Well, I just ran the longest run yet. 6 miles!!!! I did it in 60:21. I had to stop 4 times to stretch my legs (think I was a little dehydrated), but I did it! A little slow, but I did it!!

4 oz chicken breast 2c spinach 1/2 c. cucumber slices with peel 2slices tomato 1oz baby carrots sprinkle of slivered almonds sprinkle of parmesean cheese 1 tbsp homemade lite ranch dressing toasted whole grain bread w/ 1tsp olive oil YUMMY salad!!! all about 350 cals

Just want to say that I LOVE this club. I get lots of motivation and inspiration from all you guys!! Thank You!!!!:flowerforyou: Got 4 miles in this morn in exactly 35 minutes. I just decided to do half marathon (I think?) so I'm really nervous. I am 5 months postpartum and an battling Graves disease( overactive thyroid),…

Yuck- I hate hill workouts. Great job!! Did 5 miles this morn at 45:05. Slow but I'lm getting better!!

Got 4.4 miles in last night late!! :happy: Hope everyone continues to heal after injuries!!!!

2 miles and weights for me today! Hope all the injured recover quickly!!!:flowerforyou:

Had a knee scare 2 yrs ago after baby #2 - chondromalacia, week quads, different shoes, etc. Anyway, I had the same type people preaching about running being bad- blah blah blah-- I jusst had baby #3 in Dec. and I'm already up to 5 miles with no knee problems because i corrected and use preventative methods. All that…

Got 4 miles in today!! :happy:

:happy: Happy May day everyone!!! Exciting news for me!!!!!!---- I did 5 miles for the first time this morn.!!!! My time was 45:01. Yaaaay for me. Knee hurts a little behind kneecap, though :grumble: ; don't like that, since my goal is to someday do a 1/2 marathon. I thought I did pretty good on my time.

4 miles this morning!

my gosh,....... that's fast for anyone!!!! I've been proud of my 341/2 minute --4 mile run.

My all time best 4 miles in 34:39 min.!!!!! I'm so excited for myself!!! I have now officially beat my hubby by more than a minute--- it feels great!!

Wow! That's great. I'm trying to get to that point. My highest so far is 4 miles. That is the best feeling afterwards when you succeed in pushing yourself a little further!!

Well, I was supposed to do a long run today, but I only did 4miles and my time was slow. I just was not feeling it today. I was achy and crampy in my legs. Oh well, another day. :ohwell:

Oooooh! Babysitter sounds wonderful! Ball tourney for us this weekend. :grumble: Have a blast! Did an easy 31/2 miles today. Will do a long run tomorrow or Sunday. Will be glad to get this weight off so running will get easier!!! I must be patient with 1 lb a week. :explode:

Don't do this for your wedding!! Do this for you and your health and your longevity(sp?). You need to change your lifestyle. Doing this for anything other than what I listed will only get you a temporary weight loss and a 'quick fix' , which is what everyone wants these days. You have to change the way you think about food…

Been quit for 8 years, so if I can do it you can too. Hopefully, the feel better feeling will keep you motivatied to stay quit forever. That's what kept me going. I still crave every now and then, but my health is alway more important and on my mind!!!!

THANKS!

On a tempo run, someone explain to me what a 4 X1600 with 800 jog means. I'm new to training for races and am having a hard time understanding what those numbers mean exactly.

I just flood and have a hard time, and I feel bad- cramps, exhaustion, etc.

4 miles for me today? Just curious-- how do you ladies do on your runs when you are having your monthly friend?

I finally got a run in today. Only 3.75 miles --- got to deal with the kiddos. :grumble:

:drinker: Just completed 4 miles for the first time in 37 minutes!!! Yay, My goal is to get to 6 miles!

Thanks!!! That helps alot!!!

Someone please explain the tempo run. I have read and read about it but just don't understand it.:huh:

Spelling: (whining)

AMEN!!! I, too, get so tired of the wining!! Well, buck up and change if you really want to!!!!! I'm doing it every day of my life!!!

solve that problem and get 10-15 pound weights. It will increase your metabolism, and hopefully your dog wont be able to steal them!!!:wink:

figure out what type of pronator you are, then get the correct shoes. you can go to runners world and do a questionaire about your shoes. for example, do you tend to run on the outside of your feet or do you pronate inward. or yoou could be a medium pronator. I am an underpronator, and run on the outside of my feet. I got…

i got one and i asked them what was in it, They said just coffee and whatever i wanted in it. Therefore, its only 5 cals. i ordered mine with a splash of milk and a splenda. its in the mfp database as SB's iced coffee with sugar free syrup-- only 5 cals. hope this helps!:smile:
