    **Cheetahs Long Run Friday 1/16***

    Laura...Enjoy your rest day. Brighton...I think your thoughts on putting off the mary til Sept are good. Marathon training can be very grueling...:)...I bet you will do great with the HM in March. I have found that injuries can too play a role in depression (which can start a nasty cycle of bad...

    **Cheetahs Long Run Friday 1/16***

    Wendy..Thanks...:)...I agree that Amy does over do the reps a bit making Slo Mo a bit more endurance based. I just liked the different exercises she does that I had not seen before.

    **Cheetahs Long Run Friday 1/16***

    Good morning cheetahs Wendy...Thank re: my intervals. I am happy to be getting some speed back! Are Amy's new workouts done yet? Good job with the iTread yesterday. Hope you like Amy's slow Mo upper split better than the premix. Judy...11 miles on the TM sounds tough. Enjoy your day...

    CHEETAHS: Conquering the Hills

    Good morning cheetahs Laura...That is great your running is helping with Cathe cardios. When I first did a P90X rotation I did running with it. It didn't take quite 2 hours a day as I was only running 3 days a week doing 3 miles 2 day's and a longer run on sunday when the rotation calls for a...

    ***Cheetahs***Hump Day Wednesday

    Good morning cheetahs Wendy...Sorry you were disappointed in Amy's premix of Slo mo. I never did the premixes but the whole section, not bad but not as heavy as I thought the workouts would be. I will be doing GS upper for a few weeks so C&B today. I will probably not order any of Amy's new...

    ***CHEETAHS***In the Groove

    Good morning cheetahs Laura...thanks re: my nieces loss. I agree it is always a hard thing to go through. I like a lot of the pro teams. Yes, the Cowboys and also the Raiders as that was my Dad's team (they have kinda sucked the last few years!!) but I enjoying watching most games. There are a...

    ~*~CHEETAH's Magically Delicious MONDAY~*~

    Good morning cheetahs Posh...Sorry for the CLX delay...Yeah these playoffs didn't go quite the way the experts thought!! I find that amusing...:)..Pittsburgh looked pretty strong yesterday but to me it is another guess as to who will go to the SB! Thanks re: your thought on my niece. Most of us...

    CHEETAHS: Sleepy Sunday

    Cathy..It was hard on my niece and after a fairly good night last night, today is bad. Quite common as you tend to beat yourself up over the guilt, you waited to long to do it, she was in so much pain, etc. The guilt ebbs away but it does take time. I have her in my prayers. The 18 was great in...

    CHEETAHS: Sleepy Sunday

    Good morning cheetahs Cathy...it was weird about the HRM fluke. I will see how it goes today. That is great about getting good grades in Potassium. I have adjusted my weight on the software so now sometimes it is hard to get in all the calories...Good job with the run and Squeeze workout...

    *Cheetahs* Winter Wonderland Saturday

    Good morning cheetahs Cathy...sounds like a great Squeeze workout. Truth be told Kramer has always been my fav of the Seinfeld cast. DH is quite funny to watch when he gets scared...:)..The tempo run was fun but my HR was all over the place. Either it was just the remnants of cold, overtraining...

    **CHEETAHS**Feeling HOT on Friday

    Good morning cheetahs Cathy...thanks re: my interval session...:)...LOL about Napa. I would be so thrilled to have you and Christine ride a bit with me. Glad you got a bit of DOMS from the new Squeeze workout. Yeah, I can just walk into a room where DH is and say his name and he jumps (rather...

    ~*~CHEETAH'S DOM-ilicious Thursday~*~

    Good morning cheetahs Cathy...the 4 miles of intervals went well. I seem to be staying between an 8:35-8:45 pace for intervals. Glad you are enjoying the oils. I forgot I also use one occasionally to help sleep, it is called "Peace & Calming" and you put in on the bottom of your feet before...

    •• ::: CHEETAHS ::: •• Get pumped this hump day!

    Good morning cheetahs Cathy...I don't remember which Powerstrikes I have and it was good I just prefer other KB workouts. I am not sure I have ever known a 1st time marathoner to say they'd run another one at about 20 miles!! I did say to my sister after my 1st "when is the next one?" but that...

    •• CHEETAHS •• Clean, mean runnin' machines Tuesday

    Good morning cheetahs Cathy...Cool, you got some good workouts. Sounds like Bodystrikes was a great one for you. I have one of their workouts. Thank you so much for your sweet compliment about my running, I have been feeling really good. Say "Hi" to Donna for me. I have never jumped halfway...

    •• CHEETAHS •• Back in the Zone Monday

    Brighton...I don't think you sound new agey at all. My feeling have always been "whatever works". Your shoes should be fine, so the knee tweak could have just been from the snow and uneven surfaces. I get new shoes usually about 300 miles or about 3 months if I am running a lot. I normally run...

    Good morning cheetahs Cathy...You have me smiling with the Boston talk...:D. Somehow those hard runs seem to make you feel better the next day...Sorry you are feeling a bit of the crud. So, some new workouts on the way? For Omega 3, Flax seed. I also use a Smart Balance spread that has the...

    ***Sleepy Sunday for the CHEETAHS***

    Shelly...I would like to do that marathon with you! Thanks, I do feel on the mend but the 16 miles was tough. I did take it easy and feel a lot better after a shower! LMBO about DH moaning on the couch!!...:D...Have fun with PLB. Cathy...LOL is right about that TM. Most likely why my FIL is not...
