  • I am also hypothyroid. It has also been hard for most runner this year due to the heat and humidity. My last run was pretty good because I ran when the sun was setting, but the previous run, I felt like I was running in a sea of glue. Keep working it and re-evaluate how you run in cooler weather. Your medication may also…

  • I hope to get 50 miles this month. I had an uneven start. 8/2...2.12 miles. My husband was sick. So I offered to cut the grass, leaving very little day light for a run. Better some miles than none. 8/3....3.1 miles.....Getting it in before it got dark. 8/7....5.27 miles. Late start with my run. Wanted to get 6 miles, but…

  • Thanks for the Cliff's notes version of the events. It sucks that you did all that planning, and I am sure that upper management knew all of the time that they would be shutting the doors. I actually love your answer to the interviewer. You are so quick on your feet with your responses. Good luck with your interviews.…

  • Oh yeah, I forgot about that! Too funny! What I also remember and still makes me laugh. I think it was last July when the discussion was about hot dogs, and @MobyCarp was welcoming someone new to the group. I am of course paraphrasing, but he said something like it is a welcoming group with a lot of good running advice,…

  • I just learned a couple of days ago that MobyCarp passed away. I am so sorry to hear of this. He was such an asset to this group. When I was getting ready for work a couple of nights ago, I was trying to catch up with posts (always behind) when I read a post about someone fighting a fever, and had felt so awful that he…

  • It doesn't get easier, but you will start enjoying it more. The most important thing is to be consistent and don't be hard on yourself if you miss a day of training or have a bad food day.

  • My husband and I had a conversation today about "needs vs wants". And I get it, especially being on a tight budget that you can't always have what you want. However, your husband could have done a better job of lessening the blow. I can't explain men. My husband doesn't buy me gifts for birthday, Christmas, anniversary,…

It happened in April....she and her husband are still grieving. It is an extremely difficult time for them. She has mentioned…

  • So excited that you have been listening to frogs. Very worried about our amphibian friends, which are projected to become extinct in 10 years. I can't remember the source (sorry). I was pretty stunned at the time that I heard or read it.

  • Good luck at the new job! So brave to be changing course after 20+ years. I too am thinking about a job change but a little too chicken (20 years at the same hospital). So I greatly admire your courage. It was humid yesterday when I ran....not so much hot, but it felt extremely difficult to pick up my feet and propel…

  • So keeping up with this month's thread better than most month's threads. @katharmonic ...sorry about the corral mixup. It looks like you did the best in an adverse situation. With the race being so short, it is hard to make up ground when you have to get around walkers. When I ran the mini-marathon last year, I had to come…
