In New York - The Tunnel to Towers run is held the last Sunday of Sept. every year. Starts in Brooklyn and runs through the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, through the Battery Park Esplanade and ends near the World Trade Center site. It's in honor of a fireman who ran with full fire gear along that route to get to the towers on…

Buy a bucket and put it on the scale to get a base weight for the bucket. After barfing, weight the bucket again. Subtract the weight of the bucket and now you know the weight of what you barfed up. Now, if you ate chicken and it appears to be mostly chicken that you barfed up, subtract that much chicken from what you…

Congratulations on getting out there. I purely love running. I got back in to running last year and have done that and calorie counting through MFP to lose the weight I've lost. Sounds like you did well on your first run. As for time vs. distance...I do both now, but do what works for you. I like your idea of using…

Eat whatever works for you.

I would say that it depends on how far you run and your own fitness level. If 5-6 miles is an easy run, then you may want to run and hold off on eating. If 5-6 miles is a long run for you right now, then you might want to eat something light. As your fitness level starts to get back to where it used to be those things will…

First a question for you...do you prefer one of those apps over the other? I use Runkeeper myself but have never tried Runtastic. If you're halving the calories you may not be giving yourself enough credit for the calories you actually burned. I usually subtract the calories that body would have burned anyway. (i.e. My BMR…

We can still be friends. Girls Translation - I want to break up with you (but don't want to hurt your feelings) Guy Translation - She still wants to be with me but wants more attention from me Hurting his feelings a little now will save you both alot of hurt feelings in the future. You can't break up with someone without…

You asked the question and are now upset that you're not getting the responses you want. It's not the 12 years difference in age that would be an issue IMO. It's the fact that she's only 17 years old. If you're 42 and she's 30...go for it...but she's a teenage girl you're a grown man. If you didn't want honest opinions,…

Just one week may be too early to really tell. 1.5 lbs could be the result of gaining more weight in muscle than you've lost in fat, It could be just the natural fluctuation of your weight. It could be the clothes you were wearing when you weighed yourself each time. It could be a combination of several things. If you…

I'm doing the Cap City Half Marathon in Columbus, OH on May 4.

I try, over the course of a week, to keep my calories even or under my goal. I don't try to "make up" overages in a single day, but then again, when I go over I don't usually go just a little bit over either.

Done

I'm in

If you're afraid of discouragement then take the picture but don't look at them. Then take a picture when you've gotten to your goal weight and look at them side by side then. That way you'll have the before pic and be able to truly see the change.

Are you really being vocal because it keeps you accountable or because you're wanting people to notice? Take the compliments as they are meant to be...compliments.

Thanks for all the kind comments. I was very in to running back in 2008-2009 then stopped for a while, so I'm glad to be back running and be back to a weight that allows me to run.

The Half that I ran in May I finished in 3:08. In October my time was 2:16. In both cases the course was open for 4 hours, so that would require a per mile pace of about 18-18:30 per mile.
