207 – My home away from home and REAL rugby

This is where the magic happens! Haha. Well, not exactly magic, more like torture but I like to give it a positive spin.

7:30am on the track. Not many people – niiice – but already nearly 80F degrees. I must get out there earlier. In the background are the bleachers where I ~~like to~~ incorporate some step-running 2xs up and down every 1/4 mile. It’s not many steps, maybe 25, but they’re tough in the middle of a run!

I filmed the below clip at my park in response to Adam Waters: RTP-Blog 2.0 July 4th post. Thought I would show him how rugby is REALLY played and maybe those Aussies can pick up a tip or two. At least, I think it’s rugby or an attempt at it.

Admittedly, not as bone-crunching and exciting as Adam’s clip. It’s the gentle version.

Gotta love seeing where everyone lives and works out. Thanks for a little view inside your world. Looking beautiful as usual.

Lilla-thanks for taking the time to put together the badge and Nike team stats…they look great. I seriously tried for 3 hours last night to get that badge in my Wordpress sidebar to no avail (if anyone know how, please tell me). Anyway, I just created another Shredder page at the top of my blog. PS-what’s up with the extra miles???…kudos to you, was it # 4 last time I checked?…but you were my pacer…gulp…guess I better lace up the Nike’s…

Cool video Lilla! looks to me like they may be expats playing “touch footy”, a milder version of rugby!

Thanks Michael! Would love to see more of your world. You’re a bit of a mystery outside of the gym. All I know is that you’re a high-level executive in Cali? Cool!

Wow Meredith – a whole Shredder+ page. Too cool! You could put a pics, a blogroll your own running stats and goals in there. I wish blogger had pages! I would love to devote a page to my runs to see my progress all on one page. Might have to go back to WP.

Re the pic in WP sidebar: If I recall correctly, you need to upload the pic to WP. Then locate the url and paste it into a textbox widget. Not 100% sure though.

Haha – extra miles. Can’t help it! I’m hooked. You’re doing AWESOME too – 30 miles in 10 days!! Who would have thought we would be logging this kind of mileage. Next stop: the Shredder+ annual marathon!
Larry

Beautiful place to workout. You are really putting on the miles.

HI Mike,

Hi Ad,

I think you’re right about them being ex-pats. They had accents – couldn’t make out if they were English or Aussie but def not all Americans.

It was fun to watch the game. I’ve never seen rugby before the vid you posted. Pretty cool!

Thanks Larry! Nice to see you around the shreddersphere.
