Does anyone run in Brooks Levitate?
The lace design doesn’t allow for a traditional ankle locking tie and I’m experiencing a lot of heel slippage. Any suggestions on a more stable tying method for these shoes? Thanks!

Anyone with Achilles issues? What shoes?
I tend towards light, neutral shoes, but ever since trying the Brooks Launch 3 earlier this year, I've had nearly constant pain in my Achilles :( I've read that I should wear something with less cushioning and a higher heel drop? Can anyone suggest a few brands/models I should consider? I'm currently marathon…

Has anyone run Disney before?
The marathon is a week from Sunday. I probably could have trained a little better - I got lazy with some of my shorter runs - but, overall, I'm feeling healthy, strong, and confident, with a touch of terror - LOL! I have no time goal other than to never see the dreaded pace flags. Any tips for race day that are specific to…

Disappointment . . .
Yesterday, I ran my 3rd half marathon. I was not as prepared as I should have been . . . I lost 2 weeks of training to an injury, then it was slow to get back into it (I'd say another solid 2 weeks where my planned distance was cut short due to my hip beginning to hurt).

I ran my first 5K that Fall and was hooked, each race longer than the last. I'm now registered for a full in…

Marathon training - how much time?
I signed up for a full, though I have the option to drop to the half. I can run a half in just under 2.5 hours. Today is June 30th . . . following a schedule of 2 short runs/1 long run each week and cross training, is a full by mid-October a realistic expectation? Thanks!

What do I need to "up" to lose inches?
I've been on a 5-6 day/week gym schedule since February. I do 3 days a week of a crossfit-type program. On off days, I tend to focus on cardio . . . I run, use the Arc Trainer, or occasionally do Spinning or Zumba. I also do TRX (within the crossfit and on its own). In the 1st 5 months, I lost 4-7" from my bust, waist,…
