have fun at the movie!!! too bad it's a weeknight and it starts too late for us.

60 minute run in the sun this morning, it is the perfect relaxing temperature... but a little warm (for me) for running. Of course if I had have gotten my butt out the door earlier..... Pace was unexpectedly faster than I had planned 6:30/km pace, had planned for 6:45/km pace. Now I just need to be ...

Wow, that is a fantastic story!! You should be proud of the work you're doing!

Vacation is over... need to get back at it. Just an easy 30 min or so on the TM followed by a 10 min incline walk and strength workout.

We bought a badminton set this weekend, the girls are loving it. They spent a lot of Sunday outside. Even took youngest one to the park to play volleyball and throw a football around. Surprisingly oldest DD (the dancer girly girl), loves to play football. She even got a touchdown at school yesterday...

sounds great! Today, washing the car.

Italian eggplant (big, thick and dark purple) or Asian eggplant (small, thin, light purple)? I find that Asian eggplant is easier to cook with and doesn't absorb as much oil as the Italian eggplant. Italian. I think I am just going to try grilling it as I don't have a lot of ingredients in the hous...

WOW!! That's awesome!!! Congratulations!!

So, I decided to be adventurous and bought eggplant yesterday. Anyone have any suggestions on how I should cook it? or a good "healthy" recipe they can share? The key word there is "healthy".

I like the idea of being active for 100days. My pocket book certainly can't afford to do all those activities. Joe would be impressed that "fly fishing" is included on the list. our edited playlist will be a lot less costly! i think we will kick it off with yoga out on the deck tomorrow. ...

We're in! Thanks for bringing this up. I've been challenged getting the kids outside, this list will be helpful. It's on the fridge along with our "log". Let the fun begin!!!!

Treadmill later tonight, likely 30 minutes .... after the hockey game!!! Go Canucks Go!!!

Was supposed to do my run this morning however I was too tired to get up. So I'll have to do it tonight sometime... in between taking kids to dance classes.

Working today, ugh... I am soooo far behind.

Will do an "easy" run later today, legs feel good after yesterdays "LSD". Also need to start incorporate some core workouts.

60 minutes run done on the TM this morning, just over 8.5k for an average speed of 7:00/km. Very slow but still taking it easy, left knee has been bugging me a bit.

Now to enjoy the rest of the day.

5k on the TM this morning, 3rd run of the week. Finally getting back to this after 4 weeks of bronchitis.

I think I am on the injured list. :roll: So no run today. Good thing it is bike season... I will have to dust off my bike and start using it. Oh no! :( :( But yes, dust off that bike!! Taking DD out today, we got her a new bike a couple of weeks ago, she's finally at an age where I can actually get...

The snow is coming down quite heavy here right now, DH's been out since 2am running the snowclearing crews. :? I am getting ready to hit the treadmill for 12km or so. Was supposed to take the girls and my nephew to a movie this afternoon but it isn't looking like it'll happen, maybe some sledding in...

A very snowy day here in Victoria. Kids even had school cancelled. So I will not run today BUT I will ride/spin You've got snow??? :shock: I was watching Washington news last night, and they're getting it too... I think we're next. Well, I wish it'd just hurry up. I need all this to be over by Satu...

Girls and I are all wearing pink, youngest DD "sprayed" her hair pink as well.

No run planned, need to do some strength & stretching today as I am having some issues again with my hip.

I'm another advocate of a buying a TM. I work, long hours at times, and have a busy family life. However, not near as busy as you and I have a tough time getting my runs in. I try not to "pressure" myself into getting 4+ runs in per week because that just adds more stress. I am not a morni...

My 5min run/ 5 min walk went well yesterday, did 60 minutes and had no issues/pain with the ankle afterwards. So it's recovery "run" today, it'll likely be more of a walk since I don't want to overdue it on the ankle. Will also do some strenth, core, and maybe yoga (or hot tub ).

I am no longer able to do this race. Anyone looking for an entry?

Starting the new year off right, Marg! Vacation and a new job!! Congratulations! Have a great vacation!

Today will be an easy day, legs are quite sore from 3 harder days, so I'll likely just do a core workout and some yoga. And, maybe a hot tub to help relax the muscles.

TGIF!!
