obax Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Happy (belated?) birthday! And woo to tracking with little/no effort! What inspired the switch from Imperial measurement to metric? Are the Germans rubbing off on you? Dare mighty things Current Challenge Link to comment

Croman Red Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I was thinking of ElastiGirls's fluorescent green shoes. I try to stay away from seizure inducing substances these days...getting a bit long in the tooth for ambulance rides, the family and neighbors keep thinking its The Last Ride:) Doing the metric now because I haven't found the function to switch to imperial. Besides, all of my events in Germany use it, so why not? Thanks for the B-Day Belatedness, but its actually a month out still...I got the watch early so I could train with it. Mrs. Red was willing to give it up early because we'll be on different continents when I hit the 50. Of course, since there's some concern that I may not make it to 50 (the Zugspitze comes first), it made sense to do so for that reason too:) Getting a slow start on this challenge. Its been very difficult to coordinate with the rest of the household's schedule. Hit ground last Wednesday and was immediately into the mix of it with graduation activities and family get togethers (involving meals) through Monday. Been doing household maintenance the last several days. Mrs. Red does a pretty good job, but I'm the heavy lifter and the figureouthowtobuildashoppingmallwithaleatherman one in the family, and I have a tough time walking by something that needs fixing, so I've been slacking off with the working out. I have been meditating every day, at least once for about 5 minutes. Not sure that I'm in a receptive place for the benefits of counting my breaths right now, but its simple enough and it ties in with my OS (Oh Shit!) plan. You see, with all the yoga that Wolverine is doing, there's some kind of chance that he will achieve enlightenment (i.e. start hallucinating) this challenge and start spouting various prophesies about the imminent Rapture of the Spreadsheet (the Greater Analytical Model descends from the heavens and punishes the Chaossins or some such). If this happens I want to be pre-positioned to present counter prophesies for The Heresy. It will go something like "the Spreadsheet Apocalypse is nigh!" "RunAmokForYourLives!" "Loot, pillage, and burn as necessary." Cro Magnon Assassin "Hold my beer and watch this..." Link to comment

AgentsSka Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I suppose that is true. I've been fortunate to only have one ride in an ambulance. Maybe I'm not pushing hard enough...

Croman Red Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 OK people, the prophet has landed. This is serious. I'm sending out a call to arms for all dedicated Chaossins. Find at least one example of Entropy in action somewhere close by, take a picture of it, and post it on Wolverine's page. I know its asking a lot, but we need to act now and snap him back to reality before his delusions carry him too far and he's lost forever! I cringe when I think I might see pictures of this unholy madman running about in fluorescent pink shorts... Oh, and feel free to begin running amok. But be sure to save the burning until after the looting and pillaging is done:) Cro Magnon Assassin "Hold my beer and watch this..." Link to comment

Adventure comes packaged in ambulances (or at least gets a ride home in them sometimes). OK, before this gets out of hand, I don't ride around in ambulances for real (I bounce really well instead).

Croman Red Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 6 June 2013Last night was an odd run. Ran to my wife's fitness class and then joined them for a "hash run". Not really a workout, but fun. I never thought to combine beer and running before. A natural combination, now that I think of it. Overall, just shy of 6 km. Have the Sound and Narrows tomorrow. That should be fun also. Props to everyone who shared their photos with Wolverine, you all are amazing:) I am kind of concerned by his silence though, I wonder if he's alright?
