Ran on treadmill at gym, they were showing Top Gun. Brought me right back to the 80's!! Then caught part of weight class. Great workout today, started the day off well- put me in a good mood all day!

Nice job today! I haven't seen Top Gun forever!

Hey Chrisi,

Sorry I haven't checked in for awhile. I liked your re-evaluation of your SGM goals. I think it's great that you are still sticking a BQ as your gold. Good luck in finding more running buddies. They sure do help out! I wish we could be running buddies. The gas and time to meet up for runs would be horrendous! :D

Now for the confession of the day....I am a girl of the 80's and I have never even seen Top Gun. How sad is that?

Sole sister, nice long run last week, you are back in the game. Stay Kool, with cruisin, B of BS Rools out

If you are going to run on the treadmill you gotta have a good movie going. I am planning on running the 20 miler too so we hopefully we can catch up more after the race!

Puppy? Is this a new dog?

Good work--running and weights on the same day! Bonus points for you!

From Christi on Aug 31, 2008 at 23:12:23

Jody- you must see Top Gun again, its a good one to have on in the background while cleaning. I was getting a kick out of the hair & clothes styles!

Kim- you MUST rent Top Gun. While we're confessing...I've never seen Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid!

Brent- Thanks, I'm getting back into the game, it may be late, but I'm getting in there!

Marcie- It will be fun to see you at the 20 miler. You'll be kicking back and all recovered by the time I cross the finish!

Lybi- No, same dog. Teddy the 2 yr old. I still call him my puppy (he's so hyper!)
