I listen to music but I also time myself. I have several routes I take and know how fast I can do each one so I "race" myself to see how much time I can knock off. Sometimes I go exploring and look for different routes. I also run trails. It also helps if you have an event to train for, maybe push yourself to do longer…

5k's can be a bit like a big party. People with joggers, little kids, costumes- it depends on the event. My daughter and I did a 5k bubble run a couple weekends ago and there was a guy dressed like a shower! just have fun!

Hi! You can add me as a friend if you like. Some of the friends I have now have quit logging in so I'm starting to feel like I'm talking to myself half the time when I post something!

I saw one at a race this summer- WTF (where's the finish) Also- The faster you run the faster your done

Hi all, I'm 45 soon to be 46. I have two teenage girls (luck me!). I enjoy exercising, but struggle with eating healthy. I still love all the deep fried junk from my youth! I was always that super skiney person that could eat anything, well no longer. Now I find myself really needing to think about my food decisons, and…

Glad to see you have a plan of action. It can be overwhelming if you try to take on too much at once ( I tend to do that!). Maybe set a goal for how many weeks you are going to change your eating and then once you have ment that begin to add in some execise. When you start thinking about exercise remember that something…

Hi, I would love to be part of some mutual *kitten* kicking! Looking for some new friends as seeral of mine have dropped out. Check out my profile and see if you think we would be a good fit.:flowerforyou:

Hey back at ya! Glad to see your thinking about your health while your young! It is so easy to get into bad habits and then go through "heck" trying to break them. I'm looking for some new friends as some of mine have slacked off and are no longer posting. I've been a bit of a flake the past couple of months so needs some…

what was the pirates other career option than a pirate? ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYY Or maybe he wanted to be an ARRRRRRtist!

Here is my update. 9/3- 160.8 9/10/ - 160.4 9/17- 159.2 9/24 1.6 lbs lost so far!

OOPS! Forgot to post my weight yesterday. Started at 160.8. Current as of 9/10 160.4. I'll take the baby step.

Just look at it this way- he had no clue that 20 was you size, so he thinks you are smaller than that!

Bet you had a blast! I love all the people when ever I go race. Totally feel pumped up and happy for the rest of the day. Stick with it, sounds like you may have been born to be a runner!

Hi- Love the attitude! Feel free to friend me. I love to work out, but make poor food choices so am really working on eating healthy. Would love to have more friends to go down this path together.

Hi all, Maybe now I will have the motivation to get my sleepy self to the gym in the morning!! I just saw this so am going to jump in a little late! 9/3- 160.8 9/10/ 9/17 9/24

Hi all- survived my camping trip with my spastic dog! Miles for this week were 32. Total for the month is 84!

Here is my total for the week- swimming, walking, running and biking- 52 miles so far. Going camping this week so will get some hikes in!

I've always heard that if you will be lifting weights it is best to eat to help repair the muscles- think protein foods. However, if you are planning on doing cardio then it is best to eat afterwards to get the best fat burn. Not sure how true this is. I'm like you and would rather eat after a work out, just seems easier…

1/7 5K- 3.2 miles and dog walking 1 so 4.2 today.

Sounds fun! I will be in Mexico the last week so will try to get a bunch of miles in before I go and veg on the beach!

I have relatives all over - some in the Boise area, some in Troy (near Moscow) and a couple live in a little town called Weippe. Your doing better than me with a picture. I never take any so don't even know if I have anything to upload. I live in Colorado so also enjoy the mountains and being outdoors. This will be fun.…

Hey I LOVE Idaho! All my relatives live out there. I also need to loose about 25 pounds. I've been telling myself I would loose the "baby weight" for the last 13 years.... This time it will happen! I've lost in the past and then pack it right back on with my poor eating habits- my husband says I eat like I'm still 16! Love…

HI, I just joined a Triathalon club a few weeks ago and we do swim workouts a couple of times a week. I'm finding that when I swim on my own I just do nice steady laps- when I train with the coach he mixes it up, sprints, varies the striokes we do as well as doing shorter distances multiple times at a faster pace. This…
