Okay, Jane and Mare.  I will give it a shot.  Running will have to bewalking and I'll have to sub something for pull-ups as I won't haveaccess to a bar.  Maybe I'll do rows with tubing or something.  And itwill be that weekend but maybe not ON turkey day.  My gosh, the thingsI let you talk me into! :) :)


Yep, terrible awful enablers! LOL! Here we don't celebrate thanksgiving, but what other choice do I have than joining this wonderful group?
I'm IN too

Okay Jane, I am in for the Murphy CF workout on Thanksgiving. Of course I will have to break.  I just don't see myself doing 100 pushups as a set, but I can do either do 5 20-set or 4 25-set.

Cool!

We're heading to Savannah, GA on Thanksgiving morning, but this will be a fun challenge to do prior to a 4 hour drive.... I'll  have to chek with you, Jane on a pullup option, though!!!

I'm IN!!!!!

We have 2 Lab/NewFoundland mixed dogs that we picked up at the animal shelter.  They are brothers and 3 yrs old.  They are not allowed in the house but have a nice heated kennel to be in while we are at work.  We also have 3 house cats.    The dogs are named Chuck and Harry, my hubby has spoiled them but they are good dogs.  The cats are Ziggy, Dave and Susie.  I couldn't imagine not having pets- they are part of the family.


Barb M - your dogs and cats sound adorable! I can't imagine not having pets either.

Blue Girl - I know.  We always say that when they  pass were done but we end up with more.  I have to stay away from the pet shelters.

Phonix,

Per the CLX schedule you should not be doing a circuit 2 days in a row, you should be either resting or doing cardio at least 1 day in between....

Per my experiance (I did 6 weeks of CLX) doing circuits 2 days in a row is OK as an exception not as a rule.
If you get a speeding ticket you wouldn't go and break every traffic rule for the rest of the day... Treat yourself with the same respect!

Catster,

Congrats on your results with CLX! I'm hoping to start it again in January after I get my weights for Christmas.

Gaby and Vantreesta,

Wishing you a better day today! ))

Thanks Orion.  I knew I was tired and wondering how I'd do it all.  I swear though that my book said 1,2,3 then the intervals or rest, but I just looked at it again and, well, apparently those mischievous Fairies have returned the correct book.  This one does say every other day.  I think I'll just do a cardio today and start again with bc 1 tomorrow.  That'll give my my rest day Saturday when I'll be out anyway kayaking.  Thanks again. :)

Jerz ~

I knew you'd join us!! 

I live 4.5 hours from Savannah.  We'll have to meet up there someday and do a race. 

Catster ~ Glad you are and Gaby are joining us. 

I will post a separate thread closer to the date with substitute suggestions, etc.

Jane - we live about 4 hrs from Savannah... we almost signed up for a race there the day after thanksgiving, but couldn't get my sister to commit..... Wouldn't that be fun meeting there for a race???  DH and I would also love to work up to doing the 10K in Charleston that goes across the bridge.... I'm sooooo not there yet though!

Thanks miss M and Karen for the good wishes

And I'm very excited to do the Murphy CF! I think this will be a very nice way to see where I'm standing on my fitness journey ;)

That would be great!  I know that Savannah and Brunswick have a couple of races that goes over bridges.  I think the one in Charleston is called the James Island 10K.  I already scoped that out for a future race.  JL and I are running 10Ks on Sundays so it becomes our base distance.  We are hoping to do a 10K on January 2nd.

Jane... that's awesome!  I'm keeping the 10k as a future goal for sure.

Karen... The meal you had sounds so yummy!  That is totally worth the extra workouts you may have to do in it's wake!! :)
