Goal was 60 but personal issues meant one week missed. Looks like 50 for me.

Added you both!

Anyone else? The more the merrier.

I've used the Vivoactive HR watch ( no strap needed ) for hockey a couple times. The glove covers it well but I wouldn't do it most of the time.

I play roller hockey and for 2 hours I log about 600 calories with my garmin. Hard to say what shape you are in but might give you ballpark.

Working toward first HM.

Getting ready for my first half marathon. So this month goal is 60 miles.

Original poster hasn't been here for 3 weeks but the general advice still good for new readers.

Great thoughts everyone. I'm going to work on form ( will have to look up some youtube ) and cadence in short amounts to start. I seriously appreciate the advice.

Read the article and this popped out at me, ""But what I'd say is if your frequency is around 160 or lower when you aren't just trotting around, you should check to see if you are overstriding." I need to get to work!
-
Alright, I'll try and find the songs. Should I work up to it? Like 165-170 or just bite the bullet and do 180?

I had hernia surgery and had the mesh put in as well. The mesh along with the scar tissue caused some nerve pain for probably almost 2 years but...it was just pain. The doctor said that for me it was not going to cause additional problems by activity.

Sounds rough, wish I had any useful advice.

WinesCa added! DancingMooie - I'm sure I am in minority but I kind of like running in the heat. Seems that I stop running in the winter and need to relearn how to run as it gets hot!
-
Nice work on that running! Added you.
-
Good luck str8bowbabe!

Hello sweets1973 added!

My plan is 1560 but what I actually do....well, add me and you'll see :)

I may be misreading a bit but it looks like you run 3 times per week and 13-15 miles per week. The long run of 5-6 miles is pretty close to the same distance as the other two runs. Conventional wisdom holds that you should lower the disance on a couple of the runs and run an extra day. Same miles but spread out, then add a…

I was running on a local trail last week and I passed two girls in their twenties. On the way back I saw them again and one of them asks me "Are you Chi running?" I say, "Nope, I don't even know what that is". The rest of the run I spent thinking is Chi running something for old fat people who run flailing around? Mostly…

Running a mile a day is probably going to burn about 100 calories a day. That doesn't seem like enough to transform your body in any noticable way. Also if you are eating that bread to fuel your mile it's a wash. Now if your building from a mile and plan to increase the distance then great! You're on the right track.

Feel free to add me as a running friend.

You should see a foot or sports doctor. I doubt anyone here can give you the right advice even if well meaning.
-
I'm a hundred years older than you but also run. It's would be great to have another runner to motivate each other. Feel free to add.

It's a fair question. I played 4 hours of hockey on Sunday. I logged 2 1/2 hours. I figure with subbing and water breaks that it's a fair estimation. My preference is to err on the side of marking less calories burned since my goal is to lose weight.
-
Every day I wake up and feel like I won't be able to run today. I don't run in the morning because I never have energy then. By lunch though, I am motivated and regret if I don't run. Maybe you need to find a higher energy time that works for you.
-
Haha, I was just about to post the same advice. I was also going to suggest having another baby to work on both arms at the same time.
-
If you need to estimate calorie burn you can go with 100 cal per mile.
-
I was going to ask what your goal was but really the answer will almost always be do the 30 minute run rather than 10 minute. That answer applies whether you're looking to improve your speed, improve your cardiovascular abilities, or burn more calories.
-
It's my most common form of exercise. I don't work hard enough at it to improve enough and so I feel like I'm not really a runner. It all depends who you ask. To non-runners I am a runner, to runners I'm probably a good start :)
