My pick me up will be finishing this final tomorrow...and the post plans that I have...(im so gonna go for a swim and bike/run to make up for the crap week of training i've had...and I think i will also have a good nap and watch some scrubs..then go dancing at the bar...no drinking for me though I don't think...cause I have a 90min run on Sat that I should probably just get done...) Lets go Ghoulies! good luck in your final Melissa....and even if you have one drink...keep it to one...and no cheap liquor - or you will still feel it in the AM! |

The swim was a killer! sounds like a killer! now can you be a giver on your birthday and swim another set for me!? have not been to the pool in say 3 months! and looks like it will be some more time....I have to find an indoor pool...this outdoor swimming does not go over well in the winter months! IM A WIMP, OK!!??? |

Instead of gambling and avoiding hookers on the strip I drove through the Mojave National Park (Desert) in the California/Nevada border. Pretty awesome I must say. Had an awesome time driving - taking pictures - took a little hike on a huge sanddune - and then chased a rainbow out of the park - absolutely beautiful! great picture Bill... hows the temps? looks warm...but I know pics can be decieving! |

I have a relatively light day at work and am going to leave early. The plan is to try and get all my weekend errands done today so that I'm a free agent on Sat/Sun. Looking forward to the weekend *toppage* That sounds like a great plan. Hope you get to enjoy it! |

Champion 7546 Santa Cruz, California | Subject: RE: The Ghoulies Are Running a Half Marathon in January!!! POST #6700 ~ many of you know that I am here on this site after a family member passed away while competing in an ironman competition. I was much heavier and was smoking cigarettes...I vowed at her funeral that I would do a triathlon...and did! I have received a few pieces of hardware at some of my races...I of course held them up to the sky and my husband and I would cry arm in arm after each race! So as you can see, she is still inspiring people even after her death! Two years later and I am contemplating doing a half ironman with my daughter...we are thinking we may do the Santa Barbara HIM but this is only talk at this stage for me! Last year I did not get to race in many of the races I would have liked to of due to my work schedule...but...this year I am diving in! I plan on being at the start of many triathlons, mtn bike races and a few foot races. I have already signed up for a few...so as to not back out! This year I would like to see my confidence build in the pool! I can now swim with ease for hours...but my form and speed is an issue! I may actually attend some masters swim classes! can only help, right? I am going to find an indoor pool for the winter months...It is too hard to get myself to go when it is super cold out! once Im there Im fine..but motivation is not there and I need that at this stage. Feel free to shove me in gently! cross training: I am looking to buy a mtn bike since the one I retired is sooooo outdated! I am looking to race a few races this year...but will be racing cross country instead of the downhill that I used to race for over 15 years....I guess I finally got smart after knocking myself out and cracking my helmet in 4 or more places in the last downhill race I raced last year! ashamed it took me whacking myself crazy to come to this decision! haha I have met some of my dearest friends on BT...I love this site and appreciate all your motivation and support! I look forward to another year with all you ghoulish year with all my ghoulie brothers and sisters! LOVE YA MAN!!!!!!!!! Edited by Girl Passing on Left 2010-01-22 12:43 PM |

YAY! Happy Bday Neal!!! Are ya 1, are ya 2, are ya 3....I could go on....But I should prob get back to studying! :/ So you can get back to studying I'll tell you, I he's 29. If I have nightmares of The Count from Sesame Street tonight it is on you! The good news is I get to be 29 for the next 5 years or so So what your saying is you hit 29 and became a woman? Not quite. I guess I have a whole year to come to terms with turning 30. The nice thing about living in a college town is that I always get asked if I'm still in school. That'll keep me feeling young NEAL, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! Hope you celebrate this weekend in style. Clean living and pure thoughts have kept me young.  x29. Happy birthday bud. I didn't realize we are only about 5 months apart! I'll let you know what the big 3-0 feels like in August... Tom....when is your birthday...I turn 3-0 at the end of July August 23rd here. Come on down and we can throw a party! (If I still live here) |
