I'm  a grouch today - need to work out...but didn't want to this morning and I didn't want to at lunch.

I hear you guys talk about hot and it's been soooo mild in Chicago this summer!  This is the 2nd week it's actually been hot-tish and we're talking about low 80's.  I have to say it's nice in general, but not good for warming up pool/lake water!!

I swim outdoors year round and I feel your pain! winter months can be very VERY tough on my finding a way to the pool! nothing worse then getting in cold water!!!!

hope your day gets better...I say take a break and get outdoors! do I need to speak with your boss! haha

You won't believe this -- I just got off the phone with Torture Dan.  He ran too hard this morning and he's too tired to come out and play!  But I have "instructions" on how to do it on my own.  So my question to you, dear teamies, is would you go out on your own or would you blow it off?

I vote you should do it but to be honest, I'd probably blow it off!   What are you supposed to do?

Warm up for .75 mile (because that's where the mile marker on the trail is).  Then sprint for a half mile, walk it off, sprint for another half mile, walk it off, sprint again for final half mile, then jog back to the car. 

We had a thunderstorm roll through earlier, so there is some cloud cover out there.  Temps dropped a little, but it's really steamy.  I'll probably go out and go through the motions, but I know I won't work as hard without my task-master there!  

I think "sprint" is too strong a word.  I really meant run my "great" 5K pace.

task master torture dan too tired.  poor baby. 


hard call to make whether to do the workout or not.

if it were me, id do it, cuz the 'guilt' of not doing it would drive me bonkers....

if you can blow it off and have a 'clear conscience' afterwards, then by all means blow it off, girl.

besides.  this man has been working your hiney off for weeks.

one missed workout.  no big deal.

whatever you decide.  thats the best choice.

I just got home from the gym where I managed to knock out my first of hopefully many lifting sessions.  I love how weights change my body (for the better) but boy is it the first thing to go when my plate is full!


MICHELLE.  i need to pull a 1/2 of an all nighter and keep you company.

We can take turns Stacie...you stay up all night one night with me then i'll get up at the butt crack of dawn and spend it with you!

I would soooo want to blow it off but then I would think about having to tell him that I didn't do it and i'd be out the door!!

Just a thunderstorm stop by - did some baseball stuff with son earlier and then hit the pool and weight room while he napped before football.  I will do another run while he is practicing and all is good   Tomorrow is my first real bike ride in a couple of days - going to some local trails to have some fun then back to work and commuting on Thursday.

Have a great day everyone!

so by hitting the trails...you mean mtn biking???

gosh...I am liking running, so I would say go...but if it is hot, humid and didnt you already run?...if thats the case..I would find a pool, a big blow up mattress, a nice thirst quenching drink...and RELAX! but that doesnt help on the challenge? and I do believe I saw your name on the peach challenge this week....right??? good luck with wutever u decide!
