Due to the fact the date today is the 13th of Friday, I suggest ALL training be suspended! Unless you have a black cat or a pinch of salt to throw at the Boogie Man!

PS I just noticed that there are 666 people on this site right now 1318 hrs as of now!

I avoid the number 13 at all costs.  But because I never know the date, I trained while not realizing it was Friday the 13th until I saw this thread.  Otherwise, I probably would've skipped it, LOL.

I trained.  Swam and ran.  I have to go to work in a little while and deal with all the crazies and craziness that can come on Friday the 13th, so I figured why not risk it and train too.

I attempted a run this morning but ended up walking thanks to being sick. The sickness crept up yesterday, so I don't think it was a 13th issue. Just crappy!

I'm with trixie. I love the number 13. It was, as often as I could get it, my number on various athletic teams. It's also the age difference between the suitor and me. And this morning I FOUND MY PASSPORT just minutes before I was going to bite the bullet and go apply for a new one (and pay extra to have it expedited). Unlucky day? I don't think so!

I swam this morning and will bike this evening.

Speaking as someone who works for a public defender and divorce lawyer, and having many friends who are are police/emts/fire, Friday the 13rh is not a particularly bad day for things that happen. Fulls moons are another story...

Plus I even got an almost full ride scholarship offer to law school today so I am not going to complain about Friday the 13th.

I love the number 13, even have it tattooed on myself, so naturally I will be training today.

I love Friday the 13th usually. I got married on the 13th, been married for 13 years and my daughter was born on Friday the 13th. Today is her sixth birthday. BUT, got a call this afternoon from my son's teacher. He got hit in the face with a boomarang while on a field trip to the state capital which is an hour and a half away. Ended up spending an hour in the ER to make sure son did not need stitches (he didn't). We still managed to have a party and my son still wants to do his first ever triathlon tomorrow. We'll see how his lip looks.

I was taking a ride today in minneapolis. And me and my friend were coming home, and as we passed a bar this white van was pulling out. As they saw us coming they threw it in reverse and the passanger took off his seatbelt and started to get out. We boosted! Thought we were gonna get kidnapped... Later as we were passing a man in a park he reached into has jacket like he was going for a gun when we rode by. It was disgruntling on friday 13.

I met my wife on Friday the 13th. Ever since then, it's okay if a black cat (or a red bike)crosses my path.

Funny - going by this thread, Friday the 13th seems to be the day to meet spouses, significant others and life partners...

I think we should start a grass roots campaign to make Friday the 13th the new Valentines Day.  Anyone? Anyone?

I married my little bride on Feb, 13 in 1998 and it was on a Friday. So Friday the 13 is a good day for me.
