Your name has been on every Blog I have visited this morning---so I decided to visit yours!
I think it is great that you are running. Although it seems like the "it" thing to do sometimes, look at how many people are still in bed! You are AMAZING!!! 6 kids (all at home?), working full time, and you find the time to run and take care of yourself! I did not begin my running journey until I quit working---so you are miles ahead of me and much more dedicated!
You should come visit us all when we are in ST George for the marathon! They need to host a party or something for all of the bloggers so we can all meet!
Have a great week this week and keep it up!!!
(OH, when you figure out how to not feel winded, let me know! I can not figure it out, really. I am a heavy breather--people can hear me coming for my miles!)
Hey Kelli that is a great Idea for SGM! Im going to call Steve Hooper today and see what we can do! It takes tons of races to see and get to know everyone.
Great Idea about having a get together in SG druing the Marathon! On Wednesdays I run with "real" runners (most are Boston Quals) a few of them are running SGM, so lets plan something. I get way more excited about parties than I do running :)
Oh yes it is very clever! I called Steve Hooper and got his answering machine. Ill try later on today and I'll call Sasha also. I think we could look into a pavillion afterwards or even do it before the run. Ill get back to you guys today.
We've had a few pre-race dinners in the past and they have been well attended by bloggers, it is a nice chance to get to meet people and exchange good running stories, plus get excited for the race the next day.
Hey yeah, Dustin! If anyone would know of any plans it would be Dustin. I think we should do a pre race spaghetti buffet! Dont you think so? We could plan it for about 6 pm just like Logan's pre race dinner he had up in Ogden. We can all bring something. Like at Logan's house when we had 6 months supply of french bread! lol Yeah Dustin, get on it. Ill help you if you can get ahold of Steve. Ill try Sasha today. Lets do this! Lets light this candle!
I like this group already - Ive been a member one week, and a party is in the works. Since I will be meeting everyone in person and cant hide behind my blog, I better get out there and start running!
Ok I talked to some St. George locals and Im going to post a message on the discussion forum and we can plan on a get together down there. Last year Clyde had it at his in laws and said close to 50 people came so I wont impose on anyones house but Ill see if anyone wants to volunteer their house or a location. I cant believe all the people Ive met in the last week on here in person! Its fun! We are truely all crazy thats why we get along! lol
Hey sunnyrun, her shirts are not big! She may be computer illiterate but her shirts are not big. We will definitely have to get a get together down there.
Kelli - compress it down. Select the picture you want and the resave it in a compressed format OR you can crop it down using photoshop. Either will work.
Kelli, if you would like, I can convert a picture for you. Or if you want to, I can walk you through it so you can do it yourself. Either way, happy to help.
After it is downloaded you need to run the program you just downloaded. I'll skip those steps.
After it is installed, run the program.
It should take you straight to choosing a picture to resize. Find a picture you want to resize.
Choose a size from the "Profile" list that you want it re-sized to, "640x480" should work.
Make sure the action is "Make Copy".
Click on "Ok".
By default it will name the new picture the same name as the old with the "Profile" added to the end. (for example fireworks.jpg would be fireworks [640x480].jpg)
Okay Jon-You thought you were helping Kelli but you just helped me. I finally got a picture on my profile. Thanks!!! Even though you didn't know you helped.
Great, Michelle. BUT I still am dumb. I went through all of that from your first post (the link worked for me). It all worked, but I dunno where I saved it to.
Kelli, Computers are dumb, they can't do anything unless people tell them to, so your actually the smart one.
I sent you a message outside of this discussion, but it basically says to look in the location of the original picture, that should be where you find the new picture.
Yeah Kelli, you smarty pants you! I like the way Jon put that. I am smarter than this computer! It takes me all night to get this stupid computer to make a CD for me from my saved songs. I cant wait for technology to just make something smarter than me! How was that Jon? By the way did you see we just helped sunnyrun (I dont know your name) get on the Hot topic discussion board. I miss one day of typing on the computer all day because I have to work and get trumped by the newby! lol Thats it!
OH!!!! I DID IT, I DID IT!!!!! If you could see what a mess my "photo folder" is you would understand why it took so long! It was in there under about a 100 different subtitles, but I found it!
Anyway, now as you all rush to see the picture, about all you can see are my teeth! At least they are white. That is the only running picture I have---from last years TOU. I am much cuter (and older) now.
Its about freakin time Kelli! so which one is you? lol Im kidding, I digress, ok Im sorry already! and you can click on the picture and it will enlarge to see you clearer! I see you ran the TOU! Its funny, I have bumped into you im sure before this blog helped us all become a great big happy family!
Shoot! I didn't know that! I am gonna remove it, then, cause I like being anonymous!
And, I am sure you were not waiting around at the marathon finish line last year 2 hours after you finished so I could come passing through. You were long gone!
Sorry Walter (not really)! Since I cant out run you, I will have to out "Hot Topic" you!! lol I have been at the SGM finish line the past two years. I work in the media down here, so Im sure Ive seen you ALL!!
Thats cool you work at the finish line. You'll definitely have to get with us on a dinner before the race and then you can give us an extra special finish greeting.
I think mine would go something like this: Ladies and Gentleman, Walter Brown! Lets get ready to rumble! lol
