Training for LA
Today starts week seven of training for the LA marathon. I was training for the LB marathon last year but I suffered an injury and had to stop training around week five. I was wondering if any of y'all have ran the LA marathon in the past and/or are running it this year. I'd love to have more runner friends. (:

Local Friends? So Cali!
Hi. I am hoping to find some local mfp-ers. I do not have a big circle of friends (stay at home mom AND full-time student) and the ones I do have are not fit! I am a runner and I am really getting into weight lifting (thanks new rules of lifting for women). I'd love to have some local friends to maybe hit the gym with…

Breaks In Between Stages
Looking through my training logs, I am excited to say that I finish up with Stage 1 on the 19th (that's including both special workouts). How much rest do y'all usually take between stages? I was thinking of 2 weeks and also do my EM2WL cut then too. I can go back to focusing solely on running for a little bit. Does that,…

Help!
Hi y'all. I am currently in the midst of training for my first marathon on Oct. 7th and I think I may have an injury. For the first five and a half weeks of training, I was purely running on the balls of my feet. I thought it was the best way to run and I ended up getting blood blisters on the inside of my right foot. I…

Fuel Belts?
I am currently in the beginning of training for my first marathon. I did a half last Oct and when I run I just hold a 16 oz water bottle in my hand. I was wondering, since I have never ran more than 13.10 miles (without fuel stations (: ) if I should get a fuel belt. I never used gels or anything when I was training for my…

I had ran a half marathon. I was lifting (lightly!) and I thought I was healthy. Surprise surprise, I slowly started eating more and…
