I do run outside in the winter and I am in western NY also. BUT today I had an 11 miler on the schedule with 4 degrees and windchill of -15. I opted for the treadmill. Next week I am running a half marathon in Central Park, and I am just praying for at least temps in the30's and no wind.

I am back to report that I did 11 miles on the TM while watching Sex And The City Movie. Happy Dance!!!!!

Wendy- I am not sure yet, I am thinking a movie would be nice for a change. I may ask Nemo ;) for a suggestion.

Hi Cheetahs As the title indicates, I am doing a long run today, ( long for me 11 miles) It will be the last long run before the race. And it will be on the TM because of a wind chill and frigid temp advisory. After the run, and a few domestic chores and such DH and I will start the...

I am back for a minute. Wendy- I would stay in tonight too. In fact after i pick up DS15 from practice, we are in for the evening. I wonder if the reception will be where your wedding was? DBF is a gem; DD met him at the wedding of the parents of the baby being baptized. Does that make any...

Hi Friends Laura- Thank you for getting us started. good choice for a title today;) Your run sounded good yesterday a warm up and steady hill. Even though I only had to do two miles yesterday I made sure one of them was a steady medium grade hill. Karen- congratulations on getting the...

Hi again :) I wanted to share my workout. I did a 7.5 mile out door run. hilly. the first 1.5 was warm up. then 4 miles at tempo ( I lost a bit on the hills butgained on the down hills) then 2 miles easy pace and home to stretch. Wendi- Holy-smokes-you-are-fast! 7 miles in 62"! It must be...

Hi cheetahs Wendi- I am so relieved that you understand and are not upset with the change in plans. Thank you! Wendy- The baptism I believe is in Westwood? I have to double check. I was interested in your reply to Laura about recovery from easy paced runs versus speed/races. It makes sense to...

hi ladies Karen- good going on the Kb workout. The right dog will come along. It is hard to wait though. Brighton- ooh pushy parents of kids are soooo annoying. We have seen too much of it over the years. Jackie- I hope your your friend is doing better in the hospital. Wendy- good run...

Good Morning early birds and all who follow, Wendi- Holy Horse Feathers! 3,000 calories for and 8 hour work day? I hope you had dessert or an adult beverage:eek: after that burn. I was thinking about you last night after I left my computer. I forgot to give you a Hello on my Cheetah post...

Wendy- Way to go with the 30#KB!

I Heart Cheetahs! Hi there everyone :) Posting on the weekend is usually once or not at all. I am happy to make it here on a Sunday evening. Laura- I really appreciated your explanation of your choice to live in Uganda. I thought you may have started out as missionaries. You are...

No problemo Laura! Wendy- Nope! I had to run inside . There was to much ice on the roads. I got in a steady 9 miler on the TM, even though I really wanted to run outside. It was just not safe to do so. Ok, here is the wine article I was looking for in the Wall Street Journal: It is called...

Hi Cheetahs! Laura- congratulations on getting in 10 hot miles! I felt like 10 for me was a turning point in my confidence. I'll take that heat today as I am doing 8 miles possibly outside in cold windy conditions. If it is too windy though I'm coming back in and using the TM. Jackie- So...

Fly by here. DS21 and I are off to visit the grandparents ( DH's parents) for lunch. Karen- I am so sorry that your parents did not have wills. What a big annoyance that is to you. I hope when this clears your and your Dad immediately get your wills taken care of. Did you get the BIG dog...

Hi Cheetahs :D Cathy- Nice thread title today. A little enthusiasm is needed here. DTeens are not wanting to get up for school this week. Have fun with the new WO viewing tonight. Christine- Installing hardwoods is a pain but gosh, they are so beautiful when they are done. How long is the...

Hi Friends I have a few minutes here before I put on my taxi driver hat and skeddadle. Thank you all for the birthday wishes for Dad. We lingered over a nice lunch. When a I went back to look at my training plan I saw that it said 5 miles speed work: 2 x 1600 @ 9:06 pace with 800 jogs...

Hi Friends :) Today will have to be a quickie again, but I just have check up on The Great and Wonderful Cheetahs. My Dad is having a birthday today. He is 87 years young. I will have lunch with him as week night dinners are tough with the kids' homework. ( Mid terms are very close) We...

Hi Cheetahs- It has been busy here, but I do not want to share on a public forum. All is well though and hopefully I will get to personals later today or tomorrow. I just want to say one thing: JACKIE- You are one Hot Mama!!!! And your DBF is very handsome!

It looks lie we are all trying to get back to our baseline healthy food choices. Stepping on the scale only set me back 3 pounds, but it is time to kick the bad choices out the window. I only skimmed yesterdays thread quickly this morning so personals will be sketchy. Cathy- Did I read...
