I am self employed and can run a relay leg as long as necessary (up to eight hours) between 8am and 5pm EST...

Holy shlt, girl. If you and I were not already involved with other people, and if we lived closer together and if you liked old slow runners, I would totally *kitten* marry you.

I have been in a funk all day after hearing about @KeepRunningFatboy . He was so young. Like @MobyCarp noted, if I had died at 52, I would have never known what a gift it is to be able to run. I did not know the man and I was not here long enough to engage him much in conversation, but in one of the other forums, I was…

Been busy with a custody trial, but I have enjoyed reading the eating/introvert/extrovert/church discussions. I eat small, but steady on long runs and long races. I am an anti-social extrovert and my faith and spirituality got stronger and deeper once I ditched church.

RE; How long have I been running and whether it gets easier... I got ankylosing spondylitis when I was 14, which resulted in me getting my right hip replaced when I was 24. I had to get it re-done and got my left one replaced around the same time when I was 44. Running never really seemed to be an option. In May 2011, when…

Got my 24 miles in today. It sucked. Hate the sun. Hate this phone app. @PastorVincent Sorry to hear about the DNS😟

Oh... that's harsh man... even for a pastor. o:)

I dew believe you got it.

@amymoreorless You are knocking down some solid mileage! Kudos and respect!

@AlphaHowls... ok after reading that, I am even more convinced that you are the baddest badass runner I know. Running all those miles in just one pair of shoes and with gout. Damn. Two things I know for sure... you got serious issues and I am a sissy. :)

Lol... when I was in law school (Marquette University), people always asked what I wanted to do and I would always say, "Quit the law." I hated it and could not stand hanging around lawyers. But I also said I would never, ever do family law or criminal defense, which turned out to be the only two things I have ever done...…

And I lived in Wisconsin... :)

@AlphaHowls With putting in double digit mileage almost daily, what are your "go to" shoes and how many pairs do you keep in rotation? I am curious because I keep many pairs in rotation and rarely wear the same shoes twice in the same week because I feel that it keeps my legs and especially my feet healthy and injury free.…

The responses have been great... and lots of good points about relationships. I have been a divorce attorney for 35 years now and have learned a lot about relationships, priorities and compromise. The question was of great interest to me since it played a role in this second divorce i am going through. One of the problems…

So here is question... if your spouse or SO would tell you that your running was creating serious issues for them in the relationship and that you really needed to stop running in order to keep the relationship healthy, would you stop running? Or is that the mountain you would die on? I know several runners (including…

I hate dog owners who let their dogs run loose and then tell me, "It's ok... he won't bite you." My standard response is "Ok.. but if he tries, you will have to get a new dog." Problem is that most loose dogs I encounter are just roaming freely as houses are scattered about a half mile apart from each other I never see…

Well... I guess I would have to opt for chi channeling... too stupid to change my route and too smart to challenge a bear to a knife fight. Maybe tomorrow morning I should just carry some snacks to toss to him to keep him distracted long enough for me to pass by... I don't think we have any such thing as animal control out…

Nobody here would have judged you if you had left off that parenthetical phrase. Running before kids. And if they are sleeping, that's just a bonus. You mean this kind of silly running? Girl, you are missing out....

@KeepRunningFatboy You have that bike race coming up soon.... you ready?

@PastorVincent Nice! I only have one pair with that many miles...

Yeah... but then I would only get a half of a medal...lol

I'd believe you. :) I push it with my shoes too... Those red and yellow Merrells have nearly 900 miles on them..
