Hi Laura! The HR training is going really well. I ran a 3:34:05 in Akron in September. Wanted to run Columbus just for fun, nice and relaxed...even though it was 3 weeks post Akron, I still ran a 3:42 in Columbus. Felt great after both. For the next 3 weeks after that, I did run but never...

I did a search and found little discussion... Anyone here use Mirena for birth control? I am looking for reviews from active women. Thanks!

I didn't mesh with a line of guys I dated either...just the one I kept and married. Dating is a process of of so many things for so many. Like Laura said, marriage isn't for everyone. Don't make marraige a **goal** just because traditional society says that is what you are supposed to do...

1. My latest Sugoi hooded running top, Asics running top and Sport Hill Zone 3 running tights, purchased last night. 2. Weekend long runs. 3. Ran 3 marathons this year and qualified for The Boston Marathon at all 3!(two of the marathons were only 3 weeks apart). I was just thinking...

I agree with Clare, you need the fruits and veggies for vital vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and even water. Just wanted to add...if you are consuming any processed foods, you may not be tasting what fruits and veggies **really** taste like. Unclean foods alter our taste bud sensor...

I get like Carolyn...I get sick with myself! I decided to use that as my "tool" this year...remembering how sick and disgusted with myself has kept me away from even a taste this year! That is right, I am not to humble to brag that I have not had even a tiny taste of ANY candy this year! Here...

Amelia, You must be nice and lean for her to ask you that. You must have nice defined facial features, lean arms, toned legs. We all have a trouble spot and yours sounds to be ever so slight!!! Could be worse, you could have been mistaken for an overweight pregnant person...which I was...

I am astounded that no one here finds nose and ear hair attractive!!!!:P

"Does anyone know how long hummus lasts in the fridge???" Hummus lasts a few hours in the fridge...in MY fridge! Yesterday I bought and demolished the Roasted Red Pepper. Honestly, yummus is so...yummus that I can't see it expiring in the fridge. It will be gone before it turns. Yes...

RE: Anyone have Actually, I think it would be a great investment! The first Chapters focus on motivation and goal setting and he does a wonderful job of getting you all jacked up to be more healthy and more fit. Yes it is a nutrition book but diet is 85% of it! It is a very easy read...

Barberton...I will be right there for the Akron Marathon!

I LOVE my elliptical!!!! LOVE IT!!! Go try them out at the store. Also tries craigslist.org

I think the best way to gauge how everything is doing is by what your heart is doing. There is only one way to track that and it is with a HRM. As for the ones on club machines...huge waste...don't bother with them. The only HRM's worth anything come with a watch and chest strap. Those...

My thoughts and opinion: keep the heart rate monitor. IMO, if you are going to be obsessive about any piece of workout equipment or gadget, this is the one! It tells important tales with each workout and I don't think the information is worth disregarding. It's important feedback and an...

Stebby, Where did you get your bra? I may also try sewing the tabs in, that sounds brilliant!

Actually, I think I saw one advertised in Her Sports magazine (more like featured as the editors "must have's") and the price was $35-$40. That is about the cost of a good sports bra anyway! I may try to find that magazine issue and go ahead and order it.

Anyone?

To keep this thread afloat. P.S. I am only posting this because it is already up top. This thing is full of helium!

I think if you are going to be a slave to any piece of workout eqipment, it should be the HRM!!! Especially if you are trying to improve in an endurance based sport. The workout I did yesterday took 73 minutes total and that includes my 1 mile warm-up, the ten 1/2 mile intervals, recoveries...

Have you seen these? better yet, ever use one? I am curious if they work! There is no chest strap because the HRM sensor is built into the fabric! I am looking at an ad by numetrex but this is not the first time I have seen these in magazines. I am curious if they work and give an...
