Posting at the same time as Carole...I know you were teasing me about the chiro. :D Will be curious to see what your nephew says, though, on the proper terminology...

    RE: ::: CHEETAHS ::: where the streets have no name - 7... Sunny :: let us know how the iTrain teen yoga is...I'm curious what the difference is between the teen and adult workouts...I believe biathlon/duathlons are the same...biathlon is probably an older term. Wendy:: glad you enjoyed...

    Kevin Trudeau's "Weight Loss Cure"

    RE: Kevin Trudeau's I didn't know who this guy was until I googled him - I recognize his face from a passing glance at a book cover but am unfamiliar with any of his work. However, the instant someone hawks a pill or other "magic cure" for weight loss other than hard work and disciplined...

    ::: CHEETAHS ::: where the streets have no name - 7.8

    Morning, cheetah babes! :) Couldn't sleep as the back is acting up a little. But it's OK. I'm aiming for an early run followed by some ab work. Wendy :: ohhh OK re: the iTRI. Sounds like an interesting workout! How were last night’s festivities? Didja numb the neck with some good ol’...

    Need advice--new to running

    I strongly recommend Fleet Feet or a store that is specifically a running specialty store when you go to buy your running shoes. You'll receive individualized attention from knowledgable fellow runners. Cathy :) Edited to fix my typos! "I always loved running...You could go in any...

    Has anyone ever had tendonitis in ankle?

    Reese, Yes! Tight calves are an ongoing problem for me...Not so much now b/c my mileage is low, but when I'm running more, I have to work on the trigger points more. When I developed AT, I was not stretching faithfully after every run and I stubbornly ran through pain. Not good! I know it's...

    Hey, Wendy - posting at the same time. Enjoy your dinner/night out! Hope you're not driving. }( "I always loved running...You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage...

    :::: CHEETAHS :::: Saturday, July 7th

    Afternoon, cheetahs :) DM cardio & u/b premix done. Felt the football drills at the end more than usual. Whoo, love that workout! Amy :: I don’t know how your weekly mileage breaks down, but if you are doing, say, 4 mile runs 4x a week, I wouldn’t jump up to 5 miles for each of those runs...

    Jess :: oh no doubt, I'll be gettin' my workout in ;) My day is wide open. Amy :: enjoy the drinks with the girls tonight...Don't forget the 10% rule - not to add more than 10% to your distance or time from week-to-week. Better to play it safe!...Hmm, not sure which name appeals most at this...

    i knew i needed new running sneakers...

    It will probably only hurt for the first few days...if the whole thing is bruised, eventually, it will fall off, but at that point, it won't be painful. That has been my experience when I've lost toenails. ~Cathy "I always loved running...You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you...

    Can’t seem to tear myself off computer this morning…Have been wandering around aimlessly and here it is already 10 am. I believe I’ll do an afternoon workout. :: Carole :: yeah, I can imagine – if you are not used to that kind of humidity, it is hard to adapt to…I have a hard time if we get...

    You guys are making me smile with the screen name suggestions! :D I am writing these down. Wendy :: I’m sure the gym’ll understand – you have a legitimate reason & it’s not like you’re not blowing off the requirement all the time – they should be willing to cut you a break. Laurie ...

    An 11 Year Old Charged with Drunk Driving....

    Oh, I agree - I have worked in urban and suburban school systems and could share countless horror stories. And what infuriates me is that many folks seem to expect the school system to be able to straighten 'em out. Example: a few months ago, in response to several incidents of school violence...

    Wendy :: yeah, I am actually enjoying all the leg work. (I think I posted to you about that yesterday, maybe on the cheetah thread.) Thanks again for the suggestion to do weights first. I'm likin' it!...maybe you can get DH to give you a neck massage? Would that help or make it worse?...So is...

    An 11 Year Old Charged with Drunk Driving....

    I am a middle school teacher and am well aware of substance use at young ages, but drinking and driving incidents at this age are, to my knowledge, rare. For an intoxicated 11-year-old girl to lead police on a 100+ MPH chase is startling to me. If the parents are not on the scene, then the legal...

    Morning, ladies :) Today'll be DM - the cardio & u/b premix. My legs finally get a break! *lol* Wendy ~ sorry about the flare-up...how often do you get them? I have arthritis in one of my big toes (roll eyes here), and that can actually be a bit uncomfortable sometimes - I can't imagine...

    :::: CHEETAHS :::: Saturday, July 7th

    Oh no, Wendy!! Sorry to hear about your neck flare-up. :( Hope the med kicks in and allows you to get to your workout. If not, it sounds like a wise idea to rest. How was the movie last night?...DM is a favorite of mine, too, but I've never done this premix before, so I'm curious...I remember...

    Has anyone ever had tendonitis in ankle?

    Oh, no, Reese! Sorry to hear about your injury! You should definitely see an orthopedist or sports medicine doctor. I had achilles tendonitis - different from yours but I imagine treatment would be similar - and went to a sports medicine specialist, who examined me, analyzed my gait, etc. I...

    Need advice--new to running

    TeTe, Eventually, you *can* do two days (or more) in a row, but in the beginning, it's best to follow the program as is. And again, listen closely to the body. I used to run five days in a row because that is what worked best for my work schedule at the time and my body could handle it...
