Shirt news
They do take PayPal and they have to charge for the art work to be converted over. So everyone if you are ready you can pay for your shirt through the PayPal donate button. The sooner we get the money to them the sooner we all can have our shirts. It will take 3-4 weeks before they are done.
They will be 17.99 if you ordered a xxl you have to add another $1.50 to it. I will pay for the art convert fee. And then you will have to let me know how you want your shirt sent to you.
Boog our puppy is back to being himself. :)
I have my new workout from my trainer. I swear I think this time she is trying to kill me. haha NO really.... I have been doing yoga. It helps alot. I sleep better and I can start my day better. I sure can not do alot of the moves yet. Working on it. I record the yoga off of fit tv and do it on my time. I have been having a hard time meeting my calorie count needs. :( I am working with my trainer to get to the bottom of this.
I never got miles to add to the Million Miles.
Over all it has been a pleasant day today. How are you doing??

Crazy Saturday
Today we took the puppy to get his shots. He did really well.
UNTIL.... 90 minutes later his little eyes started to swell up. He was itching them. We were in the Pet Smart getting him a collar and all the sudden his nose was swelling up too. We left in a hurry, took him to the hospital, and he was having an allergic reaction to the vaccine. He is still in the doggie hospital. He had to get some Benedryl by IV. I was so upset. We are trying to get him updated and all and we made him sick. :( He will be coming home a little later.
Weighed in today and I dropped another 3 pounds!!! I am 188. Woohoo!!!

If you like to read a good book. Try Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. I read it in two and half days. I could not put it down. Now I am going to go get the second one. This is the new Ann Rice.
Got to go it is time to call and see if Boog is ready to come home!!! :)
JB please keep me posted!!!

Bad Weather Day
Runner's World Kick In The Butt
"In a world that's quickly becoming so fast-paced that multi-tasking is a way of life, runners have managed to find a way to do something that's good for our heads, bodies, and spirits, and that provides wonderful social interaction."
JOHN BINGHAM
The couple of days have been something. The weather here has been windy. So windy that some of the semi trucks are falling over in the roads. The storm slowed down so now it is just as bad. :( For the last 2 days, I have been stuck indoors. No miles.
My best friend sends me a message on Monday asking me to take her to the Doctors. { she is 3 month pregnant}.And then she tells me she is spotting. She is high risk till her 4 month. I was flipping out.I told her of course I would. So we went and she has a small bleed that the Doctor isn't worried about.It's not near the womb or anything! OMGosh!!! We got to see the baby, and it was just moving all around.And we heard the heart beat. So cool.
Then E was flying home during all of this and he missed his connecting flight, due to being stuck out on the tarmac for over 20 minutes. Airport traffic. He was able to get a stand by flight. Thank goodness other wise he would have been there till 9p.
We are registered for the race. I can't wait. I hope all these damn storms go away. :(
Still no news on the shirts. We will not be going to the Mount Everest challenge. I have an job obligation to attend to. :( They so suck!!! That means I won't get to meet Fee until March during the Princess Half!! I have to be on call during that time since I am going to be the labor coach.
Deb has sponsored a race for September!!! Go check it out!!! I can't wait!!!
For running gear I am going to try out the new running skirts for women. I need a new water pack to carry.I will need to carry 2 water bottles. I finally got E to get new trainers!!! We will be looking this weekend.
I am taking my Mom over to Bally's today so she can check out the sliver sneaker program. They have a pool!! And an indoor track!!! and they are running a special. But I haven't been to the bigger gym of the one we have membership too. I will have to go look.
So what would be a good dreadmill for at home?? I want one, but how do you know what is good?? I do not need all the bells and whistles. I want one I can just run and walk on with incline. Suggestions??
Have a great day!!! October 24th here we come!!!!

No exercise or running yesterday. I just ran out of time.
The hair is cut. She cut 16 inches off. I will post pictures on Monday. I feel lighter too.
I am tired of the tropical news. They are scaring people here. The storm doesn't look like we are going to get it. We are ready. It is putting stress on us.and then the drama kicks in high gear.
Weighed in this morning. No loss, no gain. I figured that. No new workout.I have to do this eval. My trainer sent. I can't do it till Monday.
E and his family were suppose to go to the races this evening but Hanna made it postone till Sunday.
When I get home tonight I will put in some miles not sure if I want to do 4 or 2.
New Cornfest run in October. Sweet corn! It will be during our Disney vacation too. Cool!

The MDGMP Challenger
Hi Gang!!!
The challenge for September is going to be on the AATM show. Listen to get the details.
Shirt news.Ok I have not out the order in just yet, since I am still getting more people ordering them. I am waiting for them to let me know About the logos and shipping. They are going to be yellow bright shirts, and the black logo. Do not worry about paying for the shirts just yet. The donate{ listed here on the blog} button goes to the Pay Pal account I have and I am waiting for them to let me know if that is the way we are paying for the shirts.It is a waiting gym right now. {sigh}
Since Monday I have been doing double the training.
Monday 2.14 miles and circuit training
Tuesday sprints.2.40 miles
Wednesday circuit, 2.14 miles. I was so tired last night my time suffered, but I got the mile in. My thighs are sore!! Not painful just sore.E has to ride his bike now. I run to slow for him,and it hurts him to run that slow.So he is riding his bike when I do the short 2.14 miles. I am trying to work up to getting faster. I can sprint at his speed maybe for a minute, which is better than I have ever done. :)
I am still waiting for my new workout from my trainer. I think I have plateaued. I don't think I will be loosing any weight this week.
We are registered for the Race For The Taste 10k. Next week I will be registering the kids. I am so excited I am just ready to do it now!!!! So Jeff any new Cornfest Runs??
I need your miles for The year for a Million miles!!!
4 more months to go!! Oh I am so excited.
Tomorrow I am getting my hair cut. I haven't had one in 6 years. I have 22 inches of long hair. I can not wait!!! I am donating it to Locks of Love. I have to work 8 hours, and then I am going straight over after work. E won't see my new cut till he gets back from his parents. :) I am looking to get a cut that will be easy to take care of and I will not have to wear it up all the time, and it will be easier to run with!!
They are driving us crazy with all these storms out in the ocean!!! I am tired of hearing it 24/7. And I am tired of hearing about the campaigning too!! GRRRRRR..... I need to run up to the World!!

4 To Go.......
Good bye August and Welcome September!!! 4 months to go. 6 weeks to the Race For The Taste 10k. I am excited and I can not wait!!! I haven't been in the World since July 4th!!! I am shooting for 1:10 for the race. I have alot of work to do.
Matt good luck and stay safe during this Nasty storm. And we have to keep an eye on Hanna. Man it has been busy this year.
Ok shirt news:
The one company is estimating the shirt cost to be no more than 17.99 with both logo's on it. I have to send in the logo's. I am still waiting for the other company to give me a estimate. So far I will be going with this one which is Cool Max.
How many of you are going to do the runner's retreat?? It is high in cost. What if I can get us all a small hot snack breakfast to have in the morning?? We have to line up at 3a. The race starts at 6:30am. I have some letters out and to see what I can do to get us one. There is another running group that does that. They all meet up eat, warm up together, stretch and then go to where they need to be just before the race starts. Thoughts?? I am going to carry my oatmeal with me to line up. And my water I am carrying with me,And a G2 to have before the race and carry peanut m&m's. They work for me.
Ok I will have the challenge up later in the day and and the winner of the first challenge. Today was an rest day. Tomorrow starts the twice a day training three days a week.
Be Safe!!!
