Morning, ladies—

Diana :: so if you & DH were getting tats, what would you have done & where? Good job slogging through the w/out even though you didn’t feel like it. Any word from Jerod?

Angie :: no, it wasn’t distracting at all. I propped my mat under the shade of a tree and did my thing. No bugs. So, what are these BB workouts like? Is this Tony?

Wendy :: cool! You'll have to take pics and show us the new design. See ya @ Pine Beach! :)

Hi to Laura & Nancy! Have a great day, everyone!

~Cathy :)
 
Good Morning Cathy and all others!

I am such a tired girl. I ended up getting to bed late and then was up for 2 hours in the middle of the night again. GRRRR!x( I seriously thought about not going to the race today but I just HAVE TO! I can't miss this so I'll be there! I might be tired but I'll be there and I'll be smiling!:) Oh, and Cathy-I will be wearing a blue sleeveless top w/a black stripe going down each side and black pants.

I'll definately snap off a pic of the new tat and post it for y'all along with pics of the other 2!}(

Have a great morning ladies...BBL!:)
 
Good morning all

Wow - you girls are up early and ready to get at it! Have tons of fun with the race.

I have a full day with no real plans! What a great weekend. Actually, I know Diana doesn't want to hear this, but I still haven't even been in the 5th wheel since we got home last Monday. The family wants to go camping by the river next week, so I'd better get out there and get the linens washed and vacuum and get it re-stocked. I also better get it done today b/c tomorrow the heat and humidity are moving in.x( It actually got cold last night so it is really comfortable this morning and looks like it will be another beautiful day.

Today is rest day for me.:)

Wendy - What a bad time to put in a poor night's sleep. Hopefully the java helped and I'm sure you will have a great day today. You can always make up for you sleep tonight.

Cathy - I'm not sure where the workouts are posted on beachbody, but I'm sure they are there somewhere. I just hate their website so I don't surf around there too much. The link on my e-mail took me right to where they are. There are 5 workouts at 10 minutes each. Tony does 3 of them (stretch, abs, and arms) and Debbie does 2 of them (buns & thighs). The series is called great body guaranteed. I also found an online coupon "sert2dvd" that will take 10% off your order. I'm still looking for another one to save 20%. If I'm successful I'll let you know.:)

Diana - Is today rest day for you? Maybe you might be overtraining if you are not feeling in the mood to workout. Sometimes taking a few days off is just what you need. I know that when I took 4 days off last week, I was really able to bring it when I started back up again and lost a wee bit of weight as well, although not much - but it was better than the gain I expected. This is definitely going to keep me from feeling guilty the next time we go off on vacation.:)

BBL to see how your day went and howdy to all else who follow....

Hi girls!

The race was fun! Cathy and Shelly are awesome! I'm so glad I decided to go despite my lack of sleep. I found the energy for the race some how and ran it in 31.32 mins which is a PR for me so I'm quite happy!:) The food afterwards was a simple but quite yummy chicken sandwich hosted by the Outback. It hit the spot PERFECTLY! :9

I have a couple of pics that I will be putting on my picture trail a little later on. I'll let ya know when they are up. I just got up from a nap and need to do some housework now but I'll BBL for sure!:)
 
Hi Everyone,

I slept in until 9 this morning. It was wonderful too. I have cardio on tap for today also; I'll just have to pick one when I get downstairs.

I took DS to see Rise of the Silver Surfer yesterday. I'm not really into those movies but he liked it. They are just too corny for me "flame on"-although I did laugh quite a bit.

Angie-No word from Jerod. I don't really expect to hear from him, but an email would be nice. So-your cleaning again... My kitchen table is the catch-all. The mail usually piles up all week until I go through it on the weekend. I've only been getting in 4 cardio w/o's per week since starting bootcamp, so I don't think I'm overtraining.

Wendy-Wow, a PR without a good night's sleep, you're awesome. Glad to hear you had a great time. Oh, I can't wait to see your new tattoo.

Cathy-hats off to you too, great job. Can't wait to hear what you have to say about it:)

Have a great day,

Diana
 
Hey, girls!

It was SO great to meet Wendy and our friend Shelly from the cheetahs thread. They *smoked* that race! I crawled in (according to my Garmin) at 33:26, which is a different PR for me – it’s, I believe, the slowest 5K I’ve ever done. *lol* But that’s OK…I just returned to running in ’06 after a looong hiatus (during which I added many lbs.), so I’m content with my slow but steady progress. As I’ve shared with my cheetah buddies, I haven’t been so much into racing mode (as I used to be years ago) because my main goal for now has been to lose the extra 20-odd lbs. I’m carrying. (I've lost 30 since Jan. 06.) But until I get closer to goal, I don’t want to race and get annoyed w/ myself over the numbers. That said, I’m glad I did this one – the amenities were awesome, and of course, meeting Shelly & Wendy was the best part.

Angie :: enjoy your rest day! (Although it sounds like you will be keeping busy doing the “c” word.) Yes – amen, sister – that beachbody site works my NERVES…I agree, it is not easy to find things…Here is a link for anyone else interested: http://www.beachbody.com/jump.jsp?itemType=GATEWAY&itemID=31 I have to say…less than 10 minute workouts??…sounds too good to be true to me. Are you goin’ for it?

Wendy :: you sure ran like hell for somebody functioning on so little sleep! Congrats on the PR!!!

Diana :: I won’t be flaming you re: those movies – it’s based on a comic book, right? I’m not into those, either…My students were outraged when I (jokingly) dissed Spiderman. *lol*

So what're Nancy & Laura up to? Something which involveds CABs, I hope! }( :9 :D

~Cathy :)
 
Cathy-So glad you had a wonderful time at the race. I'm with you-I don't worry too much about my times either. I used to be much faster in my 20's and running all the time. But now I'm in my 40's (did I just say that) I run for the fun and exercise of it.

For tattoos, DH wants a bear on his upper arm and I want something on my shoulder blade, lower back or upper back/neck. I haven't found anything that really grabs me so I may have to make my own like Wendy and Laura did.

I blew off my workout today, I just simply did not feel like working out. I did pay the bills, balance the checkbook, go through the mail etc. I feel good about getting those done.

Happy weekend ladies,

Diana
 
Hey girls! I just checked out the race results. I fibbed about my finish time. It's still a PR but the time was 31.48 not 31.32. OOPS! LOL I also saw my pic and all I can say is EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWW! LOL

Alright...I'm real tired. Time for a little relaxing and then I'm gonna hit that bed HARD!

Night girls!:)
 
Sounds like you girls had an awesome Sunday!! Congrats to you girls on your run.:) I've never been entered into one, and I'm not a runner - yet - so I'm impressed with you both. Great job!!

Cathy - I'm not sure whether or not I'll get those workouts, but it would be a nice add on to other workouts since they are only 10 minutes and maybe I can get DH to do a 10 min. w/o, since he doesn't exercise at all. So, I'm sure I'll bite the bullet soon but I didn't order them today.
You dissed the spiderman movie?? How could you? LOL! I love those movies! I have been a spiderman comic book collector since I was a kid and I'm a huge sci-fi nut so I'll have to take the kids to F4-2. But, since we're going camping this weekend, it won't be for a while. I can't believe how quick the 4th of July is creeping up on us!:eek:

Diana - Sounds like you had a productive rest day. Good for you! That's what Sundays are for. So, even though the 5th wheel is ready to go for round 3, I still have mail that I haven't gone thru - you are way ahead of me. And then there's that darn counter that seems like it always has "stuff" on it - Arg!

Nighty night all - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
