    I got a speeding ticket....

    I have worked in law enforcement for 16 years. Ride alongs are very common, but at least for our department have very strict guidelines. There are more officers killed in the United States on routine traffic stops than any other type of call that officers respond to. How old was the rider? Could...

    Question on elliptical trainers

    Thanks. The elliptical at the hotel was a Lifefitness machine. It was wonderful. Smooth stride and didn't bother my knees at all. I was soaking wet sweatty in 30 minutes.

    Question on elliptical trainers

    Thanks Angie. Since I live in a remote area we don't have gyms so I have been a home workout "addict" for 8 years. I am a 911 dispatcher so I sit for 12 hrs a day and work odd hours, so I need something to do at home at my convenience. I was so amazed at the tough workout the elliptical was. I...

    Question on elliptical trainers

    Thanks to all of you for your input. I don't know anything about the ellipticals and I really appreciate all your input/advice! I live in rural eastern Washington and we really don't have a place to shop for excercise equipment around here, so will have to order online. I was afraid I would get...

    trespassing and seedy looking teenagers

    Hi Emy, Have you thought of contacting your local police/sheriffs dept? I am a dispatcher for a rural Washington state sheriffs dept and a lot of people have the same problem you are having, and we send officers out to tell the subjects they are not to be on the property, or using it as a short...

    You know you are good when it comes to exercising.........

    RE: You know you are good when it comes to exercising..... Charlotte, I can so relate! I am new here, but had to reply. My new puppy has to play tug of war with my pony tail while doing anything on the floor. Also, my DH will call me at work to find out what my workout plans are, before he...

    Overtraining recovery

    I have never posted here, but thought I would add my experience with the same problem. I was experiencing the same symptons, especially during really tough (MIC, IMAX) cardio workouts. I got so bad one time, I passed out. I went to the dr and was diagnosed with exercise/allergy induced asthma...
