Mornin’, cheetahs :)

Remind me to bring a crowbar the next time I chaperone a dance. So I can pry the pint-sized Romeos who are trying to get their grooves on apart from their dates!

Christine :: that pup was absolutely ADORABLE!! I can understand, though, some family members not being ready.

Linda :: Funny episode! :)

Wendy :: hope you had a good night’s sleep! Glad you can breathe again! Let me know what you think of rescheduling during the week of April 9. Or is a weekend better for you?

Well, in about an hour, I am off to have bloodwork done; later, it will be L&B and possibly a run.

Take care, everyone!
Cathy :)
 
Good morning -

Cathy - you are too funny, a crowbar sounds like it would've been a good idea. :* :7 :*

We are off to the birthday party in Wisconsin in a few hours, so I'm making this short so I can get some kind of a workout in. Not sure what yet. I did an hour power walk last night while DS rode his bike.

Have a great weekend everyone!
Marcia.
 
Good morning cheetahs

Cathy...A crowbar?...I think some pepper spray could also have been effective! Cathy, you are too funny..:)...I am not happy you didn't make the RT...:( I do hope we can get together that weekend at some point. Maybe I can fly in early friday and spend some time with you & Wendy? Thank you very much for the shuttle offer. I will email you about my cat.

Marcia...enjoy the Birthday party today.

Wendy...good job with C&W. I am so bummed you are not going to the RT. Yes, you need to slip in somehow! I hope you got in a good nights sleep.

Christine...the nephew of Tucker sounds like the perfect puppy for you. How incredible. You don't have to ever change your posts...I rarely get tired of listening about dogs...:)...OMG!!! I would take that beautiful puppy in a heartbeat!! Thanks for the pic. Thank you for your thoughts...you are truly an angel as I thought when I met you...:)

Gayle...you are so sweet. I am so happy we will get to meet and yes, try a run together! I am awfully bummed about the cheetahs that won't be there...:(..I think some of them should crash it...or maybe run with us!

Jackie..the standing abs are with Joey. I liked them alot! I love P90X S&A! great news about the 10K only 30 miles away...:)

Linda...the Chest has always been my least favorite body part to work. I did like the abs in that one though. I am so happy your leg/hip is doing better! I swear by that foam roller as mine is also better.

Shelly...it was a great day yesterday when the run went so well. Thanks...about my cat. Good luck with the 10K today. Hey, I'd love to stay with you on the Road Trip!

Sunny...I think Solar nails are just another version of acrylic, using pink and white for a french manicure look. I just hope they don't charge you alot. I will for sure take RT pics for all of you cheetahs.

Susan...we will have to take pics for our loyal cheetahs. I am happy you will be there!

I am doing BBC Full body today. I didn't do the floor legs yesterday so I will do them today..

Have a great day...:)
 
Cheetah Road Trippers!!!

I will see you in August!!!

I made a reservation from Aug 11-12 at one of the RT hotels!

I'm so excited! I get to hang out with Cathy and meet the Cheetah RT'ers as well as others hopefully!!!!

WOOH! }( }( }(
 
YAY WENDY! I can't wait to meet you fine and fit ladies! I canNOT WAIT till August!

Christine-that pup was so cute! And cuddly.

Cathy-so were the hormones flying last night or what? LOL A crowbar....I can imagine it. I remember my school dances and all the makin' out that was going on! lol

Shelly-was it you asking about sharing a room? I booked my room last night at the Marriot (the cheaper of the 2 hotels). I have a friend from the WW boards (we met up at the last RT and she came to Disney with my for my marathon) who is invoice #105. So if indeed that means she's in, she will be in the room with me. But we've got 2 spots left. I'll leave it up in the air until I hear back from SNM about whether she's got a spot! I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!

Ok...I also have to be quick. We're going to a friends' house about an hour away, for the day. They've got 4 kids and we're spending the day playing. I think I'll try my hand at the Rock Wall today! LOL

I was up early again for my workout. An easy 4 mile run followed by Muscle Max. Felt GREAT. Ready for tomorrow's 10 miles!

Gayle


ETA::: Ok...I just got word from SNM that my friend is definitely in for the RT. So that leaves my room with 2 spots! We'll talk more as the next few weeks come!
 
G'morning Cheetahs!! I haven't checked in in a couple days, been busy as usual. And dealing w/ a sick Cheetah cub. :-( Hannah is the sick one, yep, it's strep throat. Poor girl, it hit her fast Thurs night after soccer practice. Took her to the Dr. y'day morning & she's on antibiotics. So far so good for everyone else *knock on wood*. They start spring break & are out of school all next week. We are taking a little trip to St. Louis next Fri & Sat w/ my Mom & doing some fun sightseeing & of course staying in a hotel w/ the pool (that's what the girls care about!).

I got some 20 lb dumbbells (anyone looking for weights, Dick's has them on sale!) & did GS C & T on Thurs w/ my new weights. Woohoo!! I did KPC (cardio conditioning premix), then Butts & Guts floorwork, then abs from BC & MM y'day. And GS BSB today. Yep, I'm feelin' it today!! I haven't run all week, resting my darn shin/ achilles. We'll see how it feels next week.... focusing on weights feels pretty darn good!

Well, kiddos are getting restless. It's rained all week & it's too muddy to go outside. Kiersten has a bday party to go to & then we have church tonight, it's our missions conference weekend.

Congrats to those going on RT & sorry about those that couldn't get in. You can always come visit me! ;-)

Have a great weekend!
 
Hey Ladies –

Yeah, I would take that pup in a heart beat – he looked chock full of personality. But he has an owner already and we are so not ready. We’ll see. Today I think I’ll do Body Max 2 as is. Then it’s off to the local mall for dance tights and shoes for DD14’s musical. Then we have a wine tasting at 4 (pinot noirs only – so it should be tasty!), followed by dinner at Pizza Antiqua (the best pizza I’ve ever had – light on cheese, but full of tasty ingredients). This is with DH’s boss and wife. They are close friends and animal lovers, so we’ll be talking a lot about Tucker and where we go from here.

Cathy – As my girls are not far out of middle school – yeah, I know what you mean! Maybe school policy should be to equip the kids with mild shock collars and every time they get too close -- “ZAP”. Just joking.

Marcia – have fun at your Birthday party! Enjoy your workout you busy lady!

Carole – You’re too sweet. But I am glad you’re running again. I know how much you love it. Wasn’t that pup precious? Look at his paws, though – he’s going to be a big one (although Tuck had big paws – and he wasn’t too big). That’s really the kind of puppy I want, but DH wants a black tri (like Tuck). We’ll see.

Wendy – You gals better have some b-day cake for me! My b-day is August 11th! I’ll toast you from California. I’m so happy you get to meet some of the fabulous Cheetahs!! Wish I were going with y’all - even to the hotel just to meet everyone.

Gayle – have a blast on the Rock Wall! I’ve never tried that and always wanted to!

Jess – Another sick cub? I’m so sorry!! Have a great weekend!

Enjoy your day everyone!!!
 
Good morning cheetahs!

It is another beautiful day her in CA. I so want to go out for a run today,but I know that it would not be a good idea since the ole back as been tad bit sore from all the stepping this week. I think I will do 30 minutes on the elliptical and the ME.

Carole, shelly and Gayle, what hotel are you guys staying in? I want to be where you guys are. I hope you guys will hang out with me. I am getting a little nevous. It is funny how stuff like this get bring out the insecurities in some of us.

Cathy, I so wish you were going, but I may take you up on your offer to pick me up at the airport. I hate being in a new place and not knowing where I am going.


Marcia, enjoy your powerwalk. I may change my elliptical idea and get outside.

Gayle, YAY another cheetah I get to meet. What day are you flying in?



Carole, I am so glad your run went well for you. You are being very smart with your workouts. I am so looking forward to meeting you. Are you staying at the Residence? I need to book my reservations.

Wendy, That is GREAT you will be at the hotel. Which one did you book?


Jess, GREAT workout!!!! I am sorry to hear about your sick little cub. I have a little cub on crutches still. She is a lot better though and hopefully will be off of them by Tuesday or Wednesday.

Christine, Sounds like a great day with pizza and wine tasting. That puppy is SO cute!!!!! Have fun with Body max 2:)


Well ladies, I am off to get some tea and breakfast. Have a great day!

Susan
 
Good Saturday morning ladies!!

Marcia - How many calories a day are you getting? You might try adding a 100 cal and see how you do and work from there. I'm at maintenance and I usually eat anywhere from 1400-2100 cal. I zigzag too with Wednesday and Saturday being higher days.

Sunny - Glad you got your spin class in. Sorry you didn't care for the instructor. Does make a difference in hard you push. Do tell about the striptease class when you do it. Sounds like lots of fun.

Cathy - Sorry you didn't make the cutoff for the RT. We will just have to be a litte quicker the next time. A crowbar, huh? LOL!! Hope bloodwork went well.

Wendy - Glad you felt well enough to do a workout. Yay for you going in August.

Christine - That puppy is just the cutest. It would be hard to resist him and I don't own a pet.

Carole - Hope you had a good workout with Barry today.

Gayle - Good luck with your 10 miles tomorrow.

Jess - Hope Hannah feels better. Know she wants to be ready for the trip and the pool.

Susan - Sorry to hear the back is still bothering you. Enjoy the elliptical.

Shelly - Hope you had a great 10K.

I did my long run - 7 miles. Think I did pretty good keeping the pace between 5.5 - 6.0. I was really looking like a runner today. I had my Zen on my arm and my water bottle at my waist. It felt good being outside. Came back and did Cathe's basic stretch and Kelli Roberts foam roller. Think I need a long hot soak now.

Have a swell Saturday! I'm going to visit DBF and hopefully we can make it out to dinner tonight. He lives about an hour or so away. Don't look forward to the drive but I have to get there.

Jackie
 
Susan...not sure where Gayle is staying. I think she has room for 2 more so maybe you, me and Shelly can get another room together wherever you ladies want to...:)
 
Jess..sorry about Hannah...:(...hope she is better soon. Good job getting the 20 lb wts! Great workout today also.

Christine..sounds like a nice evening with friends tonight...:)..Funny you should mention the paws. I always look there and tell the owners "wow, he is gonna be big!"..Thanks and yes I do love running. Might even tackle a trail tomorrow, but only 6 miles. Enjoy your BM2 workout..

Susan...see my other post above. Gayle booked at the Marriot. I have not booked anything yet, kinda waiting for Shelly...:)...I am not nervous yet...sounds like a good workout today. Hope your back feels better.

Jackie...good job on the 7 miles!! I hope you get dinner out with DBF tonight..:)

I think I might change my mind and do a circuit today using the EXT. I have missed the circuits...:)
 
Carole,
That would be GREAT!!! When I went to the roadtrip 2 years ago, I had a room to myself and I definitley think it would be more fun to share one with you guys. Let's see what Shelly has to say:)

I had a great workout. I did 30 minutes on the elliptical and then did all of ME and the lying leg work from Butts and Gutts. I am off for a shower and then to Target. Let's see if I can get out of there under $100}(

Jackie, 7 miles is a GREAT run!!! Good job on the stretching. I may do some yoga tonight.

I am so excited. Tonight, two of my friends are taking me to the new Adam Sandler movie. I don't usually care for him, but this is a drama and it has Don Cheadle in it. It looks really really good. Then, we are going to a Mexican restaruant called On the Border. It will be fun to get out and be silly with some friends.

I may be back later:)

Susan
 
Shelly,
I almost forgot. Good luck on your 10k today. Let us know how it went:)

Okay, I spent 144.00 at Target, OOPS!!!! That is what happens when I take the kids with me. We had fun there and the girls got to pick something out for getting great report cards. They each picked a doll. Well, I am off to get ready for my movie and dinner. See ya!

Susan
 
Hello all! I'm checking in late today since I spent the morning in
Phoenix. Hopefully this will get read by some of you.

First..... OMG OMG...... I DID IT!!!!
A 10kPR for me and on the day before my B day also:) :) :)

Are you ready for this cheetahs?......
My 10k time

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: 49:34 :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

That's an 8:00 pace!! Definitely healed from my injuries now :7
To be honest, it was a very fast course with lots of downhill portions, but still, I'm jazzed! I took 2nd in my age group.
This course attracts alot of fast runners!

A few personals, I'll catch up with the rest of you tomorrow.
Carole and Susan- Would absolutely LOVE, LOVE to room with you guys!!!!!!!!!! If Gayle's friend can't come maybe she can crash with us too!!! We'll work out the details tomorrow I guess?
I don't mind at all making the reservation for us.

Cathy- You are too sweet with your offer!!!:*
Wendy- I am going to check with the RT coordinators about something.
I want very much for you to take my place in one of the classes
(Dont argue about this with me!!!) I'll hang out with Cathy during that time..... that will be a treat for me!! I'd offer it to Cathy but I know she's been to Cathe's classes before. Anyway, I don't know if it's possible yet but if it is, that's what Ima gonna do!!

That's all for now cheetahbabes... Hi to everyone else and thanks for the well wishes on the race. Your spirit was with me!!!
I'll catch up on personals tomorrow..... promise!

Okay, nothing is certain, but we are going to look at these two puppies tomorrow. They are both show quality, but she prefers a pet home to a show home that won't treat the puppies like a loving family member. Moose in on the left and Taycin on the right. We're not sure which one she wants to keep, so it would be one or the other - and we would not know for a few days. They are both Black Tri's, like Tucker - and not as flashy as the merled pup I posted the other day. DH is really missing Tuck, and everyone is suggesting sooner rather than later for a pup. These guys are 6 weeks, so it would be another 2 before we could pick one up. I also found out that the dog being bred by Tucker's father's breeder is not related. So, waiting for one of those pups won't give us any advantage.

So what do you ladies think? And Carole - look at the paws!!! WOW!

OMG....they are just way CUTE!!!!! You are killing me with these pics!!!!! I think if you are both ready Christine, GO FOR IT. I remember when I lost mt very first dog. I got a wolf cross puppy 3 weeks later and it was one of the best choices I made...:)
 
Susan...I think it would be so fun to stay with you and Shelly....:)..Looks like we can take care of the arrangements tomorrow .Great workout!!...I also try my best to stay out of Target...Enjoy the Adam Sandler movie. I watched the Wedding Singer last week, it was cute and I knew about every song by heart....$144 at Target....WOW!!!

Super Shelly...http://www.wondercliparts.com/congratulations/graphics/congratulation_1.gif[/img] on your awesome PR!!!! And 2nd place!! Yes, I think you are over your injuries...That is such a sweet offer to Wendy...:)..I hope she can do it...

I did HSC and used my EXT for the cardio. A very nice workout and just what I needed...
