Everyday runners?
I understand that rest days are important- I usually give myself one to two days off between runs. I'm only a beginner, trying to get back into shape, but I was wondering, what about those people you drive past at the same time everyday? How is it okay for some people to be daily runners but not everyone? Is it just a…

Future marathoner
I fit into the future category of this group and I'm wondering about marathon training programs? I'm hoping to run a marathon in April 2014 but I'm really a beginner runner. I'm using the C25K program currently- my first 5k in years should be in early July. I then plan to do the C210k program but I'm nervous that I won't…

Lost Motivation

It was going great! I finished the 2nd week feeling great and BAM! Finals time. I took a week off to be able to handle finals…

Knee/Joint pain
Hey, I'm just starting running and I want to address this issue. I have pretty bad knee/joint pain. They often crack or feel like they need to. They hurt until I do crack them. I take joint pills that are supposed to help rebuild cartilage and it does help but it's not perfect. I'd really appreciate some tips or ideas.

Tips for long distance running?
So I've recently made a change to a healthier lifestyle. I've been going to the gym for about a month or more now and I've been able to increase my pace and even go from speed walking to jogging. I try to go to the gym 5 days every week for an hour but as a college student who works overnights, has a boyfriend and family,…

That time of the month
Does anyone have trouble sticking to their diet during their time of the month? What are things you do to help? What are your weak points? I always crave chocolate! Have a few bags of it in my room. And salt- which makes me get fries on lunch. Nothing too damaging as I never overdo the portions but doing this every day for…

How do you feel about people knowing your weight?
My boyfriend's co-workers, for whatever reason, were guessing how much i weigh (mind you, i've never really met them). They all guessed around a certain number but my boyfriend told them i weigh more than that. In reality, I was and am closer to their number than his. I need to see them for the first time this saturday (my…
