This was today!!! I finished it in 31 min's. I didn't get a chip because I knew I wouldn't be in the running for any prizes so I just ran as a recreational runner. It was as promised very flat. I was surprised how long it felt to me. 5K doesn't feel as long around my neighborhood lol.
There was a pretty large turn out and I smartly started towards the back of the crew. It was tricky maneuvering around all the walkers, strollers, and dogs to begin with....and this was advertised as a race where dogs and strollers weren't welcome.
I was afraid I was starting out too fast but I felt slow, I really wasn't going fast at the start, though it did take me a few minutes to get a feel for my speed. I really wanted to run the whole thing with no walk breaks. This I did with no problem. Though that Last Mile I really almost called it quits and started walking a couple of times then luckily I got past the heavy legs feeling. I generally get that at the beginning of a run and again towards the end and today was no different. I ran through it and I felt ready to continue by the time I crossed the finish line. I was real irritated though right after the finish line...
HI
I really enjoy walking with my husband on the nature trail at the local park its a really nice trail,we take a 3 mile walk but the path can go a lot farther depending on how far you want to walk. We have been walking for several years together. Sometimes we even walk around the neighborhood at night I especially like it during the fall and winter months I like looking at all the house decorations during the holidays. We usually powerwalk until the last mile then we slow it down a bit and take a hand in hand stroll for the last 1/4 mile . Its a great way to get your excerise and spend time with your spouse. We also take that time to talk about whatever is on our minds, by the time we head home we feel pretty good .I'm sure we will be walking for years to come after all its low impact and has great benifits to it.
For the past few months I have thought seriously about deleting my mylot account, mainly because there are so many days that go by that I just have nothing at all to say. And if you are on my friend's list, you probably have noticed that I come and go quiet a bit. I'm never here long... before I take off into another direction and yet, I always seem to come back here. I found this place a long time ago, though my profile will say 3 years, it's actually been longer than that.. I suppose I've been here about 5 years (is that possible?) I had an account THAT I CLOSED (wasn't banned) myself. And started over again. I can't seem to get far away from here, before I feel the[u]need[/u] to come back.I guess this has became my home away from home without leaving home. The world doesn't offer us too many places to escape from what hurts us.. when we feel a little beaten up by everyone and everything around us... Sometimes I guess I just feel the need to go find a place where I know that I have friends who actually[b]DO[/b] care if I live or die.. and honestly, keep in touch by any means possible. Not too many places hold such charm, as a feeling of going home.Finding...
I was just thinking today, that I have never (in my life) been so time conscience before. I don't know if this is something that naturally comes with age or if it's just me. This year I have began "My Last's"...The things that will (most likely) be the last time I will be doing them, either alone or with those that I love.. Let me explain.. My children are nearly grown now, and ready to try this "life" thing on their own.. and, as I put my finishing touches on their baby books, that I started the very day they were born.. I know that these are my[b]final[/b] entries.Looking through their books... I can see that I wasn't a perfect mom.. but with all of my heart.. and every ounce of love.. I tried. And I have to admit.. I didn't do too bad!:) With no prior knowledge and no owner's manual... I managed to make some pretty awesome children that will soon be following their own dreams...[i]without me[/i]. I have never loved or been[b]so[/b] loved, in my life, before them. I have been so blessed! I have pictures, recordings, and special trinkets... of their firsts.. middles... and, now with sadness and joy, it seems that we are crossing the finish line....
Its the last mile to the title race.. Can Liverpool end their 19years title drought and clinch the long coveted Premier League Title? Although trailing Man Utd by one point (who still has one game in hand) but leading by a superior goal difference due to the outstanding performances of late, this could be the year that the Premier League Title challenge goes right to the wire.
6 more games lie in the way, 3 home games against Arsenal, Newcastle and Tottenham, and 3 away games to Hull City, West Ham and West Brom. What are your predictions for these games? And will Man Utd continue to slip up to give us our best chance at the title in so many years counting. Share your views here.

Consumer trials of the first 4G(fourth generation) mobile networks are due to begin this year, with the first handsets expected to go on sale in 2011. Usually such leaps in technology begin in Finland, home of Nokia, or in Silicon Valley, California, but this industry-redefining development is rooted closter to home --in Swindon.
The Wiltshire town is home to a research facility operated by Motorola, the international electronics company, where 4G is being developed and where local trials will be conducted.The difference between 4G and existing mobile data networks(the most advanced of which is 3G) is the amount of data that can be sent within a given space of time. The 3G system was designed to communicate with the internet the it was configured in the digital Stone Age of 1981; 4G is fully up to date with today's faster, more...
Whenever I go to a vending machine, I check to see if anyone's left any change in it - and then I check the floor around it in case anyone's dropped the odd penny.When I'm doing my grocery shopping, I'll buy supermarket own brand products simply because they're cheaper than the "name" brands.I buy all my books, videos and DVDs in charity shops.I wait till the end of season sales to buy my clothes.If an item of clothing is getting worn, I'll see if I can patch it up, rather than throw it out.When driving into town, I'll park in the cheapest car park I know, then walk the last mile or so to where I'm going.I re-use envelopes whenever possible (so if someone sends me a bill, they're likely to get the cheque in the same envelope).I'm the cheapest date in town. If a lady's going out with me, it'll be to the free museums and art galleries, and I'll cook a meal for her myself rather than take her to a restaurant (and I am actually a decent cook).If I walk past a skip, I'll have a look in it to see if there's anything useful I can take home with me.My living room has two light fittings - I took one of the bulbs out.When people give me presents, I...
TMNet is the largest scam company here.
The company holds a near monopoly for Internet service in Malaysia,
largely because almost all the last mile connections in the country are owned by TM Bhd.They cooperate with government,
which control the market,
make all other broadband company having problem in Malaysia.Because of that,
they giving very poor services.
The connection speed is very slow.
The speed in contract is 512kbps,
but only give 100kbps at all time.
The company just give some excuse in this.The internet connection always disconnect without reason too.
Sometime they will give you reason that they have technical problem.
They said they give unlimited services,
but actually we just receive some only,
cause most of the time we can't connect,
or internet connection suddenly disconnect and unable to connect again.TM Net's view on P2P usage is that it is unfair, and implements traffic shaping, in line with its Fair Usage Policy. Throttling P2P usage is at odds with TM Net's marketing of 'unlimited' broadband.
They disallow all P2P, BT, emule and many download.
The download speed will drop to 0.00000001kbps each time you download.This is...
While out for one of my daily bike rides today, I found $1,800.00 in the form of a Yorkshire terrier. I use the figure $1,800.00 because that's the average cost of a Yorkie.I was riding through a subdivision about four miles from where I parked my car, when this adorable dog started running after me.I stopped my bike at the side of the street and put the kickstand down. The dog ran right over to me, and into my arms. It seemed to me to be about six months old.The area in which I found it is a very nice subdivision of homes valued perhaps at $300,000.00 to $1M.Dog in arms I stopped at a home where the garage door was slightly raised. I asked the owner if the York looked familiar to him. "Nope," he said, "The folks across the street have two or three dogs, but that's not one of theirs." I thanked him and left.Remember that I'm on my BIKE with a dog in my arms, unable to shift, unable to use the brakes!I came upon a young girl, perhaps 13-15, walking home from school. I did a stupid thing, asking her if the dog looked familiar to her. She replied in the negative. The reason I said "stupid" is because I could have been a sex predator PRETENDING to have...
