  • I've been out of x-ray school for 11 years now and I'm currently a registered CT tech. Most community colleges offer the radiology program, which is normally 2 years. Ultra sound is another 9-18 months depending on the school and/or specialty. I was lucky enough to get on the job training for CT and landed a great job! My…

  • OMG I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks like that!! I've opened a box of Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies and have PAID my children to do something with the rest of them before I'd eat them all!!! (My kids got their dad's gene's luckily... tall and skinny!)

  • http://www.rei.com/product/796283/camelbak-quick-grip-bottle This is what I have.... it seems to do the trick for smaller runs. I use a fuel belt (the belt with smaller bottles) for half marathons. REI says they're sold out, but you can find ones like this at most running and sporting goods stores. I think NATHAN also has…

  • Couch to 5K is a great place to start! I always suggest it to my newly running friends. I agree with checking out a 5K in your area. They seem to be EVERYWHERE this time of year. Your local running store will have lots of information on them. Fleet Feet is a national running store (I think?). They always have a good list!…

  • :sick: My best friend and I once ate a 1lb bag of pretzel M&M's when they first came out, to prove that there were no yellow (or orange, I forget now) ones in the bags back then.... (Why didn't we just dump them in a bowl? Hind sight is 20 /20.). Little did we know, you can go to the website and see what colors are in each…

  • Club Fitness here in the St. Louis area is the best deal I have found, and I have been a member of 3 different gyms in the past 8 years!! I pay the $19.99 for the 24 hour access and unlimited classes, but my "main" club (the one closest to my house) doesn't have spinning, so I'd have to go to a different one but no…

  • I had a problem with shin spints during a half marathon (Don't get excited, I run 4 mins, walk 1, and so on.... it works for me.) It felt like my muscle was being ripped off my fibula. I invested in a pair of calf sleeves. I got them from Running Warehouse and they are just compressoin sleeves that are made of neoprene…

  • I too, have the Garmin 305, and the Polar f4. I always use the Polar HRM for running at the gym, or doing my DVD's. I use the Garmin for running outdoors to keep on pace. I wish I only had to use ONE, but what am I going to do? I prefer using the HRM's calories burned as opposed to MFP's calculations of what I burned.…
