So I know "woo" is negative, but does it mean "I don't believe you"?
I'm not sure the majority of people on here understand the word. I sure don't, but I don't use it.0 -

It does but I'll use it ironically sometimes. Like an eyeroll on a really bad pun.3 -

That is the HUGE problem with it.
Some people think it means "woo" as in "Woohoo! That's great!"
Some people think it means "woo" as in "woo woo" - which is a negative comment suggesting the poster is a liar, passing bunk, or complete pseudoscience.
The board MODERATORS have stated more than once that it is intended to mean "you doubt the sincerity of the post"
Since there are so many different opinions, and everyone will always do what is right in their own eyes, clicking woo is a bad thing. Someone may click it meaning a positive mark, but the person getting the click will take it as a negative one. It should be removed and forgotten for all time.
But, not my house, not my rules.4 -

It was another beautiful, sunny, 66F day for a run, so I ran at lunch. It is hard to believe that I was running today to make up for a day last week that I missed due to icy weather. I only got 3 miles in. I both love and hate running at lunch. I enjoy it especially on days like today when I won't be able to run after work because of prior commitments, but I really only have about 30-35 minutes to run and about 3 miles is all I really have time for. I'm still not sure if I will reach my February goal or not. I have 8.5 miles on my training schedule and I need 9.7 to hit my goal. I will probably just just by runs tomorrow and Wednesday and see how I feel.

I think I would be happy with the same range of reaction buttons that Facebook has. I know the ironic use isn't the official one but I think it's got a pretty substantial following - possibly greater than the 'woohoo' interpretation.0 -
Brrrr, it's gotten COLD here! I've been freezing the entire day whenever I stepped outside. When I went for a run this evening, it was -7°C (19F), "real feel -21°C"(-6F). The difference between true and felt temperature seems crazy, but I'm willing to believe it. Thanks to the icy wind (or rather gale, wind speed 43km/h, gusts of 69km/h). Apart from twigs breaking off trees all around me, the wind even managed to steal my hat at one moment!
I know some of you run in colder temperatures, but I'm not used to them. I dressed in an insane amount of layers to motivate myself to go out at all (as in short sleeved top + long-sleeve fleece + windproof jacket + down vest...). I halfway expected to be too warm, so I planned to run two loops of 4km each. I realized pretty soon that while all those layers kept my upper body cozy warm, my gloves were not performing as well. My phone wasn't happy either and went from 67% battery to 0% before I even finished the first loop. That's when I decided that a short run was good enough
It's supposed to get even colder in the next couple of days, so I'll get to try again with different gloves (and maybe the phone somewhere in between all those layers).5 -

That's sad. I wonder if that gets inadvertently selected when scrolling on mobile. I've seen others that make no sense to "woo".
The woo doesn't belong in our thread. Unless we're swooning over shoes, others mileage, a frozen beard, that one guys legs...

Won't be making my goal this month but that's totally ok since it was an arbitrary one. My real goal was just to get back to consistent training and avoid any ITBS relapses. Tomorrow is my bday so I'm hoping to squeeze in a quick 3.5 mile run, since I'm turning 35, and Wed will be a non-running day, so I should end up just shy of 65 miles. I'll take it.
Today's run was beautiful! Upper 40s (F), a fabulous breeze, and the clouds cleared and the sun came out a mile or two in. I hadn't really been feeling it, since I didn't get enough sleep over the weekend, but the gorgeous conditions helped a lot.8 -

Oh you remember Adrian? He's still in our Strava group, if you need to jog your memory. He posted pics prob a year ago. He had done some weight training and had (has) amazing legs. Swoon worthy.
ETA @AdrianChr92 in case he wants to stop in, maybe with another race pic...
I'm not creepy haha!2
