I'm a log lurker by the way. |

Master 2770 Central Kansas | Subject: RE: Mad Manatees Mentor Group - VERY CLOSED!!! Sorry! 4agoodlife - 2012-12-24 3:15 PM I am about an hour northwestish of Wichita. Where is your husband's family? And it was "brisk."KansasMom - 2012-12-24 1:01 PM Heading out for my run, finally. I was hoping it would hit 30 today, but that ain't gonna happen. So I need to get out before the wind picks up and the temperature starts falling. Even though there was a false alarm a month or so ago, my Aunt Flo decided to make a real visit for Christmas. Lovely. So, I went from premenopausal to menopausal (no visit for 6 months) to PMS. Yikes. No wonder I can't sleep. Enjoy? The "brisk" KS weather that is. Where are you at? My husband's family is in KS Aunt Flo...Sorry, nothing to enjoy there. :/ Edited by KansasMom 2012-12-24 4:49 PM |

Veteran 416 Cleveland, Tennessee | Subject: RE: Mad Manatees Mentor Group - VERY CLOSED!!! Sorry! I would hereby like to request the designation as "Arctic Manatee", please. This group inspired me to get off my but and do my Insanity workout, Insanity Plyometric Cardio Circuit. I still felt decent after that and had daylight so decided to go for my run. Screw the dreadmill, lets go outside. Was aiming for a simple mile run, but kept going and felt good. Did 3.5 miles in 34:59 in -22F temps. I was going to take a picture when I returned for prroof but my phone battery died. I will get a pic next time, i think i will go for another run or two while I am on vacation outdoors. I will strive to bring new lows to this group, at least temperature wise. |

That's great! When it hits 0F I am inside workout wise. I work outside for the most part and that is more than enough true cold for me. Only indoor "strength training" today of me do to an unfortunate lack of planning laundry wise. |

Veteran 2441 Western Australia | Subject: RE: Mad Manatees Mentor Group - VERY CLOSED!!! Sorry! Man I go to bed and when I get up you guys have added 4 pages on me, I'm never going to keep up. My husband is already thinking intervention because I'm addicted to this forum. Now if only I could get addicted to training too. 100+ here today and the biting flies are out in force so I'm going to whimp out and do intervals on the dread mill. Merry Christmas everyone. I hope that you have a great day and eat too much and drink too much and get lots of great presents from Santa. He brought me $$ so I can go shopping in the Boxing Day sales (think black Friday but not as good) and get what ever ilike. Edited by StaceyK 2012-12-24 6:38 PM |

It's super helpful if people add their events to their 'planned races' of add them to the top part of their training log. At any rate, and I don't think that we have any Racing Manatees until the 1st.
Most of mine are listed in planned, how do you add to top of training log? |

I have managed to put mine in but I'm not sure that they are in the place that Jayne meant but I did it by going into my training log and in the middle just above your daily entry there is an orange RSS button. Just below that is the word edit. I clicked on the edit button and added them in there and now they show up in the blank box above my training entries. Jayne if this isn't where you meant can you let us know. |

Have you thawed out yet? 30 minutes after my run this afternoon, my arms still looked sun burnt. LOL I barely had enough dexterity in my fingers to press the large cup of coffee on my coffee machine. |

Master 6834 Englewood, Florida | Subject: RE: Mad Manatees Mentor Group - VERY CLOSED!!! Sorry! If you are new to BT, or even if you have been around for a while, I encourage you to poke around. While the forums are really helpful, I have found real value in the logs. Not just the training logs, but the nutrition, equipment, and race logs/Race reports as well. You may want to play around with your "Settings" a bit, if you want more or less privacy. Also, there are some interesting things to be found on here, including this podcast. |

I put my races in the planned races but sometimes the event is a 100k bike ride or Tour de Cure or something that is more of an event than a race, you know? Anyway, if it's somewhere that I can find it, I can keep a weekly listing of who has events on the upcoming weekend.

Jonathan, Johnathan, Stacey, Marcus, silverback25, Chad, Darren, Tom, Erin and Michael are new pod members. Thank you for the summary! Lots of new people. I'm excited to get to know all of you. |

Already determined that I can join a gym near my parents for $25 for the week. I'm too much of a wimp to run outside there now. My lungs couldn't handle it and I don't have the right clothing for that. |
