  • Love the new avitar Gary, and I think if you get started right now you can reach goal
    Happy Weekend everyone!
  • 4 miles down the snowy bike trail today. After yesterday's hilly plus snowy 7 miles I thought today should have felt easy, because there are no hills on the trail. It actually almost seemed like too much. I did finish though and in a good time as well. I had 15 snowmobiles pass me. Every year I have to learn all over again not to be fearful when they pass. You'd think one of these years they just wouldn't bother me, but nope. I've got a couple days left in Dec., but right now I'm pretty sure tomorrow will be a rest day. Thanks for encouraging me along the way!!

    Dec totals
    4 hall walks
    62 of 54 miles
  • I did 1.4 miles on the elliptical. Only about a tenth of what I wanted to do today, but I got derailed by some requests from my manager, so I spent half the day plugging away on my laptop. Too bad, because it was a beautiful day for running! However, I think I will attempt it tomorrow if I can get up early enough. I'm doing a 4 mile race on Monday night at midnight, so I just want to make sure that if I run tomorrow, I do it early enough in the day that I'll be recovered by Monday night. We'll see!

    46.4/45
  • 3 miles (2 walk/1 run)

    31 miles this month. Not as much as I had wanted, but getting sick kind of got me off track. But I'm back on!
  • 3.1 miles on the elliptical. No long run for me, but it's okay.

    49.5/45

  • Hey Cathy!
    i am doing well. i have 5 teens sleeping over for the NY and I am having fun with the kids for the break. I am looking forward to doing the couch to 5k in the N.Y. Hows by you?

    I tried the C25K day one this moring. I made it 15 min out of the 25 (5 min. WU) so really only 1/2 way through. I really just wanted to see what I was in for. I think this is going to be a challange!
    It is snowing now, but dixie and I are going to head out in a little bit before the teens desend on the house!
  • 4 Miles today to end the year ~ 57/100 miles ~ Dang, under goal...but still WAY better than the .....probably...0 miles I had for December last year!

    Happy Last Day of The Year EVERYONE!

    I am so proud of all of you! Aren't we all lucky to have such great support!

    Well Angie and I took the dogs out early this morning. Instead of going to Starbucks we went a little further, over to Brueggers Bagels, for a change. It was a very nice cool and sunny day here.

    Well off to clean and set up for the party. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
  • Right, it's time for the round up of the year. My goal was to do 125 miles every month, for a total of 1500.

    My December total ended up being 146.7

    and my yearly total was...1671.4

    I think I managed 125 miles or more in 10 months out of 12 (I missed it in February and June)

    Now I just need to decide whether to up the target for 2008...
  • ending the year with 4 miles.
    71/60
  • 10.45 miles today!!!!! Most of that was a stroll on the beach. But still, that's basically my weekly goal in one day! :-)
  • Hadn't posted but got in all my runs.. now I start the One Hour Runner and doing the longer runs (week 4 ) next week..
