Saturday 7

1 - One tough lower body workout with Trainer yesterday. We have several new pieces of new equipment in the gym and I learned how to use all.of.it

2 - Two sore legs due to #1 above and #7 below. Yeah, so maybe not the brightest idea to focus on new lower body exercies with the Trainer the day before my longish run. Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow.

3 - Three weeks to go before Duke City. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time.

4 - Four quick & easy blankets made for Project Linus this weekend so far. See www.projectlinus.org if you don't know what this is all about. I'll do two more tomorrow and turn them in on Monday.

5 - Five cucumbers sliced for Gurken Salat to take to Oktoberfest party this evening. Yummmmy

6 - Monday is the end of the Sixth week of school for my kids. Can you believe that?!? Six weeks of this school year already over...

7 - Seven mile run this morning. Not pretty. But got it done.

  1. I love tough workouts, but not before a longish run... I'm sure you could add a few more "ows"

    Way to go! You got it all done!

  5. Project Linus is AWESOME! What a great thing to contribute to. (It was one of my favorite things we were a part of at the knit shop.) Super job on 1 & 7!!

  6. Love the Linus Project, what a great idea. My son carries a "blankie" around and we call him Linus sometimes. This makes me wish I could sew or knit.

    I'm off for a killer training session tomorrow and will feel your pain.

    Good Lord! It's October practically! Where does the time go.

  14. Hahah, love the format!

    Have totally done a long run after being killed my trainer the day before. I swear you warm up though, it just means you will just be even sorer afterwords I find.

  15. My kiddo is so attached to his sleepsacks (one he wears and one he holds onto while sleeping) that I also call him Linus. I can just see him still carrying it when he's 10.

  19. Great 7!

    BTW, after I saw your blankets on FB I looked into my local project Linus and they are having a blanket day on the 17th. So, I'm setting something up w/my moms group to participate. We're going to make blankets another time, too, because I can't make it on the 17th.

    Anyway, what a great organization. Thanks for sharing -- I didn't know about it before!

  20. Yes, new exercises hurt. Often like discovering muscles you never had. Good job on your 7!
