    @biketheworld & @juliet3455 Thanks for the information. I'm all for feeling less drained at the end of a long run. I know I will have to play around with the run/walk ratio and see what works best for me. I imagine it will change as I run more and get more fit. I do think it will help with my mental confidence to do longer runs and survive. Being older (59) I am hoping it will help reduce injuries too.

    @Avidkeo I love your view this morning. Even with a blowing gale, it's beautiful. I, too, hate getting out and running, or doing anything else, in the rain and wind. I hope it calmed down a little and you were able to get your run in.

    Trying the ticker. Let's see if this works.

    First try didn't work. Second one did. BTW, is there no way to delete a post once you saved it? I tried to delete the above fail, but couldn't figure out how.

    Nope, you can edit for up to an hour, but not delete.

    Well then, guess we'd better review and re-review before hitting that post button. At least we can correct a typo. Hopefully I won't ever post something on here I wish I hadn't.

    @quilteryoyo That's where the edit button comes in handy. Delete all the material and insert a emoji then save it.
    Of course there's always one of us who might be online and catch it (quote function) and torture you >:)o:) with it - in good humor that is.

    Any recommendations for a hand-held water bottle? I've never run with one but as my runs are getting longer I'm thinking it would be good to give it a go. Plus I super don't love all the disposable cups at races. I was looking at this one, but $21 for a water bottle makes me sad. ETA: This also looks interesting, but maybe too small? Second edit: This seems cool, but maybe awkward with high-waisted compression shorts? Maybe a belt instead?
