    Mark,What was the physical condition of those folks who said your wasting away?
    We got to break it down to build it up.You sir are on the path to well being ,strength and fitness.That scares people who do not have the drive to make it happen in their own lives.

    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    3 miles in segments.

    I started at a slightly faster pace, and my segments were a little longer. I'm very happy :)

    Time for coffee and cookies!

    Ran 2.75 miles yesterday after a triceps/purmotion workout. My body is angry with me today...and that doesn't bode well for tonight.

    3 miles in segments. I pushed myself a little. The harder parts weren't as enjoyable, but I'm still very excited about my progress.

    3 miles in segments. Not as strong as yesterday, but by the end I was feeling happy. I wonder if there is an exertion level that pushes the happy button.

    The songs I want to request for Philly are running songs. I feel better requesting them here:

    Even Flow
    Once
    Porch

    Any other good PJ running songs that you would recommend?

    I have lots of PJ songs I like to run to. Pretty much anything on the "rocker" disc of the greatest hits album. Plus Whipping, Given to Fly, In Hiding, Habit, Grievance, Life Wasted, Got Some, Mind Your Manners.

    And I'll freely admit that I look completely ridiculous when I run and one of these songs come on my iPod. I'll lip sing, nod my head, air drum, etc. I'm sure others at the gym get quite the chuckle at my expense.

    Was the baby in a halter facing you with blue and white sneakers? I tried to find that picture and I couldn't find it. Did you have fun? Did rgambs, jr. have fun?
    Yep, that was me, front row of the seats behind the pit all the way on Mike's end.
    We all had a blast and baby Simon stayed happy through the whole show, clapping and dancing his first birthday away!

    So i finally make #1 Varsity Singles for the tennis, and yesterday in my 5th match I fall and dislocate my left shoulder. While on the ground I tried to pick myself up without realizing what had happened, and bent my arm in a way so that I accidentally popped it back into place. This happened only a few points into my match, and I decided to finish the rest of the 90 minute match with one arm (I lost badly). As the day progressed the shoulder got worse, and I ended up needing my mom to drive two hours to Madison WI to take me to the hospital. Apparently the dislocation caused a lot of irritation, and the shoulder is really inflamed, restricting pretty much any movement. Now I need to wear a sling until it gets better.

    :(

    So sorry for that, ehbacon. Hope you heal quickly.

    Congrats on your tennis accomplishment though.

    I would have thought that after 3 weeks of coughing, I'd have some nice abs...nope. :disappointed:

    RKCNDY and ehbacon, I hope you feel better.

    I ran 3 miles in segments. The two days off must have been needed. I felt stronger today.

    Done! And, Eddie wore a Rocky shirt. It's like the PJ running gods were telling me to get a move on. I'm on it! Here I go, but after some coffee.

    I had to go to the doctor...I got antibiotics so hopefully I will feel better in a few days.

    Back to the grind this week. Was sick all last week and wasn't able to do much of anything. Looking forward to getting back to the gym.

    Allergies are turning the right side of my face into a bubble. I'm going to rest a few days, except for the interview tomorrow. (Here I go! I can do it, I can do it, I can do it!)

    That's not too bad for 2 weeks off.

    Did you like the camping and hiking between the shows?

    Duck yeah we did! We did DuPont, Black Balsam, Looking Glass and Sliding Rock, then a couple miles of the Mountains to Sea trail where it runs with the Blue Ridge Parkway. It was great! Baby Simon rocked out his 1st bday at the epic Greenville show, then he made it to the first encore of Columbia. We finished up with a couple hours hiking at the highest mountain in Virginia, Mt Rogers. Awesome trip!

    He is a photo album for those interested...

    Great pics! Glad you had a great time. It's been a long time since I've been to Looking Glass and Sliding Rock. Those pics make me want to go back! When it's warm enough, Sliding Rock is great fun!
