Hi Vixens! It's SOOOOOOO cold in NYC. Today's my day off, but I'm leaving at 4 for the airport for a biz trip, so it's only partially off. I met BTer rkreuser (Rick) for coffee this morning. He's working here for about 6 months so I'm hoping to do some running with him. I need faster people to pace me.

I went to the new pool today for a short swim, which - yay! - counts toward my goal! Loved the gym, I have no regrets. I fear I may have overstated on the goal, however. My shoulder was miserable the past few days, it kept me up almost the entire night Saturday. If the pain doesn't subside, I'll have to scale back. I'm starting HIM training soon and just can't risk any further damage. Let's hope it doesn't happen!

Have a safe trip Kristin.  I hope your shoulder doesn't give you too much trouble.

ebshot - 2008-12-08 11:44 AM Is it wrong that I don't want to call the school?  I would like to talk to his teach first but she's out sick.  She called and said she was having some sort of allergic reaction and couldn't make our meeting.  I think she needs to HTFU! 

I called.  What a waste of time!  The psych told me to bring in a copy of the OT report.  They don't/won't do an eval themselves.  I don't get it.  What is the OT doing all day that she can't check out my kid?  Oh well, I talked to a great advocacy group today and was able to get a ton of guidance as to what I need to do next.  That was nice.

Glad to hear you found an advocacy group- they will be your BT for getting your son what he needs & deserves.  Nice job on the frozen bun run today BTW ;-)

I don't know how you all go outside and do anything.  I REALLY don't like the cold.  Give me my treadmill and my tivo and I'm a happy vixen.

Hope your trip is to someplace warmer, at least! (Even if it's work-related, here's to hoping they're not sending you to... um, Chicago, for instance! Florida would be much better this time of year.)

Tis how she has her serving of wine lets say and keeps it incogneto (sp?)   I think thats it, or is it that thats just her prefered form of drinking vessel?  Can't quite remember and I was there for that part.

Ok, need some opinions here,

I am training to do a sprint (my first) this summer.  Should be ready by begining of summer I'm thinking (actually before then but no races till then).  Would it be too soon to then train for and complete an oly by the end of summer beginning of fall?

Hey Walt, the styrofoam carries over from the Halloween run challenge, Team Dark Arts. I was headed to DC on Amtrak and decided to bring my own wine, so had to get a styrofoam coffee cup from a deli to drink it out of. I posted from my blackberry the entire ride as well Classssay!

If you think you will be ready for a spring by the beginning of summer then I would say thats realistic and yuo should be just fine!

I would look at an Oly program and start that 12 weeks or so prior taking into account the sprint race... make sure yuo can do all of the distances separately in training at least once before had for reassurance and you will be fine!!!
