I finally had mine today. While I am not in bad health...actually my doctor says I am in great health; blood pressure and cholesterol are perfect and I quit smoking three years ago. I workout five days a week which usually includes quite a bit of running as I just finished training for and completing my very first half…

Working out at Work
I was wondering if anyone has some good exercises to do at work? I used to work in the very back of my office almost by myself. I could get up and do some mountain climbers, lunges, squats or whatever throughout the day. I now sit up in the front office with windows to the lobby. I greet guests and co-workers alike when…

Cyclists - Advice Please

Race Bags
On the morning of a race - I get my Race Bag all set - my race bib, watch, iPod, extra socks or flip flops (depending on the season) among other things. I take out what I need when I get there and the rest stays in the car until I am done. I was wondering what everyone else puts in their race bags? Do you have a special…

Fit Bit
Hello everyone! So I discovered yesterday that my lovely pedometer is not consistently counting my steps. :grumble: Super annoying especially since I joined the June 10,000 challenge. It is a very nice pedometer - a SportLine 360. But if it isn't accurate then it is kind of pointless. I have been reading that a lot of…

Racers: Medal Display?
Good morning all! I just had a question that I wanted to throw out there...for those who race (whether it is for speed - I'm more of a tortoise, LOL - or to accomplish something) where/how do you display your race medals? I have six so far and plan to order a medal hanger very soon. But it got me thinking how do others…

2 Weeks of rest?!?!
Hey everyone! I just came back from the doctor where I was told I tore a muscle near my knee. Lots of pain and no fun. I am suppose to rest as much as possible, keep it elevated and no exercising until it heals...possibly one to two weeks. I am very good about following doctor's orders. But the no working out part has me a…

Your first race...What made you do it?
I was thinking back to my first race (a 5k) and remembering what made me decide to do it...and I was wondering about other people's motivation for racing. Here is mine... Two years ago this May a group of coworkers and myself decided to take part in our local Komen Race for the Cure. We signed up to do the 1 mile walk,…
