I agree with this. The interns at our studio volunteer for a couple of hours once a week and get free classes...might be worth looking in to :) I go to 3-5 classes a week and average 4 or 5. I also teach 1-3 classes a week.

I used to be 'your wife'...very true story...I was a Vegan/vegetarian for the entire time that i have been with hubby, over 8-9 years total...until I read 'The Vegetarian Myth' about 2 years ago...life changing to say the least. Now I am the one that pushed for us to get a beef/chicken and now pork share...and am trying to…

Welcome Laine! My son's name is Layne also:) I am doing Primal/ Paleo due to lactose intolerance and suspected Gluten issue...and hubby has Crohns so this is best for both of us :) I have been tapering off dairy/wheat and am hoping do be doing full up Primal within this week. Just in time for turkey day!

Hubby has Crohns and I have recently started having issues with Gluten so we are in the process of weeding out Gluten right now...I am not excited for the de-tox even though I am excited for the bloating, cramping, etc to go away lol :) We already do a lot of cooking from scratch and whole foods...I am hoping to transition…

i completely agree with this...focus on the present moment and be gentle with yourself, do the poses you can and focus on your instructors instructions... i try to have a snack about 2-3 hours before class and eat a small snack soon after class ends (cheese stick or apple or lara/pure bar). also check your hydration…

welcome:)

pigeon:) my hip flexors are always so tight and this pose really helps stretch them out... I also like when I start to feel comfortable in being able to attain a newish pose...my latest was dolphin and half moon pose:)

me! I live in NN:)

Backstory: Ran XC in high school, ran as part of mandatory fitness and did some small races (5Ks, a 12K, and a 12 person151 mile Relay) while in the military. Started running more consistently in 2005/6 while overseas, this continued when I moved back to the US. First Half in Spring 2009. Planned Half in Fall 2009 until I…

I would say around 70-100oz at work and another 40 oz at home...and I drink around 40 oz during Hot Yoga 2-3 times a week...so 110 to 180 oz depending on the day...I am lazier about it on the weekends tho...

it could be the instertion point where some of the ligaments attach to the bones on the side of your foot...i have had similar pain on the outside of my food after a race due to pronation issues. If ice and stretching isnt helping i dont think that i would run the 5 miler...maybe try swimming for cardio instead this week.…

I find that the only way to committ to morning runs is to run with a partner...the 'accountability' factor gets me up and out the door more times than I can count... This happened to me this morning...I didnt eat well last night at the ball game and was dreading my run, my workout partner didn't let me back out and I was…

this exactly...I agree that I have to run/workout or I lose my mind...and I am working on losing those last 10 baby pounds, but the excuse is getting a little old since he is now 2:(

this is a great group to join http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/94-long-distance-runners I am training for a Half on October 7th...feel free to add me if you like:)

I have a Half coming up the 7th of October and will start my dedicated training in a week or so...need to get new shoes this week and break them in first...

Had a few days where my workouts didnt get done...2074 calories last week...ready to be more consistent this week:)

Peroni Crawlin' Crab Half on October 7th

I'm in:)

BJ's is similar to Costco or Sam's Club...sorry lol:)

guilty...did manage to get in 60 minutes of walking/pushing my 30lb son in his stroller...getting back on track today:)

i'm up for a challenge:)

BJ's has the same special too:)

I burned 3179 calories this week mostly walking and gardening, with a couple of hot yoga classes and a boot camp class thrown in. Hoping to continue with this level of calorie burn and get my eating better under control on the weekends:)

I don't think that the humidity is too bad (but I live in VA and our humidity outside the class is worse than inside the class)...it is warm/hot in the room, but if you arrive 15-20 minutes early you should be acclimated to the heat by the time the class starts...you will sweat a lot, but I find the depth and quality of…

I usually only do the 8K to Half range since hubby works Saturdays so I am only free to 'race' on Sundays...signing up for my next Half this week (October 7th)...It will be my 2nd one this year:) I'm always looking for running buddies:)

i only logged 500 for my 90 min Vinyasa Hot Yoga yesterday since it didnt seem as intense as my regular 60 minute class...

I log 450 for an hour class and 668 for a 90 minute class...these are the sites i use to best guess the calories:) http://www.livestrong.com/article/115471-calories-burned-during-bikram-yoga/ http://www.livestrong.com/article/297874-calories-burned-in-beginners-bikram-yoga/

I'm in:)

I burned 2173 cals last week, which is way more than I thought I would...thanks for all the support...everyone is doing great:)
