I'm thinking of running it - I live near Binghamton, and just ran the Vestal XX (20K) last weekend. Have you run the Boilermaker before? Doreen

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome and the good luck wishes for the race! You are all so knowledgeable and inspiring. Doreen

Thanks for the advice everyone! The 20K that I'm training for is called the Vestal XX, and it takes place on June 21 in Vestal, NY. This is the website in case anyone lives near here or is interested: http://triplecitiesrunnersclub.org/pdf/vestal_entry.pdf It's a very hilly course so I'm...

Hi everyone, I don't mean to intrude on your thread, but I have a question for all of you experienced runners. I'm training for a 20K, and I've gotten up to 10-11 miles for my long run so far. I'm wondering for those of you that monitor heart rate, what is a good percent of max at which to...

I live in Apalachin, NY near Binghamton :)

Thanks for the replies, it's good to know that I'm not the only one who finds these workouts so hard! For me, the original Imax is the hardest - those plyo jacks take so much out of me - but 2 and 3 are very close behind along w/MIC which also never seems to get any easier. It is true though...

I've always found that the more I do a workout, the easier it would get; as in my body would get stronger and make the workout seem easier to perform. I've been doing an Interval Max workout (1,2, or 3)for about 2 years now at least once a week, and they are always just as difficult for me as...

Thanks Wendy, you are definitely right! Wow, you were in a very big race! Mine only had 220 people in it...you had 640 - that must've been a lot of fun to run w/all the energy of all those people around.

I love this DVD too! It is a great option when you want a slightly shorter, intense workout. Doreen

Thanks Jess, Carole, Wendy and Dani! Doing this 15K really gave me the race bug - I want to keep training and upping the distance and hopefully complete a marathon sometime in the near future (I'm hoping for this year)!! The only thing that was dissapointing was that in my age group (20-29)...

I'm so glad you did well Wendy! I did well too - I actually did a lot better than I thought I could do - I ended up w/1:20:00 or pretty close to it which is about 10 minutes faster than I was thinking I would be able to do, so I am one happy (extremely tired) camper right now :)

Thank you Christine, Carole and Wendy. I have decided to run the race. I'll let you know how it goes - it's at 2 pm today. Wendy, good luck in your race this morning!

I've been running about 6 miles or so about 3x a week for awhile now. I found out that there is a local 15K race going on tomorrow. I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not that is too much of a jump in mileage or if I should be able to successfully go the distance. I am not planning on...

You are completely right about that. If none of these suggestions make Fage enjoyable, I don't plan on snacking on it :)

Thank you for all the ideas! These sound delicious - I can't wait to try some of them out :) Doreen

Hi everyone, I like the idea of having a Fage yogurt for a snack, but by itself I don't really enjoy it. I tried putting a spoon of sugar free jam in it, but that didn't really help too much. Does anyone have any ideas of what to mix into the Fage that wouldn't add too many additional...

Wow, I wasn't aware of that at all. Thanks for letting me know that - I'll definitely avoid it as well from now on.

That sounds delicious. Thank you so much for posting!

Hi everyone, Does anyone have a good recipe for chilean sea bass? Thank you :) Doreen
