How often do you wash your hair?
I know a lot of people swear up and down you should only wash your hair two to three times a week, however, if you are working out is that feasible or fair to the people around you?

Tough Mudder SoCal
To anyone considering doing a Tough Mudder plan a backup outfit. I just did the SoCal Tough Mudder on Sunday and OMG! On Saturday people were getting sun burns, on Sunday it was snowing.

Greek Yogurt - thank you MFP!
MFP is my gospel! If everyone on MFP told me to quit my job and move my family to the Canadian Artic I would! In a heart beat! If you say it then it must be the way!

What if I never firm up???
I run a lot, but my legs still have so much flub on them! Why hasn't the muscle fully emerged itself yet? Are some people just doomed to be soft??? Any advice (or support)??? :sad:

Beat my time!
During my 10k this weekend I noticed there was nobody behind me. Very depressing when that happens. I was the zombie bait! :frown: However, I put that out of my mind and focused on my own run. I knew I was making good time. I came up to the 2 mile marker and was at 20 minutes. Came up to the 3.3 mile and was at 33…

I have no idea when this started. Its been awhile, but fortunatly, the weight has come off faster than it went on! Thats a perk right? When I first started with MFP I thought a 5k was 5 miles. Never thought I would be able to run that. Since then I have ran a handfull of 5ks and two official 10ks. I run between 4 to 6…

Do you log all exercise?
I only log my exercise that I would actually call exercise. For example running and 30 day shred gets logged. House cleaning and yard work do not. This weekend I used the weed whacker on my whole backyard then raked it all up. It was a lot of work, but I felt like I shouldn't log it. I feel like once I start logging my…
