Rabbits Rabbits Rabbits.

Suppose to be 10km this morning, but I was too slow so just squeaked out 9.1. Another 5km in my FF's after work will make it up. Hips and core at lunch.

Chilly is right - it is freezing in my office. I have two sweaters on. Feels like the AC has been cranked all weekend. Where is maintenance?

Will go for a run after work today to make up for the run I missed yesterday. My knee is still bugging me a bit.

Happy Monday everyone

First day of June and I have to wear long sleeves?!?!

Anyways, my workout kept me warm 4 x 200, 2 x 400, 1 x 800, 2 x 400, 4 x 200, all with equal distance recovery.

Legs felt a bit dead to start, but after the first couple 200s, I managed to hit target pace for everything but the 800. That was supposed to be done in 2:30. I went through 400 on pace but lost 4 seconds on the second lap.

Something to work on I guess.

Have a great week everyone.

Legs feel heavy after a big weekend. Easy 90 minute ride scheduled for this evening, that'll loosen up my legs, no worries!

Monday....another exciting week at work. Is it Friday yet?

Legs feel good but am taking a rest day. Work will be a crazy one!

Bike and a run today, along with that pesky work thing.

Have a great day everyone,

Back at it today ... cross training workout this morning. I actually love doing weight work! Dog walk coming up later today - 5K. The Elton John / Billy Joel concert tonight. I have a feeling I will be sleeping through my morning run tomorrow

I wondered the same thing - I was even wearing tights! 8km and change done.

It is very BBRRRRReezy here! Holy Moly!

CT Scan with contrast done. The dye makes you feel like you peed your pants. How odd is that?? :shock:

I have a sitter in as I am supposed to be at work but am covered until 1:00.
A quick breakfast and I am hitting the gym while I am still technically healthy!!

Happy Monday all!

Since I rested yesterday (ie lots of family stuff to do) I plan on getting 7.5km in today (once around the block) but it'll have to wait until after work.

I feel really good for have run my LSD on Saturday - guess I'm getting in better shape!

And it's actually warmer here than it was yesterday, or maybe just less wind ... crazy weather!

Darth Tater · Postby **Darth Tater** » Mon Jun 01, 2009 8:57 am

Biked to work, and got about 25 minutes of weights done before heading up to the office.

Have a good one y'all!

Dani--My thoughts are with you. Let's hope for the best.

I caught a laryngitis (hope the spelling is right!). I am pretty much voiceless today. I did my strength and core exercises when I got up. That will probably be my workout for the day.

BJH · Postby **BJH** » Mon Jun 01, 2009 9:03 am

30 minute run this morning with 15 mintues at tempo. Or supposed to be tempo. I had a hard time getting my HR up.

I may have been tired from 8 hours of backyard shed building yesterday.

"rest" day.

Today I have a million errands to do, and this afternoon an appointment with a recruiter. And supposedly the moving truck actually made its way from Edmonton to Vancouver over the weekend, so I will be harassing them to come deliver ASAP. :roll:

CinC · Postby **CinC** » Mon Jun 01, 2009 9:29 am

had a pretty good race yesterday.....

post race, did a 1500m swim at the Y before meeting up with Wayne, Collette and Mike for lunch

Today - not sure what I'll do....was supposed to be a coached swim, but our coach had to reschedule. My bike is at Bow getting a tune up....hmm...what to do, what to do.....

Yeah..that's what I was thinking when the alarm went off. These weeks lately have been way too stressful.

Dani - Thinking about you and looking forward to that party announcement.

Today's the start of my new self-challenge - 30 hours of activity in the month of June. 20 hours must be either bike or run. Need something to keep me going now that I've started back at it, especially since I tend to slack off during the summer (warm) months.

Today is a swim day, and I hope to also add in a core workout this evening. If I can get all the laundry folded at a decent hour. :roll:

Discovered this morning that my parking lot is sold out of spots for the month... why did I leave it to the last minute? This usually isn't a problem but our onsite parking lot had its gate repaired so the lot is no longer "free". I was thinking about commuting and if the other local site is full, I will be commuting by bike or bus (not crazy about this) starting tomorrow!

I have some errands after work and then would love to run some hills but I will likely head home, get my bike ready. I should go for a spin to see how long it will take me to ride to work.

And I will have to go to bed earlier!

Oh, and today is the start of my training plan for Run for the Toad!! YES, I will be trained for this one if it kills me. Today is a rest day.

I may switch up the days and will add my commute as cross training since it will be approx. 30 km/day.

Back to work.....

Legs are feeling a bit tight after yesterday's LSD. Went to the gym at lunch and did the circuit and some core work and they're feeling better for it.
First day of June already! Sheesh :roll:

Good luck with getting your furniture Holly. It's about time :evil:

I was wondering if you're connected to LinkedIn - just a thought if you're not because 1 or 2 professional connections can lead to so many more through that sort of site.

ugh - picked the wrong 6:00 boot camp class today - should have gone this morning. it's a hot one today and we are inundated with smoke from a forest fire. maybe a swim instead.

thinking of you Dani - that contrast feeling is bizarre on a CT. glad they warn ahead of time.

how did it get to be June already?

Thanks for the reminder about "linkedIn", I need to do that.

Rest Day for me. Will take Grandpuppy for a walk though, if the rain goes away! And will bake some banana bran muffins too!

Chilly Monday!
