I've been able to get out on a few of the nice days for short runs. And I don't mind running in the 30s but I don't enjoy it below that, I don't care for dealing with the slush either. I agree about the wind, too. For biking I'll wait for it to be warmer (50s?) but really looking forward to getting on the bike..

Looks like fun but I won't be back in running shape by then (repeating C2K5), thought about doing the 5K run/walk... Let me know how it goes! I assume they start in waves since trails are a bit narrow.

bd's Mongolian Grill is located in Clearwater Crossing, it's similar to Stir Crazy. The raw food is set up like a salad bar, you choose protein, veggies and sauce then they cook it for you. They'll bring white or brown rice to the table (or both). I haven't been there in a while and don't hear many people talk about it but…

My husband has said many times that he wants to get kayaks and I think it would be fun to have but we just don't have the space in our garage. I see on your profile that you're in Clermont so I assume you plan to kayak on Eagle Creek Reservoir, which is where we would go. I'm interested to know if there are many other…

Thanks, always interested in updating my workout music.

My husband and I are signed up for it. We were hoping a few of our friends would do it as well but not sure they will. I'd be up for trying to get a meeting organized but I don't know if we could run as a team unless we are registered for the same wave (we're scheduled for 11:30). It would be awesome to do it as a team but…

I think doing this as a group would be a lot of fun, count me in!

I wondered how you were keeping track of who you invited and if I had invited the same people. I have no clue how to help but good luck!

I walk the canal/ white river trail during my lunch sometimes but 10:30 is a bit too early for me to get away. We're probably on different parts of the canal, too. I make the loop behind NIFS and Zoo and back to New York ST. Maybe we could try to meet up when the weather is a bit nicer.

Nice link, thanks!

Wow, Mary, congratulations on your weight loss and fitness sucess. I loved the warrior dash and if you doctor releases you, I highly recommend doing it! The DirtyGirl Mud run looks like a lot of fun, too! I'm also planning to have my son join me for either Color Me Rad or the Color Run, we were going to do the Color Me Rad…

I go to the Pike Y, it's a small Y in an office park and pretty pricey since it isn't a full Y (but the same cost as other branches). It's the closest gym and has what I regularly need. I just wish they had a pool and better variety of programs for both kids and adults. They do a good job of doing what they can with the…

Thanks for the info! I just upgraded to a smart phone (vs basic phone + ipod touch) so I've been trying to decide which app to go with to track runs now that I have GPS capability. I'll look into Runtastic :)

http://wheneddiemetsalad.com/ When Eddie Met Salad is a salad place close to IUPUI campus, there are a few other locations around the north side of Indy. I ate at Souplantation in San Diego and it was better than When Eddie Met Salad but this is a good option for Indy. Would love to know of more...

Hi Everyone, Welcome to the group! I live on the NW side of Indy, close to Eagle Creek and work in reasearch on the IUPUI campus.

I love running in Eagle Creek Park, both road and trails. The main roads have a bike/run lane and drivers are (mostly) careful and aware on side roads. Trails are well maintained and have lots of small hills. (Just FYI, bikes are not allowed on trails in case someone is thinking of biking there)

Good link. Not sure that I'll do many runs but pretty sure I'll do the July triathlon at Eagle Creek. Are you going to do the 5K or 10K for the Shamrock?

If anyone is interested in doing the Spartan Race in Laurel, IN on April 27th, there is a groupon for $39 entry. - available until Wednesday. There are other fees when you register and you have to pay for parking as well - exact cost should be listed at :…

That looks like fun!

Great video! Congratulations on a great year!

Welcome, to you both! I'm looking to find my motivation again. It was fun and almost easy when I had 'momentum' but I've been struggling to get back on track. Love having MFP to help when I need it.

I had only been on MFP through mobile so I didn't check in for the challenges. Just did the 25 burpees - did some crunches earlier but didn't keep track - not close to 100 though, I'll do those tomorrow to catch up.

That does sound interesting, I'd be up for it.

Hopefully some others can give good starting advice, I didn't follow any training plans when I did them years ago so I don't have much advice other than to make sure you train the bike-run, the legs are noodles when you get off the bike. I read a book about swim technique (by Terry Laughlin) and practiced drills but when…

I will be doing sprint tris this summer, probably 2 of the ones at Eagle Creek. I did a few sprint tris many years ago and really considered doing one in August this year but wasn't quite to the performance level I wanted to be for spending that much on registration. I did my other races on a road bike but it's in bad…

more excuses, sick this week :/. So far this week my only workout was tennis last night (at least the appetite has been gone so calories have been in check). Feeling a lot better today so I plan to do the 30 day shred tonight. Good luck with your 5K tomorrow, coolhand.

I guess it's a good thing that the doctor wasn't too concerned, hope the follow up testing gives you good results and all the information you need. Thursday: 30DS, day 2 Friday: 30DS, day 3 Saturday: ran for 30 minutes Sunday: ran with some walking for 50 minutes

about time, right? ;) lots of lunges - guess my quads don't really remember them because they were screaming, felt good though! day 2 tonight how did the dr. appointment go?

30 day shred level 1, day 1 plus extra ab work

Sorry to hear this, hopefully the news from the doctor today is better than you expect. I hope your foot gets better quickly. Injuries suck, it's always hard to balance recovery with maintaining fitness level. I injured my foot in July it seems to have finally recovered now that I've been working out less (not what I was…
