    My Stepson ! Gees OT

    I'm assuming he's your husband's son? If that's the case I would think that your husband should deal with the problem instead of you.

    Gilbert PICS!!!

    It is so sad what people (if they even deserve to be called people) can do to dogs. My dog, Alfie, who came to us by way of an animal shelter, was abused when he was a puppy. He's 12 years old and still slinks away when I get the broom to sweep the floor. I always give him lots of pets and...

    Are your leaves changing???

    You think your jealous, Sarah? Yes, yes, yes, I can run year round here but, as much as I love to be outside, whether I'm running or not, talk about boring weather!! You can feel the fall crispness in the air here right now and that's all I'm gonna get until March. I originally hail...

    Gilbert PICS!!!

    Both Sophie and Gilbert are cute as could be! Oops, almost forgot, you and Emily are too! The shelves are awesome. My four year old daughter's room could use those for sure. (sooo much stuff!) Do I remember correctrly that someone built them for you? If not where'd you get 'em?

    One more question for experienced runners

    Ummmm, Sarah and Dani, you are experienced runners! And I agree with everything above! Especially the comment about it being mental. As with any exercise, if your body can physically handle it, it takes mental fortitude to get to the next level!

    Clean eaters....what are you giving out as Halloween treats?

    I'm giving out candy. Halloween is a fun time for kids and I have good memories from when I was a kid and went trick-or-treating. I love to participate! My kids eat candy on occasion, in moderation. So do I!!!! I think the child obesity problem is a result of a sedentary, dietarily...

    O/T - Hair issues

    I usually hate my hair. It's not straight and it's not curly. I guess you could call it surly. I fondly remember the late 80s and early 90s when you could get a nice BIG perm! Those were the days of no fuss hair dos. The girl that does my hair was telling me about a new perm that is...

    Funk Busters?

    Do you know what's causing the funk? I usually try to identify what the problem is, tell myself that it isn't as much of a consequece as I'm allowing it to be then I do something to distract myself from what it is. I might spend the day cleaning the house, or a day of shopping. In any...

    Carole, trail runner!

    I'm intrigued by trail running if for nothing other than doing something different. Some of my long running routes include short portions of trails and it is a very different experience than street running. And I know there are long trails around here. BUT, you mentioned the one thing that I...

    I got a job

    I'm curious about how you go about learning to instruct a fitness class. Do you practice teaching without actual people being there? Have you practiced with people you know? I'm just clueless about that sort of stuff, yet interested. :-) Good luck to you and I hope you enjoy it immensely...

    Convenient Diet??

    Really the only salad dressing I ever use is olive oil plus my vinegar of choice. I use two parts vinegar to one part oil. Trader Joe's has a few different vinegars like regular balsamic, strawberry baslsamic, seasoned rice, orange muscat champagne vinegar, etc. To me ready made salad...

    Distance Runners...have a ? for ya...

    This is a problem for me too. I've found that the only gel I can use without disastrous resluts is Carb Boom orange vanilla flavor. Gatorade is the only thing I drink besides water. I eat a very light dinner the evening before a long run and a low fiber light breakfast a couple of hours...
