Topic: RE: John!
Sorry for responding so late. I did do the 5 mile run on Thanksgiving. I did it in 50 minutes. It was very cold, snowy and windy. Considering these conditions, I am pretty pleased with this time. The race was fun. I did not get a pie. My buddy that ran it in 41 minutes got a pie. The first 1000 people got a pie. Maybe next year
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving.

Topic: Tuesday workout
I worked the arms and shoulders. I finished up with a (4) mile run. The forecast for Thursday is pretty cold. The high is going to be 38. Maybe I should re-consider running the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving.......NOT.

Saturday I worked the arms and shoulders. I am too lazy to post all the exercises
On Sunday I ran 5 miles (49:25). Slow time because of wind and hills.

Welcome Back Dee Dee
Its like riding a bike. Just hop on and enjoy the ride.

Topic: RE: Earl, Mikee, Val
Hey all, I have been in computer hell since I moved. I am up and need to catch up on this board big time. I have been doing more bike riding than anything lately, the gym is set up again, but I have not had much time in it, need to refocus. Thanks for asking.
Topic: Been MIA....
Hey guys - I know I've been MIA but I've been going through some really hard personal times and haven't been able to keep up my working out. If things go as planned I will be able to get back into the gym right after thanksgiving and will be SO READY....I've been running to try and keep my endurance up and to help keep some of the muscle tone there....but I know I've lost some of it.
I guess with being out of the "working out" since the end of September I'm going to basically have to start over with my weights - but I think I'll be able to get back into my normal weight lifting range in a few weeks....maybe a few months depending on how good I feel.
I'm at my goal weight and have been inquiring about plastics to have some of the skin removed......let's keep our fingers crossed about that!
Hopefully I'll get back to where I was soon! I've MISSED the endorphine rush!
