I want to do a 1/2 mary the beginning of November so this run challenge will do me good! Need to still figure out my goal. Will look at the training plans here or if anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them! The longest I have ever run was a 10 mile but that was in June. I have only been doing 5k's since then. So I need to start from there. I am also a fitness instructor at the Y and need to adjust my workouts for when I teach a lot of classes.

Kim, congrats on the AG hardware!!!!

To be honest I have no idea...I guess I should look it up...I had an inspirational quote of the day calendar a couple years ago and this was one of the quotes...I really liked it...it has kind of become my motto

kromanowski - 2009-10-02 4:56 AM Morning All! BIG day for us here in Chicago!!! I know many people here are against us getting the Olympics because of costs, but I guess because I am a south-sider I can see the potential to rejuvenate neighborhoods that have been neglected for years...oh yeah and I happen to love the olympics

sorry Katie...was just watching the news and Chicago was eliminated! I think it would have been great there! my grandmother grew up there and I would have liked to make a trip there to see her old stomping grounds....

obtw...if any of you know who John Phillip Sousa is...my grandmother was asked to perform in a concert in some park in Chicago with him...back in the 30's or 40's! She was a professional whistler...yup there is such a thing! haha ~~she was walking thru the park whistling when Sousa went past...and loved what he heard...he asked her on the spot to come perform with him while he was playing....pretty cool, eh!??

That's awesome! As a former band geek, that's a really cool story.

I'm thinking pasta with chicken. The asparagus here has been good lately, so I think I'll pick up a couple bunches of that as well.

I love fresh asparagus.

wow pasta and fresh asparagus sounds yummy! where did you say you live...and is it rude to invite myself over for dinner tonight? I will bring desert!!

I'm in San Diego (Chula Vista, to be more specific). When you posted on my newbie thread, I believe you said you had some ties down here - correct? Anyway, if you're ever in town, I'll cook!

Ohhhhh will ya still be there in July? Hubby has convention every year at USD and I go with and hang out!!

50/50 if I'll still be here or not. Look me up though! I'd love to hang out for a run or a dinner with the families (or all of the above).
