Damage Control....Tuesday

[Fit_mommy]

Good Morning.

Rest day for me today. I decided to play it by ear depending on how I felt when my alarm went off this morning and sleep won! I get an extra 90 mins when I don't work out. I was actually in bed for 8.5 hours last night! It was totally awesome!

Diana:: So will you be trying RICE for the knee first or are you just going to call a doctor? Hopefully it's simple and quick to heal, whatever is wrong.

So Lori comes home from running her 2nd marathon and now thinks she is too good to check in with us? Is that why we haven't seen her yet?

I miss Jacque. She hasn't been around lately. I hope all is well with her.

Gotta jet...play time's over! BBL!

GOOD MORNING!

Yes...for a while there I thought I was to good to check in but then I got bored and said " I should see what everyone is doing". So I am only here out of sheer boredom!

I got home yesterday afternoon but I didn't have a computer until last night and I was just to sleepy. Plus, DD was hogging it.

I went into this marathon with no expectations b/c I didn't train that hard and my right knee had been giving me some grief. I am glad I didn't set a goal b/c I would have been disappointed. I finished this one 10 mins slower then the last but I didn't care. You really can't compare marathon to marathon. Routes are different and you have good days and bad days. I did a few things differently this time but I don't think they helped. I think I ran to fast in the beginning again, I took a gel every hour and I didn't listen to my music. It kind of gets irritating after a while. But when you hit 30k or may be even 28 k, your body starts getting tired! All I wanted was water...no more gatorade...no more gels....just plain water! I decided while I was running that I wasn't doing it anymore...but of course that as changed now. Anyway...I was just happy to have finished. I wasn't over the moon with my time but my placing was good. I think I finished 120/651 females and 30 (something) out of my age group, which I think was 160 or so. I can't really remember. I am taking a nice break though and the next one I train for, I will really be preparing myself for it. My friend finished it in 3:49 and my sister friend smoked it at 3:12!!! Isn't that insane??? They are both lightweights though, bones and skin. Maybe thats what I need to be? LOL

I will bbl! I have to work plus, DS has his speech apt .

Hi ladies,

I've already been up working this morning. I'm supposed to be at work early, but I need to get my w/o in since my day is uber busy.

I'm doing GS BSB, I may have to skip the last couple bicep exercises but can get the majority of it done.

Wendy-Woo Hoo, you got to sleep in! For now I'm trying RICE, but I may go in to the dr. soon anyway. I have a brace I can use. I'm going to go easy on the cardio since that really irritates it.

Lori-I think you did a great job on the marathon. I was planning on telling you what you've already mentioned, that you can't really compare one race to another for the same reasons you mentioned. So, you do want to do another marathon!

Guess I'll do Back & Biceps, and skip shoulders this morning...gotta run! Have a great day ladies!

Lori:: Nice job on the marathon! Finishing one no matter what the time is an accomplishment so you should always be proud!!!!

Diana:: Enjoy GS today and good luck with your knee! I hope you can avoid the dr. visit!

 

[Fit_mommy]

Wow, I can't believe it's noon already! The morning went by fast!

I am going to be ordering a few things from Collage today. I want to buy Criss Cross Cardio so that I can send it back to Net Flixx before my DH never lets me rent another work out vid from there again . I also am ordering 3 Kimberly Spreen k/b dvds. I've been dying to try her stuff and now seems like as good a time as any! It'll satiate my need for new stuff while I wait for the Cathe's to arrive!

Hope everyone is doing well and just busy busy.

I will pop back in later to see what's going on!

Ciao!

Laura:: I am clueless about sports rivalries both friendly and mean. I am not a sports girl. I tolerate some sports once in a while for my husband but that's about it. My best girlfriend as well as my DH are Devils' hockey fans. She gets free Devil's tickets and will occasionally take him to a game. They want me to come to one but I won't go. Go knock yourselves out I tell them. I'd rather stay home and clean the house!
