Hey, EED community!

Here is your daily check-in post! Happy 4:13 am! Stupid cat.

If you are posting for the first time, or new to the community, please review the community's standards, below.


1. Mod (that's me!) will post a Daily Check In post, for those who prefer to note their daily activities in response to a prompt. Please only place exercise comments here.

2. All members are encouraged to post daily independent posts about their activities, if they prefer that to a prompt.

3. Please place any NON-EXERCISE comments in independent update posts and behind a cut. Some people are sensitive to discussion of diet and nutrition. That is integral to many people's exercise activities, so I want members to be able to discuss that, but for those who are here strictly to log exercise, I would like them to be able to avert their eyes.

4. Everyone is encouraged to introduce themselves, discuss their exercise goals, and post updates on their activities. "I finally made it to running a mile!" or "I kicked up into handstand today!" are updates that we all want to hear about and share! Please put long posts and entries involving diet and nutrition behind a cut, though.

5. Aside from intro posts and injury announcements, please try to include an exercise update in every post.

Dratted propane truck! What happend to the jellybean program to substitute for the sport watch?

The pebble/jellybean counting system works -- as long as I remember to drop/eat one each lap. Considering how easily my brain is scrambled, I will undoubtedly forget now and then. And I will still forget when I've got a new watch, but at least the watch keeps track of split times, so I can go back and check whether I've got a split that's twice as long as it should be, and it will be easier to correct for my mental lapses.

Anyway, since I seem to be running again for reals, I decided I ought to celebrate with a new watch. :)
