RAI,
This thread may be dormant because Maybell has moved over to the Divorce Forum.


Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.

thanks job,

Although I have not seen much from Maybell lately, I did not know she had moved to the D forum. I will probably be over there myself, soon enough. Nevertheless,I don't think that is a reason that the thread should be dormant. Let's resurrect it!

Any more takers??

I DID IT!!

Ran with a friend at 10:15 PM. a bit humid, but not hot out. AND NO RAIN! We ran on a track. Nice even gentle surface. He runs a bit slower than I do. All in all, it was a pretty leisurely enjoyable 4 miles. He bailed at mile 3 (waited for me on the side), so I could step up the pace a bit. Just what I needed. We talked a lot. He knows about my sitch. I wish I could do something like that every night.

I wonder if I will have time to squeeze in some Ab work this afternoon. Anyone have a good Ab workout or know where I can find one.

Next run, weather permitting, Sunday. Who's with me??? WHO'S WITH ME?

Hey Rai,

I do this day in and day out with people, training people all over the country for both events and weight loss. Here's a solid ab series for you - it's four, one minute sets. There's no rest between minutes, but rest as much as you need throughout the four minute series. In the beginning this is going to be very hard, but try to do it three to four days per week.

Minute 1 - do as many full sit ups as you can
Minute 2 - hold a tight plank position on your elbows
Minute 3 - do as many unweighted v-twists as you can
Minute 4 - do as many full sit ups as you can to finish.

Have fun.

You call that fun?? grin My sitch sounds less painful than what you described smile

I am going to do it. Hold me to it. Hopefully I will be reporting in with my six-pack in a few months.

I had no idea that we have a full-blown trainer in our midst. Thanks so much!!!!!

Hello Maybell,

A friend passed this along to me today. I found it encouraging and wanted to share it with you:

Faith…Trust…Hope…Confidence…Love…Attitude

{1}
Once all villagers decided to pray for rain,
on the day of prayer all the people gathered,
but only one boy came with an umbrella.

That's FAITH

{2}
When you throw a baby in the air,
she laughs because she knows you will catch her.

That's TRUST

{3}
Every night we go to bed,
without any assurance of being alive the next morning
but still we set the alarms to wake up.

That's HOPE

{4}
We plan big things for tomorrow
in spite of zero knowledge of the future.

That's CONFIDENCE

{5}
We see the world suffering,
but still we get married and have children.

That's LOVE

{6}
On an old lady's shirt was written a sentence
'I am not 80 years old....
I am sweet 16 with 64 years experience'

That's ATTITUDE

Have a happy day,

Live your life like the six stories above!

That's great Bob!! inspiring.

Biking happened yesterday - short one today before the nasty weather again - I should build an ark or at least a get a row boat for exercise instead.

Got my 16 miles in without pause, nice quiet ride, no music, no conversation, just my skinny legs and fat tires (got to work on those things) - wish I had my old road race bike again.

10 mile ride today. This really helps and I remember how much it helped me get through last summer.

Thanks for the nudge RAI.
