    Daily Check-in Monday April 3

    Gooooood Afternoon everyone, I have a major case of DOMS in my midback and obliques. I took a Bodybalance class at my gym yesterday. And I'm so sore today from all those sun salutations. I liked all the poses in this class, but the class itself I didn't like. The music was too loud...

    Hi everyone, Haven't worked out yet. Am supposed to do a 10K. Couldn't get the workout in this morning cause I'd forgotten I was supposed to take my son to a meeting point at 6:45AM where he and a bunch of his class mates would get on a bus that would take them to some army compound where...

    I can finally say it: I've been there and done that..... yes ladies, I've done it, I ran a sub 30min 5K, and not just by a few seconds! I ran on the TM with a 1% incline. I started at 9.5K/h for about 5 minutes. Then I decided to increase speed with every song. So I upped to 10K/h, then...

    Aquajock, please advise

    I've started practicing the crawl stroke every Saturday (about 30min), but my calfs cramp really badly. After, my calfs feel very painful. Which effects my long run on Sunday. And by Monday they hurt even more. You should see me walk down the stairs. Do you know what causes it and how I can...

    Gooood morning all, Summertime means the clock has gone forward by an hour. So what was 6AM on Saturday, suddenly is 7AM on Sunday. My body can't take this change. My rythm is totally off, I can't get up in the morning, like today. Alarm went of at 5AM as usual, but I just couldn't get up...

    Daily Check-in Sun March 26

    Wow Carole, 14miles! Happy running. Today I ran 19K on the TM. It was raining and lots of wind. The TM was a bit more appealing today then going outside. The first 18K went rather smoothly at an 9K/h TM pace, perfect for a long run. I do stop to "walk" every 3K when I'm sipping my water...

    Hi everyone, Today is supposed to be an 18K long run. But I haven't decided yet cause I'm not sure what's the right thing to do. Yesterday in the swimming pool I had a major cramp in my right calf. The kind that is extremely painful and takes literally minutes to totally go away. Since...

    half marathon

    I've never done a 1/2 marathon though I run 18K long runs. I have entered for a race in July though. As for training tips, are you new to running? In any case, don't increase mileage too fast. Stick to no more then a 10% increase per week. I usually go by 10% every 3 weeks, but that's just...
