@Elise4270 @RunRachelleRun My mom was told she wasn’t “smart enough” for college as a woman of “god”. It took her many years but she finally went back and fulfilled her dream of getting a college degree and teaching (and teaching young women that they ARE smart enough). My husband was in the same boat. He joined the…

@zdyb23456 I plan my regular long run route to pass a gas station with a walk-in beer cooler. Not for the beer - lol. For the amazing experience of stepping in a frozen walk-in beer cooler when you have been running a million miles in the billion degree heat.

I always plan to run when I travel. I even bring my running gear. Alas.... I usually don’t end up following through with it. My husband and I both love to hike so this is our usual activity on the rare occasions our schedules sink up for vacation. Most of the time I travel for work and don’t have much time. I am lucky if I…

@MobyCarp I mastered the art of the proper snot rocket during the Central Texas cedar tree pollen-apocalypse of 2017. I guess that means I am a real runner? ;) @RunsOnExpresso They say there is no such thing a TMI in the running community. I hope you feel better soon!

@Elise4270 This heat is beating everyone down this summer. My running group has dwindled because of the sucktastic heat. This is the only thing keeping me going right now...

Ugh. This makes me so angry. I ran across a homeless guy in bad shape on my running trail on Wednesday. We were under an extreme heat advisory & the trail was busy that time of day — so I stopped and asked if he was okay. He wasn’t. He was hungry, thirsty and possibly having a mental health crisis. I was so nervous…

@RunsOnEspresso i hope you feel better soon! I suffer from early waking insomnia as well. It sucks the life right out if you. For me, it comes in spells and there is no rhyme or reason to it. You should definitely have a sleep study. I had one done because I also sleep walk. There was not much they could do for me but, if…

No socks? I quarantined my summer running shoes to the garage for the past two weeks. August and long runs have left them — oderific. New shoes came via UPS today so I can finally burn the old ones (for the safety of the general public). I can’t imagine the state of them without socks... this summer... 😱. Maybe it’s just…
