Good stuff. My training log is going to be CRAMMED with "house cleaning" after today. I've already put in over 2 hours and I'm just getting warmed up. Here's to cardio-sweeping/wiping/scrubbing/folding! sounds good...been a while since I have made one of those....thanks for reminding me! I put apples in my tuna...makes it crunchy and naturally sweetens it...especially good the day or two after it was made!!! mmmmmmm you are making me hungry...and Im trying to hold off for the food at the festival. I CAN DO IT!!! Great idea with the apples! I'll have to try that this week. Tonight for dinner it's tilapia cooked with salt, pepper, and fresh-squeezed lemon and lime juice, with carrots and angel hair pasta. nice selection! I like talapia...it is one of many fishes I can eat...do you grill it? or pan fry it? |

The weather was terrific today. Lots of sun. I got a swim in early then went out for b'fast. This afternoon rode the Electra (and yes, she has a wicker basket and bell) up to the town sqaure for the fall festival. I heart kettlecorn. So now got to go pack. Am working in Munich for the next couple days and am flying out tonight. Will try to keep irrational jetlagged but can't sleep posting to a minimum. Not going to forget the ambien this trip. Saucony's and Garmin first things going in the bag. safe travels...curious, what kind of work you do that brought your there? |

Champion 6225 | Subject: RE: Show us your Ghoulies - Halloween Run Challenge kimk - 2009-10-04 6:58 AM skrtrnr - 2009-10-03 7:45 AM oh crap. here i thought i could come in on our thread and be mostly caught up. SILLY ME. i have to run, literally 40 min tempo on the plan for me. im heading to the Y, though....its sunny outside (still nip, but thats OK) i wish i was talented, focused, disciplined, astute enough to do a tempo outside....but alas, i get 'lost' in the run, forget what im doing, fall WAY OFF pace and screw the whole tempo run up. the TM thinks for me, keeps me in line, focused, disciplined and astute. as for talented. alas. i dont think ill ever be. even as hard as i train. BUT.... im the most consistent persistent athlete i know. so there you go. im off w my silly runnin' self. RUN HAPPY EVERYONE! stacieb ps - ESPECIALLY YOU JULES....A THOUSAND KISSES *MWAH* FOR YOU EPIC JOURNEY. Yes very persistent and that is what will get you across any finish line my dear! Hope the tempo run was good! thanks, KIM. persistence. consistency. hasnt failed me yet, that's for sure... as for the tempo. it was good. i was little under pace-wise. i was having female issues from HELL. but its done and in the books. on to an overall BETTER week this week - 11 mile long run and 8x200 intervals. woo hoo! |
