On behalf of CaptainSwab:

Here is the intro:

Please do all posting here and let the other thread go!

Mission: The VeggieBoards Hamster Club is a group of fitness/health minded vegans and vegetarians who support each other in their endeavors in fitness, diet, and health. Anyone who chooses can post to this thread. There are no dues or fees, just a desire to share our efforts and support one another.

Go Hamsters!!!

As I've posted in the September thread: I've decided to make the new thread not just for October, but also for November and December 2006. It makes more sense to me to create a new thread quarterly instead of every month, since each month can go by pretty quickly. Let me know how this works for you Hamsters. If it's agreeable to you all, we'll keep it this way next year. If not, we'll go back to individual months.

Have fun and get sweaty!

I completely forgot that we entered a new month.

Today I'll do some speed work for a total of 4-5 miles.

I'm not sure what I do counts or not. I work out every day for about two weeks biking and then I have pain and bleeding attacks and am mostly in bed for about a week.

Ooops, you said in the rear

Hi Hamsters,

I'm tapering right now (purposely easing up on the running milage before a big race) and it's a time I usually enjoy but my first ever 50K is this Sunday and I'm really nervous about finishing. I have got to relax.

Go Hamsters!!

Walked 30 minutes yesterday.

Today, I am going to the gym. Elliptical trainer for 40 and racquetball for 45. This is my new workout plan: at least 40 minutes of cardio, 5 days a week. I will do this for 2-3 weeks to start. I hope I have time to fit it in every day! Wish me luck.

Good luck vj on your plan!

Hi Hamsters

Thanks Captain, My run went great! I finished under 7:30, which is about a 1/2 hour better that I hoped for. I feel pretty darn good too. It was a beautiful sunny fall day to boot. So beautiful!

Go Hamsters!!!!!

 

[CaptainSwab]

Thats great! I was thinking about you yesterday when I was on the trails. Great time too for a trail run of that length. Glad you had a good time.

 

[Tweety]

Today was yoga class day, but I was too involved in studies and had to pass. I'm on a time crunch.

Anyway, yesterday I did 40 minutes of aerobic and worked with weights.

 

[GhostUser]

Congrats to all of you - keep up the good work!!

I'm going to do what cardio I can manage in my apartment tonight for 40 minutes + 20 minutes of lunges, squats, and kicks.
