@rheddmobile If you get a pedicure, make sure you ask for the 9 toe - 10% discount. ;)

COngrats @PastorVincent! That's awesome :)

@Orphia Haha! No, this was at my highest weight though. My ta-tas were much bigger then. I was mortified at the time. It took me 3 months to gather the courage to step back into the gym. LOL Treadmills are evil things.

I can’t believe I am telling this story. There is a treadmill mishap more embarrassing than falling off a treadmill. When I first started running, I bought some cheap sports bras from Walmart that zip up the front. Sweaty sports bras are a nightmare to get out of. I thought it was a smart purchase. NEVER buy cheap Walmart…

I am most definitely a butt-crack-of-dawn running fan. This afternoon, my body was like - What are you doing? It 2 o’clock. It not time for running right…

You can also spark a conversation about these controversial topics. I promise the running chat will last at least 11 miles ... or you will kill each other. LOL. Just think, if you get to the end of this list you will be official running "sole mates". 1) What is the best training plan? 2) The best running shoe is ______. 3)…

LOL. Just start talking about something you have in common. Maybe running? ;)

Go team B! I can up my mileage to 1550. What’s another 50 miles? ;) Team A @Elise4270 400 miles @shanaber 900 miles @Butterchop 700 miles Team B @amymoreorless 1550 miles @greyparks206 450 miles Team C @eleanorhawkins ? (tentative 500 miles) TBD

@PastorVincent Well, you “ran” to the store to get cookie ingredients. You “ran” your mixer to mix the dough. You “ran” your timer to make sure the cookies didn’t burn. See, it does count! ;)

12/1 = sick 12/2 = sick 12/3 = sick / 3 miles 12/4 = 10 miles 12/5 = 3 miles 12/6 = 3 miles 12/7 = thunderstorms Normally, I like running in the rain. However, the temps were in the 40s and just recovered from a 2 week death-like respiratory illness. I also have a 1/2 marathon next weekend. I can’t run it with pneumonia.…

12/1 = sick 12/2 = sick 12/3 = sick / 3 miles 12/4 = 10 miles 12/5 = 3 miles 12/6 = 3 miles I managed to finish a run without stopping for coughing / wheezing / walking intervals this morning. The puny lungs are finally healing! Yey! Happy Birthday @Scott6255 :smiley: December goal miles = 150 / 19 miles to date Upcoming…

I love Joes NB Outlet! I always find the best deals on this site.

12/1 = sick 12/2 = sick 12/3 = sick / 3 miles 12/4 = 10 miles I can’t get over this bronchitis. It’s been 2 weeks and I am still wheezing when I run. I have the crappiest immune system, ever.

Thanks for making this thread @Elise4270! Team B here! 1500/2000 miles

I missed this question. I also have super sensitive skin. Clinique is great but expensive. The Benefit brand also works for me - but is expensive. Cheap things that work: Oil of Olay lotion - the old fashion kind without sunscreens or fancy anti-aging (aka - rash inducing) agents. The St. Ives Oatmeal based soap products…

I am so excited other people are excited about the Run the Year Challenge! lol Maybe we can post our roughly estimated yearly 2019 mileage and team up based on those estimates? I estimate 1,500 miles in 2019 (barring serious injuries-god forbid).

I am already signed up for the 2019 Run the Year Challenge. :) They don't have the tracker page up yet.

12/1 = sick 12/2 = sick 12/3 = sick / 3 miles I attempted to do a short easy run this morning but ended up walking some of it. I started wheezing halfway through. At least I got outside and moved. It felt good not to be laying around feeling like death. December goal miles = 150 / 3 miles to date Upcoming Races: 12/15 =…

@Elise4270 I am totally down for a MFP Run the Year team! Anyone else want to join? Hypothetically, I could attempt to run the miles on my own. However, I have a sinking feeling work, injuries, middle-age, family, life...etc. might happen... ;)

@Orphia Congrats on the HM PB!

@PastorVincent You have my sympathy. #stupidadulting I am whining about the same thing today. It was perfect running weather today and I can't run. #stupidbronchitis I have been having a PLOM party all day. (PLOM = Poor Little Old Me)

12/1 = 0 12/2 = 0 So, I feel a little less like death this morning but still not up to running. My ribs hurt from coughing so much. Ugh. Who inspires me to run? Besides you guys? ;) The women runners in my running group inspire me. Half of them are doing the "run a marathon in every state" thing. Crazy! They were super…

Ditto. I am not coordinated enough to chug a full (non-sippy) cup of Gatorade and run full-speed-ahead at the same time. I would be a danger to myself and others if I tried that during a race. ;)

12/1 = 0 According to my fitness watch, I have taken about 300 steps total today. Most of those were for a doctor visit. Stupid bronchitis ruining my running plans.... :/ The weather is perfect right now. Dammit. December goal miles = 150 Upcoming Races: 12/15 = Stars at Night Half 1/26/19 = Miami Tropical 5K 1/27/19 =…

December goal miles = 150 I know I will get at least 150 miles in. So, my goal is 150? Really, I just want to get my two 20 mile training runs for the Miami Marathon finished and stay injury free. I have a half on 12/15 but I will be running it for fun. I am paranoid that if I try to race it I will injure myself and not be…

@PastorVincent Exactly. I don’t know what troll “Woo”ed your post but... good luck to them. I wish MFP would get rid of the insult Woo thing. It’s just a troll-encourager. I like running and want to keep it that way. I am not in this to “win”. The second it becomes un-fun, I am finding something else to expend my energy on.
