What It Takes....November 2012
Welcome to November, ladies! Kortney, so sorry to hear of flooded basement! Yuk! But glad you were fine otherwise! Penny, I hear you on the lack of motivation! My intentions are to sign up for IMLOU, but after 3 marathons, I am feeling very lazy....Did manage to get my butt back in the pool yesterday. It actually felt pretty good.
How was IMFL, Kim? Hope I put the right name here....can't look back at previous post without losing this so far! 
IMFL is on my list to do some day. However, time-wise and $$ wise, I have to stick to places near me, which happen to be WI or KY, and both are hilly!!! 
I also hope to get down to TX for IMTX one day! Perhaps I'll get to meet you, Penny! I didn't sign up for IMWI because I just feel it is beyond my climbing ability right now. However, I am looking seriously at volunteering, so I can cheer for the huge EN contingent racing next year!
Hope your weekend has been marvelous everyone! Pop in and say hi!

Hi Ladies -- just wanted to stop by and introduce myself. Another "K" here - Kate from DC. Well, originally from Germany, but I've been in DC for 14+ years, so I guess I've got native. I just joined the team last month during the membership drive and am absolutely ecstatic to be here. Hope to meet some of you soon!
@ Barb: I did LOU in 2011 and will do it again in 2013 - it is an absolutely amazing race. I highly recommend it. Let me know if you have any specific questions!
One week out from IMAZ! Nervous and excited. I hate mass swim starts. So even though I am a good swimmer, I prefer not to be punched, swam over, pushed under, or kicked. Hoping to have good karma!
Everyone getting ready for Thanksgiving?
I'm still on cloud 9 after my PR at IMFL and finding out I don't have cancer. It's been a damn good week
Michele, best of luck in IMAZ!!! I want so much, to do that race one day!! You'll do great! Just have your elbows ready to return the 'nudges'.
Sarah!!! So happy for you with the PR and even moreso, not having cancer!!! Yeah!!!! And signed up for IMCA!! You GO girl!!
I am still dealing with lower back issues, that have me in physical therapy. I've been able to run a little bit last weekend, but still not up to par.
I'm ready for Thanksgiving, in that my family is going out for the holiday. I'm REALLY ready for Thanksgiving for a break from school! The student body is wired for sound! (I teach high school. Nuff said.)
Have a great day everyone! Hope to see more ladies in the thread!
