<p>FYI: Heard on another thread we should all change our passwords here after the hack last week directing people to facebook and twitter. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/community-forum-issues/1460437-important-security-notice.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/community-forum-issues/1460437-important-security-notice.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Thanks, all.</p>

<p>One of my facebook running friends posted this: “What defines you as a runner is the decision to lace up your shoes and get out the door. Perseverance. And never fail to find the joy in the journey.”</p>

<p>5.1 mile canyon loop hike in the sunshine. Absolutely spectacular day. First two miles pretty vigorously steep uphill, longer less steep descent which I ran down part of the way. 1 hour 20 minutes, HR definitely up on the ascent.</p>

<p>Dinner out. Tapas. Tried to make discerning choices but it was a bit of a splurge: oxtail stew, bacon wrapped cheese stuffed dates, shrimp, frittata with potatoes. Livestrong ended up entailing some educated guesses.</p>

<p>Wow, MOWC <em>5 freakin’ hundred</em> amazing!!</p>

23909

<p>MOWC-- Wow!!!</p>

23910

<p>Two days; two workouts. Trying to get back on track. Hopefully get a third one in tomorrow after work!</p>

<p>CJANE:</p>

<p>We’re not worthy. I let you know when I do a 5 mile hike in under 2 hours! My top speed, on dirt, with a pack, is about 3 mph and it goes down from there with terrain factored in.</p>

<p>HOPS:</p>

<p>Hey, I heard about this really cool challenge workout you could do. :)</p>

23912

<p>2 miles on the treadmill tonight. They got new treadmills at the club, and they seem easier to run on for some reason.</p>

<p>Wow Mowc, 500 days of running. I wish I could find an appropriate light up accessory for that. Too bad they don’t have light up ruu muu!</p>

23913

<p>You need some serious neon to commemorate 500 consecutive days of running. Maybe [Ginza</a> at Night](<a href=“http://onlyhdwallpapers.com/wallpaper/ginza_desktop_1280x1024_wallpaper-206482.jpeg]Ginza”>http://onlyhdwallpapers.com/wallpaper/ginza_desktop_1280x1024_wallpaper-206482.jpeg) or [Freemont</a> Street](<a href=“http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b2/Fremont_Street_Experience,_Las_Vegas_NV.jpg]Freemont”>http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b2/Fremont_Street_Experience,_Las_Vegas_NV.jpg) or [Shanghai</a> nights](<a href=“http://www.hdwallpapers.in/walls/shanghai_nights_china-wide.jpg]Shanghai”>http://www.hdwallpapers.in/walls/shanghai_nights_china-wide.jpg)?</p>

<p>MOWC, you are so my hero.</p>

23915

<p>Walked over 2 miles outside in sunshine, swam 1.5 miles (nice cooler water, getting more friends in a pool, definitely was very social yesterday), did weights for about 15 min,…gain a bit of weight also. Very promising, isn’t it? Planning to do the same today, hopefully weather permits, if not, I might walk on the 14th floor on our walking circle, nice view, but inside walk is not my preference. Hey, I might gain a bit again, will see.</p>

23916

<p>Nice day of varied exercise, MiamiDAP. I think mixing it up is a good plan as we approach “middle-age”!</p>

23917

<p>You mean as we are getting farther and farther from “middle-age” and do not even remember any more how 50s feel, as memory is going down the drain also, not all, but it is getting very very selective. It is almost funny, as I remeber some things that are at the level of detail that nobody, not much younger, not my grandkids remember. But I would not remember something very trivial, I have to calculate my age all the time, I cannot tell, that is if I remember that current year is in fact 2013. I do remember the year and month that I was born. So, I calculate my age all the time. However, while others have phone numbers on their cells, I remember many more of them than most much younger people, even phone numbers that I do not use often at all.</p>

23918

<p>Thanks, all. I would love some light up accessories, other than what I wear on my head for seeing where I’m going! Speaking of which- there is a woman who walks a dog on the path where I begin my evening runs. The dog is terrified of my headlamp, and lies down to wait for me to pass. I guess it looks pretty strange for this single beam of light to move towards you in the dark!</p>

<p>I am mostly happy that I haven’t been too sick or injured to run for 500 days! The hardest parts were when I had the bruised rib from the fall in September or whenever it was and a couple of days with this cold/bronchitis in January. Otherwise, the worst thing was having to get up 10 minutes early at 0 Dark Thirty a couple of times to fit in a mile.</p>

<p>I am still about 3 pounds heavy, and yesterday wasn’t a good eating day since I began it by stepping out of Ash Wednesday services into the best bakery in town for a large Danish! Hope to do better today.</p>

23919

<p>MOWC, I think your streak is really a testament to doing what you love for exercise. Really great! I’m in awe. And here I felt really good about logging my food and fitness for 30 days! Happily today I am celebrating my ten pound party. Whoo hoo! The next party will be of the five pound variety. I’m glad it happened today - it will keep me from rushing out tomorrow to buy the discounted Valentine candy and gorge on it. </p>

<p>Way to start the day, Sabaray! :)</p>
