Susan, Way to go! Great time!

Same goes for you, Workout Queen!

I ran a 5 mile MP run this morning. If I don't get caught up doing other things I'll hit my upper body later today. Tomorrow I plan to be out the door no later than 6:30 for my (final!!!) 20 mile run. I'm looking forward to the taper but not to having the marathon behind me with nothing to train for. I'm considering fully utilizing the training I've done for St. George and run another marathon 8 weeks later. But I won't sign up for it until after I've got St George behind me.....

Jess, ONE MORE WEEK for you!!!

Laurie, Two more weeks for you!

Christine, Three more weeks for you!!!

Carole, Glad to hear that John is progressing. I have a couple of TLT workouts but have never even tried them! It's hard for me to do other DVDs besides Cathe's. I'm really looking forward to the new ones. So glad I preordered way back when. The money is so long gone that it's going to seem like getting a free gift in the mail!

Wendy, Have you figured out the problem with your jogging stroller? I wouldn't say that mine turns easily at all but when I am running with it it just works. Also, when I run on the street it is in a residential area with very wide streets so I stay off the sidewalk. I know it was awhile back when you were asking but I was busy and unable to respond then. Way to go with improving your time!

Adri, Glad to hear your cold is all better. I'm happy it's Saturday too!

Hi to everyone else. I have to go run some errands! Talk to you later.
 
Wendy...great job on your run today!

Workoutqueen...great job on your 10K!!! http://bestsmileys.com/textinbubble2/20.gif[/img]

Christine....for me its the downhills that get my quads...:)...have a good time at Celebrate Saratoga tonight!! 2 century rides!! Impressive....hate those horse flies...you are sweet about the CC's...there wasn't any hurry I just was happy they didn't get lost in the mail...:)

Susan...http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/23/23_30_125.gif[/img] on your 10K...that was so nice your DH did it with you. Enjoy the glow...:)

Adri...you are putting us distance runners to shame with your 45 miler...http://smilies.sofrayt.com/eng/no-no.gif[/img]

Elaine...good luck on your 20 miler tomorrow. I preordered ages ago too...it is like getting a gift! The TLT's are fun, I use them mostly on my recovery weeks...

I did 20 min on my Elliptical and then the TLT. I think I'll have some glute DOMS tomorrow...:)
 
Thanks everybody! I forgot to sign my name last time.


Susan, you did great! Hey, you bet me by about 1 minute and 13 sec, I was right behind you;-). Sounds like we had similar conditions, mine was very hilly also. Great job! I didn't mention the 10K, way too nervous, because it was my first one. Hey, I know what you mean about the free stuff. I had a popsicle and soda. Apparently, right after a race is the best time to have that stuff.

Okay Cheetahs, I guess we all have to sign up for more races?;-)

Enjoy the rest of the day,

Katrina
 
Just checking in once again real quick to say I did PH, not MM as originally planned. Am down another 2 lbs. so it seems I have busted the plateau finally. Woohoo! Now I'm hitting the showers and then it's out with some friends. Have a great night, all! Will catch up in the AM.

Katrina - WAY TO GO!!!

Susan - WONDERFUL JOB!! Great time on a trail run! I like trails better, too - they do not beat up the body as badly!

Carole - I felt bad - once I promise something I have to do it. Celebrate should be fun - all of the kids and misc friends are going, too. So, we'll have a good time.

Well, we ended up going to the Santa Clara Art and Wine Festival, too. It's in a great park in the middle of Santa Clara (outside of San Jose). We bought wind chimes (always wanted them), and found this great guy who makes handmade teak furniture. We've been looking and looking for furniture for our pool area - and WOW! I'm so excited - there's a teak table that seats 6 easily as is, but has hidden leaves - built into the table - that expand and can seat up to twelve. The quality is incredible. I'm sooo excited. We're going to go back tomorrow after Bocci Ball (a charity event for Services for Brain Injury) to order the furniture - he gives a 30% discount if you order there. Check 'em out at www.west-teak.com.
 
Katrina...yes more race sign ups!!!

Cathy..PH is also a tough one in its entirety!..Have a great time tonight and congrats on the plateau break...:)

Christine...please don't feel bad. I already know you are a very kind and considerate cheetah. We will have to see your pool when we get together with the Calif cheetahs, and of course the new furniture...:)
 
Best of wishes your way Elaine.

Great runs Susan and Katrina!

Cathy, Congratulations !

Adri, I think the cold germs came over to me.

I didn't feel good yesterday so instead of a run I did a WHFN Fast Cheetah no pun intended, for an easy workout instead.

Today I had a garage sale with a neighbor. Sold almost everyting. But I have a stuffy nose, sore throat and "achy feeling", so no run today either.

I'm so bummed. I was doing so well on my rotation. It seems like I get to a certain goal and then I slide back with a cold. Do any of you ever take rest weeks? How do you "listen" to your body? Mines been telling me I'm tired all week. (When I'm really tired I start to binge eat instead of rest).

My DH has been out of town at a trade show since last Tuesday and he comes back tomorrow night. Just in time. I need a child break.

Off to bed early tonight. I can't have a cold!

We're under a tornado watch until 1am tonight.

Ah, the Mighty Midwest, were the weather keeps us on our toes. Temps today in the '80s and will be in the low '50s by tomorrow night.

Hello to all Cheetahs!

Nighty night.

Colleen
 
Hi from Maui!!

This will be quick--am on dial-up on my friend's computer, but I just wanted to say a quick hello and say I miss you guys!

Tomorrow is the half and I'm really nervous. I haven't really done any running in a week (I ran 6 miles last Sat, my last "long" run before the half), and have spent this past week just taking it easy and doing some walking (not fitness walking, just sight-seeing walking).

Let's hope I am ready tomorrow :).

Talk to you guys on Friday, when I get home!

Jennifer
