    anyone who has run a half marathon?

    Angela, I ran a half last fall (the only one that I have done). I also used Hal Higdon's training programs to give me some guidance. Because I don't have access to a track, I used the Imax workouts in place of sprints/intervals on the track. I also think it is important to do a...

    HBO Movie - Warm Springs

    Clare, Yes, it is the one with Kenneth Branagh as FDR. Cynthia Nixon (Sex and the City) does a great job as Eleanor Roosevelt. The movie was well produced and I think anyone who grew up in that era would approve of the movie. I am not sure exactly what you mean by "aesthetic point of...

    Cathe! Your favorite shoes?

    Lyanne, Obviously I am not Cathe, but I have been working out with her for a number of years too and I require shoes with the ultimate cushioning because of a hereditary foot condition. I have been wearing Rykas for quite some time, but went through a short time when even the higher-priced...

    HBO Movie - Warm Springs

    I watched this movie over the weekend. It is about Franklin D. Roosevelt and his affliction with Polio. What an exceptional story! I highly recommend watching it if you get a chance. I don't watch many movies anymore, because they seem to insult my intelligence or aren't appropriate for...

    Columbia, Missouri???

    I live about 30 miles from Columbia. If you have any specific questions, you can e-mail me at [email protected] Columbia is a nice community and fairly safe. It is very accessible because Intersate 70 runs right trough it. I do most of my shopping in Columbia, although somethings are...

    I find the "King" disturbing - is it just me?

    RE: I find the Definitely CREEPY!!! I am getting chills just thinking about it. I really dislike those Quiznos commercials too. You gotta wonder what the advertising agencies are thinking, but hey they have us talking about them! Don't they? Tina

    Potty Training Question (especially veteran moms)

    All kids are obviously different and have different motivations. I didn't want to push my son either, but by the time he was 3 yrs and 4 mos, I was tired of diapers and I got desperate. He didn't care about potty training. He is very independent and this was a control issue with him, so I...

    Hey, I had a really cool idea

    I was just thinking about this yesterday when I was doing Imax for the umteen hundredth time. I would love for Cathe to "re-release" some of the more popular older vids. She wouldn't have to change the choreography, but maybe update the music and utilize some Cathe "fans" for the crew...

    I found my perfect leg workout...Leaner Legs

    I have thrown this one back into my rotation recently and I am seeing great results again. More quad and inner thigh definition is what I am seeing, without bulk. I have also cleaned up my diet, so I am sure that is helping. I combine LL with L&G and ME for my weight work during the week...

    so can I ask a dumb question??

    A Cyborg -- That would explain how she can speak through PUB abs!

    Infomercial ? -Found anything good out there?

    I got my husband an Ab Lounge for Valentine's Day (sweet, huh). Anyway, he used it a couple times before he quit working out again. I haven't reallly done a workout on it, but I have tried it out. I got the cheapest version at Wal-Mart. The thing I don't like about this model is that you...

    Bringing up Boys--Dr. James Dobson

    Sabrina, I have this book, but have not finished it. I started it when I was pregnant with my son over 3 years ago. After he was born, I didn't have time to read, so it is still waiting for me to pick it back up again. Someday soon, I will actually finish it. What I did read of it was...

    Difference between L&G and LL

    Don't rule out LL just yet. I currently use L&G and LL each weekly. I have been using L&G for several months, because I am a runner too and it has been great for strengthening the areas that help maintain proper running form. I brought LL back into my rotation because I wanted some...

    Longer Workouts, Fewer Days Per Week

    Gayle, I usually do this about one day per week, because I don't work on Tuesdays. Yesterday I did Imax2 (plus abs from C&W), then PUB (minus the abs), then LL. I had a small snack after the cardio. I made it through the workout just fine, although my legs were a little shaky. Total...

    Portable Protein Snack

    Thanks for the info - very informative and interesting! I guess here in the midwest, we are surrounded by soybeans, so they had to get to our grocers sooner or later!

    Portable Protein Snack

    I have really been trying to get more protein in between meals during the day, but have had a hard time because I can not stand the taste of protein bars and so many of them are loaded with sugar (which I get plenty of from other sources) and I can only eat so many egg whites during the day...

    Finally...getting back to it!

    I had to take three weeks off as well because of a death in the family that required me to travel out of state. During that time I also came down with some respiratory/sinus infection that seems to be lingering. I was soooo ready to start my workouts again. I was suprised that I didn't lose...

    So are you glad you bought the whole series??

    I only have 3 of the workouts. I am now wishing I had bought the entire series, too. I know that I am going end up with atleast 5 more of them! Just gotta bite the bullet and order them. Just wanted to let you know that you aren't alone. This is the first time that I haven't pre-ordered...

    I guess I'm being a little corny

    Not meaning to sound like a snob, but it sometimes feels like our little club is being invaded. I am thrilled for Cathe's success, as well, but I liked being exclusive. Sometimes I think it isn't "fair" (for lack of a better word) that everybody else can just jump in and doesn't have to go...
