My son feel asleep in the living room so I was not able to throw the weather on and I should have worn a heavier hat but I survived.

Oh how about my Bronco's??? Not that I own them or anything but I invested a lot of my youth in them but now just laugh when the win when they shouldn't!

haha...did they win? sorry, I avoid football at all costs!

ilucy2 - 2009-10-12 7:18 AM Morning!-----Morning......hummm which one sounds better. Today I am supposed to have off, but crime does not stop for holidays. I just wish people would be more considerate of my off time. Kids are going to school, and thought I would take a run outside. Not sure it will be speedy, my leg is really hurting. I walked home from the store (a pissed off walk) and my screws or plate has been hurting since. I think it is easier to run than to walk, of course it might of been the shoes I had on.

plates and screws in your leg??? lucy...dang girl, sounds painful! take care! and no more walking home...especially in uncomfortable shoes!

I think we need to split a bottle of aleeve between us all! maybe we can get them to sponsor us!??? take care Lucy....and run...dont walk!

jaxbamf73 - 2009-10-10 8:06 PM Did some shopping today: new shoes, running running shorts and shirts...new stuff always makes you feel faster.


new stuff DOES make you feel faster!

im thinkin' my brandy new fuel belt did it for me yesturday. 

i dont like to shop.  i know, gasp.

but.....

shopping for running schwag, THATS the BEST!

was there a special occassion for your spree?

then im thinking.  does there need to be when it comes to running/tri gear. 

stacieb


Needed the new shoes and never really bought "running shorts."  I've always running in either tri shorts or basketball style gym shorts.  I must say the difference in gym and running  shorts was an eye-opener.


x2 on that... One of my first runs this past spring was a local 8k that I ran with a few friends. When I showed up in basketball shorts, my friend (who's an experienced runner) mentioned I'd probably enjoy running more in shorts designed for that activity. I didn't think much of it until I experienced some, ahem, chaffage after the run. The next day I got my first real running shorts and haven't worn the basketball shorts out running since.


Yes, and running shorts are, ahem, much more liberating!

no really? please do tell us more!??!??

No realllly~



Well with tri shorts, your goodies are all jammed up tween some lycra and a chamois.  With gym shorts, you have to wear some sort of brief (I prefer dri-fit material boxer-briefs).    Running shorts have a built in liner that negates the need for said briefs.  For cooler days I did find a pair of Asics that had a compresion-style boxer brief.  I hope I made that sound as clinical as possible to deprive you of any possible enjoyment you may have derived for such a description

yes very clinical indeed! in otherwords no crammed unit in the shorts! more room, and less lycra and chamois...makes for a happy unit! sounds reasonable! sooo why do I see all those lycra shorts in Ironman and Olympic tris?! did they not get that memo about comfort in racing!????

My typical running wear is a pair of gym shorts (longer length that the 70s style) with compression shorts underneath.  Running shorts are too short for my comfort and the show my tan line off.  I have 3 pair that never get worn.

Winter time I keep compression shorts and just add tights depending on temperature.

This past winter I made a special trip to EMS for some fleece re-inforced in important areas because I thought I was going to have frostbite and it was not good!

way to keep your jewels warm! haha frostbite sounds reallllllllllllllllllllly painful!

Big warm ski cap Jules!

Yes I thawed and I was comfy on my ride - I always dress good because I knew it was going to be cold - just not that cold

At least it was dry out!

haha you would laugh if you saw me in the morning...definitely a good thing I have been married for almost 30 years....cuz I look like a michelin man gone bad! I am alllllllll bundled up in a mish-mash of winter clothing. I start with thermals...then I add a sweater or sweatshirt...maybe both if it is super breezy...I usually put on a thick winter cap and my uggs...oh sweats over the thermal pants....so, hoping noone comes to the door! cuz...I wont answer! haha

you know what is pitiful...I sleep with my windows open and doors ajar! and a fan on the floor and the ceiling fan....now you see why it is soooooooooooo hard to crawl out of that warm bed! silly me! time to turn off the fans and close windows, you think???

We have free H/C at work - I did not even think of it because it would have been water and not milk and it is not as tasty!

so warm up the milk version! no?!?!???
