Sorry for the triple post!!!!! This computer is acting very funky!
 
Good morning Cheetahs!

Ughhh, another fly by...SORRY!!!! But....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CATHY!!! Have you got any plans?

I had an awesome run this morning! I have no strategy right now other than run as long as I feel like it or for as long as I have time for, with no speed goals and it seems to be working right now. I ran a *very* hilly 6.3 miles in 57:50...which makes that my fastest hilly 10k ever, woohoo, me likey :7. I feflt like I could have kept going, too, but I just ran out of time.

Speaking of running out of time....I've gotta jet, I'm late for work. I hope to catch up with all my Cheetah gals tonight before bowling. Have a great day!
 
Good Morning Cheetahs!

CATHY - http://www.freefever.com/animatedgifs/animated/birthday19.gif
You deserve a wild and crazy day – in a good way! Hope its fantastic!!!!!

Wendy – thanks for starting the thread! Have fun in Florida! I’m jealous, too!!

Sunny – Sounds like NROLW is a great workout!!! Wow! Have fun with iSprints!

Shelly – You’re funny! I haven’t done a HLX/APX circuit in ages – enjoy! Oh DD15 is faster, but she’s a fast horse out of the gate, so I have to work on taming her to a slower trot so she can go longer. Her gym classes never run beyond 1 mile and they are timed.

Wendi – Good job on the run! Don’t you just love it when everything just comes together!

I don’t have a lot of time to workout this morning, so I’m going to do the ETK work and follow it with AOS Firepower 5 alarm (one time through no rests). That will give me a short but intense workout. Then it’s carting spoiled mutt to his new day care.
 
Hey Girls.

I just finished my work out. I opted for the BC/ME combo. OMG, what was I thinking!? LOL That thing kicked my butt all over the place! YIKES!}( I admit to skipping the ab work at the end. I was just too darned tired. I did everything else though! I'm fried! :D

Yes, I am leaving today. Will be home longer then I thought though as we don't plan to leave here until 3pm. I thought with having to drop the dog off at the kennel that DH would want to leave sooner but he is actually going to do that himself beforehand so that helps. :)

I have a list a mile long so I'd better get moving...

I'll be back before I leave though!

MWAH!!!:*
 
Popped in to say "Happy Birthday" to Cathy!!! Enjoy your day! :)

I've done 6.3 miles on the treadmill so far, but never did get that upper weight work in last night. I have that and a stretch to do now.

Sunny ~ Have fun on those stairs!}( Let us know how your friend does.

Shelly ~ You really wanted us to read your posts. LOL! Have fun w/Amy today.

Wendi ~ We ran the same distance. Well, I'm much slower than you! ;-) Good job on your run! I felt like I could have kept going to, but had to wake the kids up for school. Drats! Have a good day at work!

Wendy ~ Good luck getting that list whittled down. Have fun on your trip!

Christine ~ Do you have to be at work earlier? Good job getting something in anyway.

Well, I have to go, but I'll catch up with the goings on y-day's thread in a bit.
 
Good morning cheetahs

Cathy http://www.deepbox.com/media/i/ngBtbuBkhchgBuk.gif[/img]

Sunny...sounds like a tough workout yesterday! Enjoy the iSprints and stair running today.

Shelly...yes, running my old way just feels so much better on my body. I need to get back to 3 days a week though because I think 2 days is actually harder on the body. There is no knee pain when I run now and the hip pain seems to be slowly subsiding. I know if I get some weight off things will be better too. Have fun with Amy's premix and your long EXT workout later...

Wendi..high 5's on the fast run!!

Christine...now that is just weird to change the Presidio run to The Emerald Nuts run???...Yes, we are supposed to be 85 tomorrow!! I only wish it would stay in the 80's for the entire summer!! If I ever get into KB's I will look into that book...very cute cartoon yesterday!

Cathy..Oprah's time was 4:29:20. So without the post mary training Galloway uses 26 weeks, which I think is good for your 1st one. I responded to your yahoo post. There are a few free online training logs, Wendy had posted this one and I like it: http://www.runningahead.com/

Wendy...I bet you will like jump snap a lot better when your shoulder is recovered. I did read about it and thought the price was not bad...It was a great feeling getting the taxes done...The wedding sounds fun for you guys. You can show off your new hair!! Tough workout today...Have a great time!

Kath...Have a GREAT time on your trip!!

Dallas...I have not tried HLKO again...I finally got my hair looking more like I wanted yesterday...as I work with all these hairdressers, it had to look good and they all loved it. I know they were happy I updated my style somewhat!! Good job with 6.3 miles on the TM. So will you be doing the marathon with Cathy??

Lorie..we get the yellow stuff too, from the Oak's...it makes my dark green car not so pretty!!

Jackie...I heard the same thing about getting the refunds earlier if you direct deposited. I did...thanks re my marathons...:)...after my 1st I just got hooked, but the constant training can take a lot out of you. I hope to be back at at least longer distance soon. I agree that a week of Jari is enough...:)

I am doing freestyle legs, abs and 40 min on my EXT

Have a great day...:)
 
Happy Thursday, Cheetahs!

Hope all is well in Cheetah-land. I'm on my way out the door to get some important errands done before work today but I'm pausing to say I hope ya'll have a great day!

AND..... to Miss Cathy:

Good morning Cheetahs!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CATHY!! Hope you have an awesome day!

Dallas - I remember those days when I had to take DS in for allergy testing. He was allergic to dust, trees, milk, grass, etc. Poor thing loved milk too. He had asthma but almost outgrew it. Your poor baby is allergic to chocolate? How can that be? :) Hope all of this testing helps. Good job on your run!

Wendy - Sorry the shoulders couln't handle too much of Jump Snap. Always wondered if it was worth the $$$$. Glad you got out of your funk. Can you hear FL calling your name? Don't know if I will take a vacation this year. Hope I don't go crazy. Have a safe trip.

Christine - Cute pics from the doggie daycare. Yeah, I can see how that could get expensive with parties and the like. I'm LOL at you buying cards and gifts and hats for the birthday parties. Got a chuckle out of the pic too. I'm sure we all know people like that too. }( Hoped the spoiled pooch enjoyed the new daycare.

Cathy - Yeah, gotta love the extra $$$. When I use to get paid for OT, I hated working the hours but loved seeing the paycheck. Unfortunately, I don't get OT any longer - just a little comp time.

Sunny - How was the stair workout? I used my credit on the new itri reverse this month.

Shelly - I would rather be busy most of the time. Glad you did kinda rest. No move yet. Tile installer is having a problem with the coil for the radiant heat. The new one finally came in today. Cabinet maker's truck is in the shop and it's the one he uses for delivering cabinets. So, there's another delay on that. I'll go ahead tomorrow and get the appliances delivered. I'm so hoping everything will be complete in 2 weeks. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. I'm tired of looking at boxes right now. x( Hope you had a good workout. Thought you loved us and that's why you had a triple post. :)

Wendi - I like your attitude about your running. Those are some of the best runs. Great job today!

Carole - I'm glad getting back to your old way of running is helping. I can feel the difference too with only 2 days of running. I've added that 3rd day back too. DBF thinks I'm crazy to even give a full marathon any thought at all. He just doesn't understand it's a way to challenge yourself to do something you never thought possible. Then, there's that feeling of accomplishment that goes along with it. Enjoy your workout today.

Today's workout was iTread #19 Sprints, EXT portion of iTri and 20 minutes of yoga. I did a 5 minute warm up on the EXT and then I let Grace have her way with me. Got in 3.7 miles. I was glad for those recoveries though.

Have a wonderful day!

Hi Lady Cheetahs!

I apologize but I really do not have time for personals. I got lots done as far as packing goes but now I need to pick up around the house (dishes, garbage and the like) before we leave.

If I can, I'll come back one more time but I don't know that I'll have the time.

Have a fantastic weekend everyone! Especially our Birthday Girl, Cathy!:)

I will be coming home late Monday night so you probably won't hear from me again until Tuesday morning.

Ciao 4 now ladies!:*
 
Wendy ~ Don't worry about it! You have enough to keep you busy. We'll miss you! So not crazy about the Jump Snap? I had seen something like that in a catalog. I think I posted the link here? I was interested too, but then forgot about it.

Jackie ~ I'm glad you mentioned your son and allergies. I want to take him to the next appt, but she mentioned allergy shots. The schedule sounds intensive. I don't know that DS needs to go that far??? I just wanted to rule out asthma. He seems to get coughing, etc when he's been running around. She'll switch him to a Pulmicort inhaler instead of taking it through the nebulizer. That will be much easier. :) NIce job on your run! lol'd at Grace having her way with you! Sprinting is not my strong area. Although the iTrains have helped me get to an 8.0 sprint and my regular pace has increased. :) You will love those heated floors!

Carole ~ I don't know 26.2 seems, well, long. LOL! I haven't done much outdoor running. Not that I don't want to, but a matter of convenience w/the kids and the treadmill. I was thinking the half would be a good place to start. Now I see that it's Cathy's first mary as well. What do you think? I just wonder with the kid's sports schedule if training is possible??? Glad you're pain free!!! Woo hoo!!!

Shelly ~ I meant to mention y-day that the ladder work out looks like a doozy! Where did you find that?

Cathy ~ I got those plans. Thanks. It looks doable.:) Can you tell I'm soooo on the fence!? ha ha! I'd like the ACE studying and exam to be out of the way before I commit to training. I know - I'll send my kids away for several months. :7 ;-) Hope you're having an awesome day!

Christine ~ lol'd about the dog b-day parties. Boy, what will they think of next?!??! :eek:

Judy ~ Safe travels to you and your family.

Hi Posh! And to another Cheetah checking in this afternoon.

Oh, I got P90x-back and Biceps, ARX and a stretch done. It was also a very productive day in the house cleaning, laundry, ect dept. Amazing what gets done when you actually stay home!!! :7

ETA: I ordered a Garmin 301. I got a Costco flier y-day (it's a sign) :). Anyway, it was $127 w/tax, but no s/h. I thought that was a good deal?
