5 EZ miles without a watch.  My running mates pushed the pace a bit and I felt a bit fatigued.

Were your running mates wearing a watch? Are you running any race on Thanksgiving?

EZ miles ... yeah right!!

I'm not exactly sure what my max heart rate is ... I should actually use my heart rate monitor thingamajig.

My resting heart rate is usually high 40s, low 50s.

So ... you are doing pullups, right? Not chin-ups? Pull-ups stink!

I don't think anyone of us had a watch, or at least no one looked at one.

I hope to do a Turkey trot in Bountiful.

Yeah I'm doing pull-ups. I don't want anyone calling me a sissy when I show great improvement by doing 5 pull ups!

Running without a watch? What planet are you from? I didn't think that was even possible. :)

Hey fly I can't wait to see you tomorrow at the race are you bringing Andy with you?

From fly on the wall on Wed, Nov 26, 2008 at 17:10:32

Andy may show for the kid's k. Kathie, will any of your family be there? I'm not sure if it will be just me, me and my daughter, me and my son and daughter, or if my wife and/or mother-in-law will go as well. To further confuse myself, I'm not sure if or which kid will run which race. I ask because I may need a place to park a kid or two while I run the 5k. Oh well, one way or another it will all work out.

From Kathie on Wed, Nov 26, 2008 at 17:14:34

Fly I will be there with my daughter, Mom, Kimmy and her daughter. We are all running the 5k. I think that the rest of my family is going to play flag foot ball so they will not be there but if we have an extras come to cheer we are always up for watching kids.

Good luck tomorrow Fly. You cant wait to hear how you do. Up for a little friendly challenge??

Saying you're a geologist for your day job begs the question, "What do you for your night job?"

Costumed crimefighter?

Hey Super Spud, I hope you have a great race and a wonderful Thanksgiving!

From huans32 on Thu, Nov 27, 2008 at 14:59:02

Happy Thanksgiving Fly. Hope you do awesome at your 5k. Which I am sure you did.
