Droid + HRM
I've been toying with the idea of getting an HRM, but also don't want to add any more gadgets to my arsenal than necessary. Decided that since my phone is with me on all my runs, it made sense to find something that is compatible there. I have the Droid Razr, and have seen 2 straps that seem to be compatible - the Zephyr…

Ama ebi nutritional info?
Hey all - I'm headed to sushi with my husband tonight and trying to pre-plan a bit. One of the dishes I typically order is ama ebi - basically the shrimp tail is served raw over rice (nigiri style) - which I can calculate no problem.

Jillian Michaels: 6 Week Six-Pack (and sciatica)
I have (what has now become) a recurring issue with sciatic inflammation. Chiropractors aren't able to resolve, and I've been checked out by my GP (including x-rays) to make sure it's not a bulging disc or anything more serious causing it. At this point, everything's clear, and I've been given 2 instructions: 1) Ibuprofen…

I started C25k a few weeks ago, and had to take a hiatus due to an injury (not running related). When I picked it back up again about 2-3 weeks ago, I was able to run for 8-10 minutes, so I skipped to weeks 4 and 5. My legs/muscles seem to do fine with this amount of running, but I haven't been able to get past a 12 minute…

Swordfish recipe? Anyone?
I don't have much experience cooking fish. But - in the name of health, I've been trying to venture out and find fish recipes that I like enough to make at least one fish/week at home. So, I picked up a couple of swordfish steaks on sale. Now what? Anyone have good swordfish recipes to share? Thanks!

I used it on a bed of romaine, topped…

Eggplant mini-pizzas
There seemed to be some interest in this, so thought I'd share with the whole class :wink: Slice an eggplant into 1/4" thick slices, brush with a bit of olive oil, bake at 400 for about 30 minutes (flip once). They'll get kind of chewy.... Top with a bit of sauce and whatever toppings you want (my fave is italian sausage &…

I created it one evening so that after we went out for a walk, it'd be ready. 2- 10 oz bags of Spinach (It will look like A LOT) 8 cloves garlic chicken breasts olive oil parmesan salt/pepper Put the spinach in a casserole dish (mine is about 10x10 and 6" deep) Put…
