work!

Ooh!  I have similar plans.  Well, minus the running and the chores.  So really just the not working part, but that's good enough for me

D001 - 2009-11-20 5:57 PM Well, I'm here. I just lost a week due to "medication issues." That's what happens when they introduce a generic version of a medication - and your insurance won't cover the name brand anymore because they're *supposedly* equivalent. (Believe me, they aren't equivalent, at least not to my body.) Needless to say, I'm now wondering how I'm going to reach my goal this month. I won't be around the week of Thanksgiving..... Stoopid medications.

KOM - 2009-11-20 5:24 PM Happy it's the weekend team!!  Just home from work and picking up Mexican take-out.  Gotta love Friday night take-out!!  Plan a looong run tomorrow then a shorter run Sunday and hopefully a swim lesson on Sunday.  I have somehow invited several people for Thanksgiving so I need to get cracking on the prep for that.....like maybe get a turkey???  Hope all is well in gabbing gobbler land.....Did Bill win the lottery??

Hey Team! Sorry I've been absent! I got sick about 2 weeks ago with bronchitis...it was fantastic...So I haven't been out there running! AH!

All that sick time did give me some time to evaluate my season planning though...and I'm thinking of trying to make some sort of re-entry into competitive swimming!!! AAHHHH!!! H-core! I`ve contacted my old coach and we will see what he says...I have this ridiculous urge to go back...I`m planning on making that and tri training happen...yay for relatively non-overlaping seasons!! I have a plan now!

Congrats to you all on your progress so far this month!!

Good morning team!  I hope everyone is having a fabulous weekend.  It's rainy and gray here, but it's been a peaceful weekend for a change -- maybe the calm before the storm?

I had a "discussion" with Dee about my knee, and came to the conclusion that I need to withdraw from the challenge this month.  I am not used to being injured, and I don't want to push too soon and risk further injury.  It's running season here!  I missed a fabulous race yesterday and I don't want to sit out the entire season.  So I'm going to be a cheerleader for our team...

So, here goes:  Go get 'em Gobblers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

iowagander - 2009-11-22 6:40 PM Good afternoon Ghoulies. I just did a 5k time trial around the neighborhood in 23:21. It was a little more than a minute over my PR, but considering the hilly course and my horrendous nutrition lately I'm happy with it. Now it's time to get in a quick ST session, unclog the kitchen sink (yay!!!), and make dinner.
