Where Are You From?
I want to see how many from the group live near each other? Meeting fellow runners makes it more fun and encourages you to stick with it. It also gives you accountability just like this virtual group aims to do. Maybe a few of you guys that kind of live near each other could agree to sign up for the same race and meet up…

Discussions
Runners that need some nutritional accountability
So I'd like to not clog up the running challenge thread with hot dog talk. If you'd like some honest support with your diet choices, just make that known here.
Squash Army
Geared towards those of us injured/unwell runners who might be moving more slowly, maybe not even able to run, maybe finding the monthly challenge thread difficult to keep up with. Here we can talk about non-running life challenges and what we're learning along the way. Discussions about pets & hobbies are also welcome.…

Training for my Eighth NYC! Help me learn to eat??
That kind of says it all. Sunday Night, I did a 5 mile run. Monday Morning, I did a ~6.5 mile run. Then, I went to the gym for an hour. Had a WAY undersized protein shake (ummm....I forgot to add enough carbohydrates), and ended up napping all afternoon. Not great for my daily work routine. Can someone help me learn to…
