Been bad with my posts so I am adding back a week of workouts.

All - have a great thanksgiving!

@Mitch - hitting trainerroad at 7:30 am (see you there) and then finishing up dinner for 26! Yup, I do all the cooking - all by scratch.

@Jackie - great report, better effort. Wow.

@Gabe - I was at Yankee stadium for the game. Besides the fact that we won, the scene was just awesome. The alumni took over the city Lafayette and Lehigh colors everywhere and The Empire State Building was lit up with each team's colors. Not that easy to relive the the good old days - took a couple of days to recover, but I did manage a 10 miler on Sunday around Manhattan.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Enjoy your friends and family! Thank you to all of you for being part of this team. I've enjoyed the support and motivation that each of you bring.

Thanks Mitch, you' re right, something went wrong somewhere. I will go off your numbers for now, will check everything later.

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!

I've finally recovered enough from a 2-day fever to get back to exercising. After a week of nothing it's hard getting started again.

That's why Consistency is the key. Try to do something almost every day.

30' on the trainer this evening.

Wow, Gabe, you better take care of yourself so you can be old like me ;-)

Catching up. Did the Tallahassee Turkey Trot and chose the 15K option. All three 5/10/15k start on the same course. I had a really great run, out my butt. I would have had a PR on the 5K, then I would have had one on the 10K, and I ended up with one on the 15K. My goal was to run a 9:42 pace and I ran a 9:34 pace including a porta potty stop to eliminate some coffee. The finish was good enough for 1st in AG or senior master if they award it. It sure is easier to only do one sport ;-)
