Very un-successful day of running!
Week #1; Thursday:
Well, I think I am gonna have to start either 1) literally fighting for the treadmill at 3:15 pm; or 2) start running at lunch. Either way, something has got to give; I hate being resigned to that stupid elliptical machine.
Anyway, I ran/walked/scooted three miles on the elliptical machine until getting frustrated and moving to the leg press. I did about 1,000,000 sit ups waiting for the treadmills to free up, but alas, it was not in the cards for me to run today.
On another, happier note, we have several new running club prospects 
Word is getting ’round fast about our little healthy bunch club.
I was thinking (or maybe hoping) that as the race time got closer, we could meet periodically for team runs/walks. Oh, and anyone who wants a personalized training calendar can make one according to projected race time and individual weekly training miles at Runner’s World.
I hope everyone else was more successful that I was at the whole exercise thing.

I chose Chick-fil-A over the elliptical. (why the elliptical hate??). but I did fruit cup instead of waffle fries. And today we have lunch, so no sweaty for me. I do, however, have a 2 hour intro to zils belly dance workshop tomorrow, so it all evens out. Because clinking lil finger cymbals is JUST like working out.

I guess I don’t haaaatttteeee the elliptical machine; I hate not having the choice between the two.
You get to use finger cymbals at your belly dancing class? I wanna try.

I’m going on a 20 mile ride tomorrow, and i might start training next week, depending on how crowded it is in the gym when I go…

I yoga-ed yesterday and *meant* to go to the gym, but I had to go get a armchair from Craigslist with my roommate, which took an hour longer than planned due to a mischievous GPS system.
Still some more moving to do this weekend, but I hope to get back to the gym for a treadmill run tonight!

If you take a zils class you learn to use them. Regular classes don’t use zils. I imagine it to be the shimmy equivalent to patting your head while rubbing your tummy.

woohoo! since i’m the only guy, it will be a breeze winning the men’s race…
bedouin sherpa - February 29, 2008 at 3:30 pm
Are we competing with each other? Cuz something tells me you won’t be the only guy in the entire race….

Hmmm…well maybe we can hold a PRWeb vs. vocus race
bedouin sherpa - February 29, 2008 at 4:04 pm
Oh, PRWeb would totally win!!

Considering who is running for Vocus, we’d pwn ‘em!

I see no responses from vocus….guess they’ve already given up!
