Finishing an event, the feeling, the t-shirt, the medal, the other people. I think it has a lot to do with when you train, you are typically alone. Then you show up at an event, you realize you were never alone, it's a whole thing! The first time I ever did a 5K, way back in the 80's, I knew I would always want to run.…

thanks for the help there walking definitely gives the that "spot" in your butt cheek a rest. When you don't have to lift your knee your glute (or whatever) gets to relax for a bit, and it doe's recover (or whatever) I don't know science, but I know about running run with a new runner, let them run for a bit, and then poke…

FL runner here too = a shirt gets sweaty and wet and is much more cooling than bareback But in the winter months I run bareback my girly will run in a sports bra during the week when we run at sunrise, but on Saturdays we sleep in, and she will wear a shirt to not get burned. Unless you are running in a mall, I doubt…

the thing as a new runner is your illiotibial muscle and band. IT Syndrom. This is the muscle in your butt cheek that lifts your knee when you run. It pulls up, it is a faitly small muscle, with a long band that goes down the outside of your leg and attaches at the knee. This is an intricate muscle,, band, and soft tissue.…

finally I can stop reading this thread about suffering and just go ahead and agree with someone! haha i know this- when I go to St Lucia to get married, at an all inclusive, I am going to get up each day, run the island, swim, climb, jump and wave my arms all day. I am going to eat as much lobster and steak, and whatever…

for the Christian deali-io I think they put it this way-- the greatest among you will be the least they stole that from hinduism though, many will say. ok, I'm out not a religious person at all, but I do strive for spirituality

being humble is to realize you've got nothing coming. You are special, but you ain't no big deal. when you got nothing coming, whatever you do get- like food, friends, and interaction on the internet, you can feel grateful for it = happy or you can lack humility, and think you are owed and deserve things = ungrateful,…

At Publix the hard boiled eggs are really good. They are already boiled and peeled and the same cost as cage free.

not going to get into all the yada yada, but wanted to throw out there a thing to watch for with swimming It makes you feel crazy hungry, if you swim distance of any type. It is more dehydration. Especially when you get a public pool that is typically near 85 degrees. You are sweating like crazy but don't realize it,.…

the child playing example reminded me of something my Sifu often tell us. Strive for zero, for nothingness. As a baby we start at 0. We then learn a few things and try to up our value, become a 1 a 2 a5 and so forth. As some point we find the value is not an add on, but a realizing we alone are enough, a zero. And we start…

I make 5 bags of smoothie mix each Sunday, so in the morning I can just do the blending. Just cut up all the veggies and fruits, and bag them.

For me, at this point in my life, I am 46...... I realize something that makes me happy is knowing that phases, or stages of life are the way of life. Life changes, evolves.... I remember being in my youth and thought I would surf forever. I remember being an active Dad, and thought my children defined me. Then athletics,…

Get out and live. Find your thing and get out there and do it. What I mean is you've lost some weight, you feel better and maybe it's time ot do stuff that you could not do before that you always wanted to. I've done everything from distance swimming, to Ironman, to adventure races. Right now I play softball 2 nights a…

the only thing sexier than a girl walking into the weight room, is a girl walking out all pumped up!

hopefully she is reconsidering that not the best idea review and C2Marathon plan and you can see the sense of it oh my I am getting caught up in this again... haha I have done multiple Ironman events, trained so many new runners I can't even count. At the YMCA we used to train groups for charity marathon events, and I will…

I've stayed out of this for a long time, but I am also your friend and watching you. I want to say this publically so these goiod folks can potential add in. This "Zero Error" is why I believe the C25K is not the best. It is trying to ramp you up to a longer continuous run. then if you go with a transition to 10K it will…

me and my girl have talked about it a lot, and neither of us likes the thinking that the other is turned on by someone else we even have an agreement not to comment on other people's bodies there is no reason for her to hear me say some chick is pretty. And why would I want to say that, knowing it can only make her feel…

just talked to my Sifu he is black belt Kungfu, 5th degree TKD, and master Tai Chi he Said - "Saturday is the solstice, and I only strive to do a single Sun Solutation in 108 minutes!" " it is a focused, strength that we long for" hmmm, imagine stretching a 2 minute set of moves into a 108 minutes! That would truly be a…

bottom line, a good one take about 2 minutes = 216 minutes of controlled breathing, stretching and who knows what else comes along. This is hard core!!!!!! to the max What is the nutrition plan for this? a 3+ hour fast? I am seriously interested in understanding. Check local areas, and calling my Tai Chi Sifu regarding…

HOLY SHEEEEYAHT!!! excuse the pun are we talking 108 in a row? This would be an endurance event. Or is it 108 within the 24 hour Solstice? I'm totally down with this...... what a great thing to do 2 X per year. I'm really checking this out! Just in case - here is a Sun Salutation video. Call it a burpee times 1,0000000…
