Hey Cousins!
Ok, now I'm going to try to catch up on what I missed... Thanks to everyone for the messages of encouragement. I'm glad to hear it wasn't so obvious I looked like I had beamed down from outer space!
I did 3 mi this morning. Julie knows it has to have been on the TM. We have serious snow. I think we got almost 12 inches between two storms, and it really shows.
Jeanne -- are you psychic or what?! I too have decided to spend 6 mos getting smaller, and then work harder on the training. My plan is to make my shorter wogs around 3 mi, and do 5 for long. I think at that rate I can still lose weight. We shall see! I also think if you want to go Goofy, you should go for it! I know you can do it if you do the training! I hppe John is doing better. I know he didn't want to stop when he did, but I'm glad he took their advice!
Julie -- I wish I was more with it at the Pop Meet. There was so much going on...anyway, it was great to chat with you. Dennis is doing a Half in Boston in a few months. If you're interested, I'll find out more info -- since you're looking for an event! I do have another thought for a relatively close race that might interest you -- Princessrunner (Lisa) does the Beach to Beacon every year. It's on the Maine coast and is supposed to be a really fun race. It is hard to get moving after such a big accomplishment. Be gentle with yourself, you'll run again when it feels right (and when there isn't a blizzard outside!
Richard -- Your consolation race sounds totally awesome! I am so glad you had a great time! And I really hope we will see you next year at the Pop Meet -- we'd love to meet you in person!
Corinna -- You are the tough guy for starting the race! After all you had been through, to come and finish with a great time is fantastic! Next year, we are going to have to take in our hula skirts for the Pop Meet, we are going to be skinny minnies!
Jen -- Unlike a certain Ms. Spears, I am ever so eager for your comeback!It's great to see you posting again, and it was great to see you at the Pop Meet!
Christa -- Sorry we missed you this year, but psyched you'll be there for 2010!
Debra -- I'm so sorry to hear about your FIL, but so glad he is better! I really hope next year you can make the race completely all about you. After all you've been through (still waiting for some of those stories...), you deserve it! Oh, and you have to answer a question which is perplexing my dh -- why were you wearing a bowling shirt? I assumed it was a fashion statement, but it has him in a tizzy as a former collegiate bowler. He actually follows pro bowling, inquiring minds and all that.
Mel -- Are you a Jamie fan, too? I love Diana Gabaldon, I just cringe at the long wait times between tomes. I just know I'm going to forget something I really need to know to get the full depth.
Nancy -- I'm sorry I missed you at the Pop Meet, maybe next year?
JenB -- I think you said this on another thread, but it's still resonating with me -- having 2010 in my sights is actually making me get back into working and will keep me going for another year. Priceless!
Anyone else watching the last episodes of Battlestar Galactica? My head hurts I'm so confused...
