    Do you sing while working out with your ipod?

    he-he I have elliptidance, or as a matter of fact "stairdance" music that I put together and sing with it. On the other hand when hr is hitting close to maximum singing is not at all possible, only when I cruise. So I do sing, and sing LOUD. OK, it is my basement. :-)

    Think you're too old to run?

    Marathoning is great. I ran all my marathons (14) between the age of 40-47. It is indeed very empowering, finishing your first marathon certainly gives you this "whatever life throws at me I can handle" feeling. And it is true, most marathoners are "older". It is not just the "middle life...

    Any Chicago Marathoners out there?

    You can read a bunch of race reports on www.coolrunning.com and they all say that the organizers were just not providing enough water/gatorade, and that's itself is enough for disaster and an explanation of "why" so many were in trouble. Unexpected heat wave with lack of water is a disaster...

    Any Chicago Marathoners out there?

    I ran Chicago in 1999, and even that it was so awfully crowded. It's like running with the bulls in Spain. I never understood why the organizers never put a limit on the number of the applications. It is said to be a fast marathon. Yes,it is when you are a front runner. If you are not among the...

    Any Chicago Marathoners out there?

    Boy, do I know about this. During my marathoning years I ended up not once in the ER from all heta related issues. People take heat differently. Some people are most sensitive then others. But the bottom line is that your body will cool itself by sweating a lot-- as your sweat vaporises on...

    My new toy!

    Well, it is not cheap, but it seems to be a very good quality. I like to think that if there is something I use very often it is worth the money. I think this toy will be used a lot. My husband is very much into the "lift your body weight" type of stuff, so he loves it. I'm very much into core...

    Slim Series? Anyone Like This?

    I only have the Slim Series. I like the result. It is long and sort of boring, but not unbearable at all. I go with the music as opposed to her movements, she is so off beat that it kills me. Actually I use them now, every other day. I don't want to follow her rotation, if I did my shoulders...

    I Am Trying A New Approach To Working Out!! Eeeek!! (kinda long)

    RE: I Am Trying A New Approach To Working Out!! Eeeek!!... Tneah, I just wanted to add that if you like the "Squeeze" you may very well like the "Slim Series" from Beachbody. I just did one of the the tapes today "Tear it UP" and I was just thinking that what a great workout is that. About 70...

    I Am Trying A New Approach To Working Out!! Eeeek!! (kinda long)

    RE: I Am Trying A New Approach To Working Out!! Eeeek!!... Hi there my hip friend! I LOVE the stuff on iballet. You get legs, butts, core, the whole nine yard there. And I must say, it is very hip friendly. My new favorite cardio in the gym is now the "Climbing System" -- it is like...

    How many of you don't eat bread?

    I try to avoid anything with wheat, I'm one of those gluten sensitives. Some brown rice, but very rarely. I try to stick to fruits and veggies.

    How old are you?

    50 I don't really believe in the "you look (don't look) this and that age" anymore. Maybe is part of getting old. You can look good and bad at any age, on the other hand most people just look exactly as old as they are. I don't care how old I look, I just want to be able to do push ups on my...
