Anyone else keep getting database errors while trying to load this thread? Weird.
I feel so behind, it's hard to catch up with this thread sometimes if I miss a day. I finished the early morning workout of horrors challenge yesterday. I woke up at 7 on Thursday (early for me) and went hiking with a friend. We went at a slower pace because it was incredibly steep and I was supposed to be resting for my long run, but I got in a good 2 hours of identifying plants in the woods, so I'm happy.
I also woke up at 6 this morning (6!!) for my long run. While it was pretty rough (my running buddy is struggling with an injury and then TRIPPED during the first mile) it was a perfect day for running, and we finished all 20 miles. I actually switched from sports drinks to coconut water and I think it helped me a lot. I felt pretty good towards the end, just sore. Now I just have to deal with taper madness. Ugh. Think I'm about to go on a fresh fruits and veggies kick.
I have that 5k on Sunday too, and while I was thinking of walking it to recover (we have a walking team or a running team) I think I'm gonna give running it (sloooowly) a shot. One of my good friends is running it as their first 5k, so I don't want to miss that.
K2, I know I'm late to the party, but you really look amazing and happy! Love the pics.
peanutt, haha, crap in a pan sounds delightful. In fact, I think I only know how to make crap in a pan. Who needs recipes?
Oh
Jeanettey, noooooo. So sorry to hear about your injury. Tendons are not something to mess with. Make sure you rehab those suckers so you can be back on your feet pain-free. Ice companies should pay me because I'm always talking about icing stuff, but it really works. Glad you're feeling a bit more positive today
Chesh, I loooove yoga ball desk chairs. They're great if you spend a lot of time at a desk/computer. Just don't read one of MsB's posts, start laughing and fall off (or maybe I'm just a clutz).
josey, I think the shorter days make it easier to want to overindulge as well. There are lots of healthy fall/winter foods too, I just think that people like an excuse to indulge. I'm getting excited for soup/stew season though! My crockpot is gonna be busy.
rainbow, I want to put that picture of Bob on my fridge!
Dreamer, yay for smaller clothes, and I'm loving your new avatar.
Ok, I'm going to go make dinner and relax a bit. Ya'll have got me thinking about crap in a pan Zucchini. Yum.
