At one point I was doing intervals of up to 8.5 mph and since then I've been having some knee pain in both legs. I've been jogging about 15 miles a week, am I…

Doesn't it drive you nuts when. . .
you look in the mirror after a particularly good workout, where your abs feel toned and taut, and your legs are burning. . . and the outside of your body doesn't match how you're feeling on the inside? I know that's a huge issue for me when it comes to exercise--I can feel it working inside, but it takes seemingly FOREVER…

training for a 10K, but need some advice!
I snagged a spot in the Peachtree Road Race in Atlanta for the 4th of July (yay!). I've been looking at some websites with training plans (runnersworld.com, active.com). Some of the training things they talk about are a little confusing to me (Speed Work, Intervals, etc.). Are there any sites that kind of "break it down"…

SBF2: Reboot Boogaloo - April 3rd
I love coffee. Just thought I would share that. Yesterday, I didn't do the bike ride - 30 mph winds with 50 mph gust - and a dust advisory. With the way my head has felt, I thought it wise. Besides, I had enough wind last Saturday. Did do a walk/jog and a yoga class. Today, yep, another bike ride planned. I have some…

A Question Regarding Running
Hello everyone! I figured that we have more than a few seasoned runners on MFP, so I figured that this would be the best place to ask a few questions. :smile: First off, I will admit that up until recently, I have never run much in my life. Or exercised really. It is only in the past month that I've woken up and snapped…
