Races that “Discourage” headphones or don’t allow them
I found a half marathon that I want to race in, and I was really excited until I read in the frequently asked Qs that headphones are “highly discouraged”. This kind of put me out, as it’s a huge part of my love of running to be able to listen to upbeat motivating music. This would be my second half and I’m just curious…

30 Day Shred/ Ripped in 30
Hey, it’s been a while since I have seen one of these threads! Anyone want to do a round with me?! The DVDs are $10 in any Walmart or on iTunes. Add me if you do!

When you miss a planned run...
Curious what other people do, do you tack the miles onto another run if you have already taken your rest days and try to still reach your goal for miles that week, or do you just skip that run/lose the miles.

Exercise and hunger
I am sure this has been asked a million times, but I need some comradeship please! I get hungrier after exercise, more so than the extra calories I earn. How do you handle this, I am assuming I can’t be alone here :) help!

We travel for work, and many times are…

Safe running app?
I have seen it mentioned before but can't remember where, is there an app that syncs your gps to someone else's phone (example: my husband's phone) so they know where you are "just in case"?

Luvo frozen dinners
I have been having a really tough time eating within my calories lately... I just gave up for a little while unfortunately. Any ways I wanted to try and get back on track but don't have a lot of motivation so I thought I would try some frozen meals that way I can just microwave them... and the serving size would be already…

Ranch dip made with yogurt
Holy cow has anyone else tried this?!?! As a ranch fiend I just died and went to heaven. On another note I also tried the Halo Peanut butter cup flavor tonight and it was so good I ate the entire pint!!!! But it's okay because it was all within my calories :) plus it met my protein goal for the day, what a cool deal!

Dogs and Running
I just recently started bringing one of my dogs on runs with me. His name is Artoo and he is a black and white border collie about three years old. I'm only just getting back into running so we are starting out small together 1/2 miles right now. Mostly I just want to hear from others that run with their dogs! Tips and…

Unexpected walk!
The only thing worse than losing my phone... is that the steps I took walking all over the park looking for it don't get recorded and not knowing how long I looked since I don't have a watch!!

Runners, do you run when legs are sore?
Hi! I don't do strength exercises very often, so when I do I get very sore (even if it is not much of a workout). I am trying to start doing strength workouts more often, and yesterday I did some squats and lunges. My question is do my runner friends run if they have sore legs from a work out?
