Asalzwed - 2012-10-16 6:53 AM Too many ducks so little time. Woah, don't say that one too fast 

Well. Eff-a-duck.

Okay. Totally random Yanti self-obsessed thought time (oh wait, that's not random and that's not a specific time, it's all the time).

In an inspire, someone said I'll probably outlive everyone despite always having these crazy illnesses.

I just realized that my dad is turning 83 in a couple of weeks and he's literally had one life-threatening, hospitalizing episode (illnesses, injuries, infections, everything in between) after another since he was my age, so almost 50 years.

AAAAAAAH DEAR GOD PLEASE DON'T LET THAT BE ME

Hm. So maybe God, whomever or however God may be, is trying to tell me something. And it's probably not that I won't die until I'm a thorough curmudgeon believing I've got complete control of the universe and everyone in it.

I've watched my dad horribly mismanage all of his illnesses (chronic and acute emergent episodes), cherry-pick doctors AND cherry-pick from what they tell him, and exacerbate his conditions time and time again.

This is all sounding horribly familiar.

did you answer your own question...???

Yanti - you are ahving...issues...now, but it too will pass! your lifestyle is healthy and eventually, you'll work you way out of this all... IF YOU REST  and DONT PUSH IT!  I'm offically a Dr. (hey, PharmD counts for something, right?!) so this is official advice: TAKE IT EASY, SISTER!!!

You and everyone else would be proud of me. I decided to skip my swim this morning (it's more important to do the bike ride later). Also, I realized I'm ONE week out of the ER. One.

does her shirt say 'bikehore?!" ahahahaha!!

DOCTOR MAMADUCK!!!

8th down - MY MAN MACCA!  Heard from him on Facebook (I'm a VIP member of something!) and said it was a tough day at the office.  He felt flat throughout, couldn't get his power numbers up at all so called it a day.

BUT his coach said he has fire in his eyes he's not giving up just yet!  He's going to re-evaluate his training as he did some different things, particularly altitude training.  Also had a longer taper I think.  Plus spent the previous year focussing on short distance to not get selected for the Olympics.

so when I'm not loving Lance, I'm loving Macca.  "swoon"

Oh Manatees.... - Thanks Yanti for the fifth one - that was so beautiful what you said.

2nd thumbnail down on the left; Faris Al-Sultan. 

Sweltering hot. I spent way too long this morning looking at pictures of him.

This is how I feel about Faris: "I hate myself for loving you ... "

Nope.  Just like someone who is less sure of her ability than are her admirers .

ooooooooh, I'm biting my tongue to avoid an inappropriate comment...   MUST. RESIST.

You are absolutely correct. But I sometimes sway from your PIP to mine (Panic! Impatience, Ponder)

And to the comment Tracy made, yeah, I mean of course there are SOME metrics here. I'd ultimately like to run a sub 2:44 marathon, get my HM down to 89 minutes, then 85, then sub 80. My 5K is not something I focus on too much but it would be nice to get in the 18 minutes.

I just don't like the idea of saying, "My goal is a xx:xx this race" because I just think there are so many variables. 

I have to say again that I wish this group wasn't so far flung around the world (although that is part of what makes everyone so interesting!) because it would be so incredibly fun to get together for a run or bike or just for the heck of it.  Manatees rock!

Salty - since I don't have any qualifications whatsoever to make any training recommendations, I won't.  I will just say trust your instincts, believe in yourself and have faith in your goals.  If we want something bad enough, we will find a way to achieve it or to do the very best we can short of achieving it.  Also, you get to run at some really cool places!

Reece - you are da man running in 20-30 mph winds. Those last 1.6 miles: fuggetaboudit.

Kate and Anne Marie - good to see you pop in and say hi!

Kirsten - your lightbulb and ding ding ding ding comment made me laugh

Yanti - sounds like you and Jim have your hands full with the Funny Farm.  Please continue to recover and rest, or at least kinda rest.  I realize there is no keeping you down!  

Jo - awesome swim!  Love how you were motivated by Bethann, went to do a workout you didn't feel like doing and then had a great time while doing it. That's the stuff!

Felicia - glad to hear you aren't too sore from your race that that the knee pain has subsided.

My apologies if I missed anyone or anything.  Posts kinda exploded since the last time I was on yesterday!

This, too, is an Ultimate Dream, although I would fear greatly for whatever locale we would be in and its inhabitants.

Let's all just go ice skating in Indonesia 

YEEEEAAAAAAAH

They only have it around December/New Year holiday time, though.

We could put a serious frickin' dent even in a city the size of Jakarta (16 million metro, 30 million greater)

Actually. I have only gone through one pair. As in the pair is retired. But they aren't totally retired, they are in a drawer at my desk just in case. I do have about 8 pair (all different styles) in rotation. Don't worry, I'm not a hoarder or anything. I just think the large rotation and the fact I can squeeze a lot of miles out of a pair helps. I do have a pair that are about at their end so I am going to need to purchase some more and probably another pair of racing flats as mine are getting up there. 

*snerk*

except Powerbar stuff...

Exxxcuuuusseee me, I tried to pawn that off on you. It's not my fault you have tiny little pockets. 

I would like to meet Mr. Pockets and enjoy your pineapple.

Wrong thread?
