Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Ugh, my husband turned the alarm off on me this morning and didn't wake me up so the pool never happened. I will attempt the pool wake up call again tomorrow! Still have a run and situps/pushups planned for tonight. |

Nice bed, snug and warm for a little extra snooze or fighting the resolutioners for some pool time?? |

Winery ? Did someone mention winery
Jack: Man! That's tasty! Is this scene from Sideways?
Yes I am working this month in the wine country area where they filmed it : Delightful Santa Barbara county.

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Hey Teammates! Greetings new comers! It was 17F last night here in MS. WTF! Decided to do my run a wee bit later than usual. Got back about an hour ago. Phew... it was 29F when I went out and pretty much stayed cold the whole time, but it was sunny and I was super happy for that. Did 16 miles, my longest run yet. The last two miles 'bout killed me and the cold water bath later was truly painful. But I feel pretty good right now and am about to finish off some special chili my Mom sent home with me along with some fresh corn muffins! Yea! And then a nap. Double yea! |

Those ice baths hurt so good, don't they? I can't think of anything better than a long run and some chili and corn muffins. I may have to change my dinner plans. And congrats on the milestone run. |

Felt good, although a little rough starting off. my usual gym was full with resolutioners. I am ashamed to say it, but come on Feb. I want my gym back! That's half the reason why, even though my plan started last week, I haven't begun swim training yet. Sure, I could say its because I can't afford the gym membership yet, and I can wait a few months before I get back in the pool. But really, I don't want to be a resolutionist. I don't want anyone hating me because I look like crap, swim really slow, and take up your usual locker. I'd much rather do all that in mid-February and have you think I'm just an annoying new person. ![]() |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Are you kidding, no way am I going to the gym in January. The lap lanes are way too crowded. ![]() And I hear you on the people who walk and read magazines. In full makeup. And talking on the cell phone whilst there, wtf? I always feel really out of place at the gym, until I get into the water, and then I'm so in my own head and trying not to drown that I don't notice I'm being passed by some octogenarian doing the breast stroke. If I win the lottery I am so installing an Endless Pool. I guess I should buy a house first. Yeah, that's my lotto list: 1. buy house 2. install endless pool 3. hire hot pool boy 4. enjoy |

That's really awesome. ![]() Today was my first day at the new job, and I didn't get onto BT for over 24 hours. Yikes. Hopefully I find a few minutes here or there in the coming weeks to stay up to speed! |

On a treadmill, if you are running at all, you can't read or you may be spit off the back! All that being said, if you need to repent your sins , go ahead, Tim, we're here for 'ya!

Being a Type A is not easy ![]() So if you see me reading a book on the bike trainer, please don't judge me. I really am working hard! Here's how I see it: If they're reading while on the treadmill or trainer, at least they're still doing something. In other words, they're not sitting on the couch in front of the TV. Oh wait. I used the treadmill tonight, and had the TV on. Whoops. (Sure felt like I was working. LOL) Besides, I'm a big fan of multi-tasking! ![]() There was someone awhile back who'd be on the computer while on the trainer. He'd post messages on BT too. I'd be worried about falling off the bike, if I tried that. ![]() |
