So the way I do my long runs in the heat is run 4:00, walk :30. This gives me a chance to take a sip of Gatorade and wipe the sweat from my face. When I…

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, did a Pace run of 4.5M at 8:44/M. Took me 39:15, then I walked for 30 minutes to cool down and did some stretches and foam rolling. Walked to dinner last night as well. Ended up with 17,800 steps for the day. Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? I believe so. We went…

Run went fine even though I feel like I’m cheating by skipping the heat and the hills outside.…

I laughed at your comment because I also made an error following my plan which caused a lot of extra work. I’m glad I’m not the only one who does these silly things. 😁😁

Sharing two thoughts I had this week: 1. I had a crappy day at work yesterday where I made a mistake, but my coworker was rude and childish about handling it. Instead of coming home and beating myself up over the mistake, I said "screw it, it's over" and went out for a run. I didn't allow myself to eat my sorrows away and…

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes. Today was a rest day from running, but I ran a lot of errands by foot and lifted weights. Still managed to log 16,200 steps without running. Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? No, I went over by 300 (still logged a 450 calorie deficit) because I was very hungry.…

Today was a scheduled rest day from running, but between walking to the subway twice today and coming home, as well as some other…

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, ran 4.5Ms again. Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes, came in with 37 calories to spare. Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes, I prelogged the day which made it easy to follow.

9.01: 4.5M Easy (4.5) 9.02: 4.5M Easy&Intervals (9) 9.03: 4.5M Easy (13.5) Ran this evening after a crappy day. I made a mistake at work and felt like a fool. My ego was bruised and my confidence was shaken, but no real harm done. Proud that despite having a bad day, I didn’t allow the mistake to be an excuse not to run.…

1. Exercise: Yes, ran 4.5M and then went for a walk with my friend. 2. Yes, my caloric budget is done sort of on a weekly basis. I want to be 750 under my burn each day of the week except Thursdays. This is because I run long on Friday so I budget 250 under for Thursday. But I keep an average tally for the week. Entering…

@shanaber @PastorVincent @Scott6255 @Tramboman @quilteryoyo Yeah, I'm not smart sometimes. 9.1: 4.5M Easy Run (4.5) 9.2: 4.5M Easy&Intervals (9) Today's run, once I got my head on straight with numbers was supposed to be 8-1/4M repeats but I wanted more distance so I ran 2.5M easy, then ran 1/4s with 2:00 recovery in…

Maybe vinegar? I'm lucky- my cat, the two times a year she does puke, does it right in front of her litter box. But my parents had a cat who puked all the time. My Mom swore by vinegar and then running the rug shampooer over it (they had carpet in their bedrooms).

So I'm loosely following a cross between a 10miler and HM Hal Higdon plan for my upcoming races. I'm on week 4 and am doing fine with the runs except the speedwork days. I struggle and feel like I'm going to die during them. I've been doing 8-10 1/2M repeats at 1M-5K pace. I copied all the workouts into my calendar on my…

The hills in ATL are deceitful. But you have 10 months to get ready for the Peachtree Road Race, the biggest 10K race in the world. Starts at Lenox Mall and finishes in Piedmont Park. :)

@Scott6255 Did you sign up for the Atlanta Publix 13.1 or 26.2? I just signed up for the 13.1 March 1st this year. **I had to edit this post 3 times before I finally tagged the correct person. I wish MFP would make tagging easier within a thread.

Yes, yes, and yes. For my exercise today, I ran 4.5Ms despite a 91 degree heat Index. It took me 42:30. Then I walked about 3 miles. Stayed below my caloric limit. Logged everything I ate and drank except water. I don’t log water because I don’t really keep track of my consumption. So I’m 1 for 1 out of 30.

I'm sorry you weren't feeling the greatest this week. But I'm super happy to hear you made it back to the bathroom in time. I absolutely hate that feeling.

Started the month out right with a 4.5 mile run today. I miscalculated my numbers in my original post for the month; my running plan calls for 126. 9.01: 4.5M Easy Run (4.5) As far as vacations, we are going on a Rhine River cruise in October. We are flying into Amsterdam and leaving from Stuttgart. The cruise is a wine…

Hi! I'm new to this challenge, but I have used MFP sporadically over the years. I am a runner and struggle with balancing my weight as a result of overeating- under exercise (is that a term?) isn't an issue. I have a hard time saying no to food when it's good and I travel a lot for work, which makes eating out a must…

Running plan calls for 115.5. I don't know if I have it in me to do that. But I'll set that as my goal.

@vickyrunner Welcome :)

I can't completely disagree with the OP. For example, I wear a uniform to work. In 2018, my company changed uniforms. Before that, for 10 years, I wore a very form fitting, non-stretchy dress. If I put on 5lbs, I could feel it getting tight- 10lbs and it was difficult to zip. It kept me in check (we were only allowed to…
