Nice work everyone! Check out the new picture representing the EIGHT, yes count them eight Jack Turtles (Mark, Concetta, Derek, Mona, Bill, Meg, Eunice and Dyan) who showed up today! Very impressive... so why such a high turnout today? Could it be the inspirational coaches? Could it be the incredible 70 degree weather? Could it be that many JT's are in training mode? While any of these could be possible reasons... I suspect the great turnout was likely due to the yummy breakfast we all had at Scramblers!
Many JT's hung together today on the loop alternating running and walking while others ran around the loop so fast we almost missed them. Great support from Bill and Derek who ran a few us in on that dreaded uphill toward the finish.
I am very proud to announce our membership has grown! Eunice Hornsby accepted the nomination to officially join our wonderfully talented, humorous and just darn attractive JT group! Welcome Eunice!
As usual, we had several interesting conversations going on at the breakfast table. Topics such as the upcoming Presidential election, famous strippers, and goals for the upcoming year. Block out your calendar NOW for December's breakfast! Our very own, Dyan Ellinger, has graciously offered to host a JT breakfast after the Jingle Bell Run on Saturday, December 6, 2008. To get breakfast, you must do the race! Check out the juice video below. We are trying out different recipes to find the perfect juice for this special occasion.

Hello my very missed turtles! I must say, I did miss ya'll yesterday morning. I had an AM workout on Saturday that left my blood sugar levels all wacked out - so proper planning will be done next weekend to ensure that I a.) show up and b.) do not have any issues - sorry to have missed, the breakfast conversation sounds like a good one!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the best blog ever. I will have to rewatch the video tomorrow when I have speakers. But i must say not high marks for the Race Runner.
ReplyDeleteGreat to be back on the trail on a gorgeous day at a reasonable hour. It looks like I may be in town for Thanksgiving Day so I am picking up the training. Sounds like a joke, don't it. I hit the gym tonight for some cardio.
I think I will forgo the juice for now but if my normal training routine of peanut butter cups and wine fails me, I may join the juice wave. Keep those recipes coming.
