Alright, it's a challenge I accept. No pants until the temp is below 40. We sure missed you all this morning. We were a small but mighty group as were you I'm sure! Any suggetsions for Saturday's run? My vote is anything far away from the crazy drunk hunters! One idea is to start at the mouth and run south, meet up with the homeless man, and then continue to head south for about five miles then turn around and head back via the diagonal by the cheap ticket movie theater, then catch Carterville road down through the business park back to the mouth. Confusing? Yes! But that's our goal, create the most confusing Saturday run we can to keep ourselves enertained! Any other suggestions are welcome please! Miles? 13-15!! Chow for now!

I second that motion. Maybe we should have a wimp award for anyone who shows up wearing pants. (I might as well just hand it to myself right now.)

How do you spell wimp? Is it whimp?

I like the start at the mouth of the canyon...I see that guy every morning, even on Sunday when I go to BYU...wonder where he lodges every night. I'll talk to my peeps on tomorrow's run and see what they think.

As Triabry mentioned, we settled on 6:30 at the mouth this morning. (As a point of clarification, we means HILLene, Triabry, Downhill Diva, and me.) I would prefer to go north rather than south while the weather permits. If we stay on the beaten path, we shouldn't be in the crosshairs of any crazy hunters.

Apparently the specified lower body clothing is shorts. I guess that still leaves the parka option open for upper.

I'll go along with Ms. Mileage on distance.

Tschüss

By the way HILLene, if you are going to notify us of your plans to run the following day, it would be beneficial if you did so BEFORE 10:16pm. Especially when the run begins at 5:00.

I'm not worried about the crosshairs of hunters. I'm worried about the ricochet. I'm game (get it?) for either the canyon or the loop du Jeff (homeless guy).

So I think we should start planning now to do a combined group run next Wednesday a.k.a. Halloween. Costume required!!

Going north on Saturday is fine with me. I just didn't know if everyone was sick of that direction, but I guess it has been a while and you're right about doing that route before it gets too down right chilly.

See you Saturday or some of you at the spot formerly known as the "House of Lindsay" tomorrow for spin. Good times!

o.k. I am getting in a little earlier today. (instead of 10:16-- I am sure glad it wasn't 10:18) I am going to spin in the wonderful mts at 6:00 unitl whenever you need to be home. I know this is later and not so good for some--- it's going to be great OUT side--- call me if it works. I think we will meet at death (the hill above the soccer park) at 6:00. Call me if you are serious.
Bike on fellow runners

I want to thank everyone for kicking my rear yesterday and leaving me in the dust. I'm sorry I won't be around Saturday to endure further punishment. Hillene, how are you riding at 6:00 AM - it's stays dark until 7:15 or so? Are you going solo or is the big BC or C-Rad joining you?

Paceless Plodder said...

I found it!!!! I will need clues as to who is who.

Motivation for cold weather running will be much appreciated.

I'll see you tomorrow.................maybe :)

Becca said...

I'll be there, but I may cut out early.

Anyone for 20 miles tomorrow? Also, I'm trying to lose weight, so i may have double layer above and below the waiste... oh, wait a minute, i guess i can't... we have a soccer game (state cup) at 7:15am!!!
Hey, anyone for a run at 10:30am instead?
Hillene, are you still biking outside or are you back to the Orem Rec routine? Let me know, we must coordinate our schedule again!
Go team!

rabidrunner said...

Has anyone checked out the profile on the "Paceless Plodder"? Is he/she part of the Taliban? Must read this one, it's pretty funny (click on the paceless plodder link to see it.)

So Triabry is that guy who qualified for Boston this year for the first time. Has a mustache.

Ms. Mileage is that blond girl who likes to run LOTS of miles.

Rabidrunner is me - the girl who cries at the end of a marathon... and has brown hair.

HILLene also has dark hair, but likes to run hills and bike 100s of miles.

Rad Racer is currently the fastest of the bunch. He's a civil engineer.

Not sure who cracker or the paceless plodder are yet.

Becca is Becca - she came last Saturday.

Docteur Scott is our Phrench Physician.

cracker you need to come and find out about the rides in the MOON light-- it is great. BC has been wondering about you. are you comeing???? I think cracker is the guy who stopped running (he fakes injury) and bought a new 29in bike...
zzzeeee doctor yes i am at the orem rec when the ground is wet. i went this tues and biked outside today. i am thinking about not running in the morning and biking mid morning early afternoon. i need to talk to the coolest guy ever on this plant--- he is taking the young men out at 2:00 so I don't know if i can go...
if you want to bike instead of run let me know....

What's up, Hillene? You are sabotaging our running group by bringing some to the dark side! You can all run and still bike later. Ok! I am a little worried as well about this paceless plodder dude! He's a little mysterious in a not so good way. Anyone have a can of mace in case he shows up and wants to do harm?!

See you ALL at the mouth at 6:30. Who ever doesn't show up pays big time!! All for one and one for all!

Anonymous said...

Yes, we do need to figure these names out-you know, this is a clicky area of the world and we need to know our click! Hillene, I was going to be taxi in the morning-I won't call your going on a 2 wheeler the dark side...but the tallest JM would love to wait for you I am sure. See you ALL at 6:30. (My running daughter is almost tempted to go w/...we will see if she can wake up that early?)

Oh, and concerning ms. mileage's idea on a run on wednesday...I don't think I need a costume...I look pretty scary at 5 AM!

CRACKER said...

HIllene, I have soccer at 7:40 AM and 12:00 and was going to try to ride in the afternoon. I spoke to C-Rad who wants to go. I'll call you manana. You and BC need to let me know when you're riding once in a while - is it because I'm so da#@ slow??? Does the doctor want to ride?

ms. mileage, I'll have your riding sneakers all ready to go Monday AM. Hopefully you got the word from miss downhill runner that I took them.

Ciao...

Uh ya, Cracker, thanks for scaring the poo out of me!! I had gone to lift weights and Downhill Diva thought I was in yoga, so when I went to get my bag to leave and saw my shoes were gone, I was FREAKING OUT!! Luckily I saw Downhill and she alerted me of the theft that had taken place by none other than you and then I put myself back together and calmed down! Thank you though for fixing them for me. It will be nice to have the proper equipment on Tuesday for spin. So I quess my threat was taken as a joke by all of you two-wheeled freaks and now you are talking more people into going with you tomorrow. Well, fine. We will just have to have an extra fun time tomorrow without you guys. BTW (by the way) wear your orange tomorrow just in case the hunters come down lower!!
