Good Morning my long lost friends!!

Or, maybe I should say my long lost self! Sorry I have been MIA, but we have been soooooo busy! I am getting ready for IMAX 2 and pushups so I thought I would start this thread before I got started. Well, now that I have started this, I have no time to talk :). I will see you all in about an hour or so......

Okay sleepy heads.....where in the heck are you??? I am done with my workout, drinking some coffee, and getting ready to take a shower.

Have you all ever seen the video stupid girls by pink? OMG, it is hilarious!! I love the part where she is pretending to be Jessica Simpson when she is washing the car in her bikini. Then, she hikes here leg up in the car and scrubs it. LOL!!!

Good Morning Girls!!

Hey Sara,

Yeah, I seen the video for Stupid Girls and just listen to it again in the car. Love it! So your done with Imax 2 and pushups? How many pushups did you do? I usually get in my workout around noon or so.

I will catch up with you all later.

Hi Girls,

I have been up for a while but just getting on.DH and I got a coffee and drove around for a bit.Then I cleaned up a little b/c when I am done here I want to hop on my treadmill and get my run in.

I haven't seen the video but I have heard the song and I really like it.I like it when she says "where have all the smart people gone"? hahaha
I have the Emily Rose rented for my run.I saw it before but I thought I might watch the parts that I missed when my eyes were closed! LOL

Lori:)
 
Lori,

You are going to watch that Emily Rose? I seen it once, but would not watch it again. Wish I didn't ever see it. I have my reasons.

Well today I am going to do L/G and then 14 mile bike ride into town. I really don't want to wear a helmet as I like to feel "free", but probably should. Do you think pepper spray works on snakes? LOL! I know I will be seeing those ugly things soon.

Hey, girls! What's up?

Sara, it is so good to see you! I read yesterday's thread and noticed that you were missing, great to see you repenting today. ;) :p How is teaching going?

Charlotte and Sara, I haven't see that video. I haven't even heard that song! I know who Pink is at least, I am not too out of it. Gosh, I feel so old! But I have to say that I do think that Jessica Simpson is smart. She is smart enough to be just dumb enough to sell millions of CD's and have a number one ranked t.v. show and make millions more than any of us. I wish I would have thought of it first! :7 Oh, and I live in Indiana, not NC. I have always lived in IN, unfortunately. I love driving through the mountains and I kept thinking what fun it would be to hiking them. DH looked at me like I was nuts. Everything around us is so flat, until you get into southern IN, but it doesn't hold a candle to Virginia.

Lori, what are you running today, 15 miles? :p I did 5 yesterday, the first 2.5 was in 20-30 miles INTO the wind! My legs hurt so bad from running against it today. My glutes are sore, and they are never sore after running. On the way back, it felt funny because the wind was pushing me, I must have been going mph. It was an awesome run!

There was such a beautiful storm yesterday, a little scary but so magestic. We were all watcing it as it went over the ocean and the sea turned this greenish color; it is my new favorite color! :)

Wendy, Marcia, Susan, Vilma I miss you guys! I will try to hop on later and chat with you guys. Have a great day, everybody, and let the endorphins run freely and fantastically!

Good morning:

Sara: 50 PUSHUPS - AWESOME!!!!

Charlotte: Snakes? Like in your house? YUCK!!!! And, I think our millions of mosquitoes are bad.

I got up this morning at 5am and did CTX Step and Intervals. I am going to try and do the CTX series in the morning and then whatever I get in the afternoon is an added bonus for the day. I need to start getting my workouts done in the a.m., there's just too many distractions now that spring is here.

Have a great day and I'll be back soon.

Marcia.
 
Charlotte, there was nothing else there I could grab and I thought it was a good movie. My in-laws own a gas station and they rent movies there so I just go in a grab one every now and then.I need something scary or suspensful or I won't stay on the treadmill!

Oh, I just found a recipe for Biscotti..I am going to make them this afternoon.That would be a great sweet treat and not very high in cals or fat!I may make 2 lots.One with peanut butter (like the recipe calls for) and maybe some chocolate chips and another kind with cranberries! Hopefully they will turn out better then those stupid pancakes I made.I didn't tell you how awful they were.I think I use to push pumpkin puree.
Lori:)
 
Sara, I was thinking about pushups today, but I figured that I am on vaca so I will only run. Maybe do some walking lunges. Perhaps a bit of yoga. And some pilates. And definitely a bike ride. All right. I have just been talked into pushups! :)

Missy
 
Marcia,

No snakes in this house, but I have seen them nearby the house...like on the front walkway just all curled up and my son ran outside that day in almost into the snake. Was a black snake. I have seen copperheads and rattlesnakes here too when I mow and go for a walk/run. Neighbor had a rattlesnake pop out by his mailbox. I seen a baby one in my garage. You have to watch your step around here when you go outside. Last year I got stung by a funky green caterpillar that got my hand alittle puffy and itchy, but that was all. Get stung by ants too...worst then getting stung by a bee! For some reason, bees do not hurt me. A few years ago I had a wasp land on my leg and I instantly reacted by waving by hand at it thinking it was a fly and it stung me. Didn't hurt. Felt like I just touched a thorn. No swelling, but it still starts to itch like mad in a few days.

Sara,

Great job on those pushups! That is really really good!!!!

Lori,

Last time I was on a treadmill, I had a hard time looking at the tv so I can't imagine watching movies, but I get the idea of what you are saying. It is the same as when I run and I let my mind wander and time goes by faster that way, but I have yet to watch a movie on a treadmill.

Charlotte~~
 
Morning All;

Ah Pink's Stupid Girls love the song but have not seen the video yet.

Eating my breakfast as I go through the posts and Missy I'm here :) waving

after breakfast I'll be starting on laundry then do MIC or Step Heat have to wait for my oatmeal to digest some before I start jumping around :)Still feeling a bit groggy that should soon leave once I start moving around my living room w/ Cathe ;)

Today is going to be hectic once my kids come home from school as my girls are getting their dance rectial photos taken so hair and a touch of subtle makeup will do but Tuesday's are always so busy for me as I'm usually out of the house.

Yesterday I did S&H legs after almost 2 yrs and I feel real good this morning so I think I'll be upping my weights when I do it again.

Hope you all have a great day.
 
Missy,

Walking lunges on the beach would be awesome!!!!!! You have to try it and let us know how it goes!

Oh, I hate snakes, too. We had one under our house last summer in the crawl space. Probably after mice. But, I freaked and almost put the house up for sale......

Hi Everyone!

Missy, glad you could stop in again!!! And I am even happier to hear that you bum is sore!:)

Charlotte, Wendy said that samething about running and watching t.v, she thought she would get dizzy.I don't even notice it but I am sure if I "thought" about it, I would notice the same thing.

I just finished running 10 miles.I would like to do some ab work but I don't want to;) and everytime I say that I will do it later, I never do! I would rather get my shower and then go to the store to get the things I need to make my Biscotti. I will post the recipe if they are any good and most of the ingredients,people have in their houses.
DH said to me today that he thought I should spend a few hours a week at the shop.I have to say that it ticked me a little.No one else that owns the business works 40-80 hours a week at another job,plus up there .Sure Michele works there, but she only teaches skating 4 mornings a week, and as a house cleaner.I should have said..."get me a house cleaner and I will go to work".I wouldn't mind going there when I have some free time and if I knew what to do but Im not going up there and doing nothing, b/c I don't know what to do , while my house is in shabbles! There had to get that off my chest...now...off with the sweaty clothes:+

Hi all.

I completed a 50 min interval run at the gym today. I am very happy with myself! :+ When I got home, after I had lunch, I did 100 walking lunges. Now I gotta jump in the shower as the little guy is gonna want to eat soon!

TTYL!:)
 
WOW!!!!:) Thats awesome! And to think you just started! I better pick up my milage! Your soon gonna catch up !:eek:

Hey guys! Here is one pic from our vaca. I have a few others in the pink_fortitude3 link. Time to get in the hot tub now!

Hi Girls!

I don't know if any of you are still around, but I thought I'd do a quick post anyway - in hopes.

It's been a crazy day at work. I'm trying to find new ideas for classes to run so I've been doing lots of research. We're also putting together our summer camp for kids and we get about 600 registrations, so that's a big job. Luckily I have a GREAT assistant!

This time of year, Tuesdays are usually my hill workouts, so I did Spinervals Uphill Grind again - until I can get outside in the mornings and ride the hill by my house over and over and over and over...you get the picture. :)

Missy, I LOVE your pictures. How nice that you can post them while on vacation. I wish I was at the beach right now!!!!

Well, I guess for me that's pretty short, so I better sign off now or it will be long.

> Lori:)


Um...I don't think that you have anything to worry about Lori! That 50 min. interval run was KILLER for me and if you just did some 10 miler yesterday then I am sure I will not be catching up to you any time soon! The only reason I survived is because of the recovery periods! LOL :p

Next run is going to be steady state....The rotation I am doing calls for 45 mins worth...lets see how long I can make it...probably not very long. :7
