Running After Eye Surgery
The first local 5K of the year is April 19. I walked it last year prior to starting C25K and would like to run it this year - kind of coming full circle. On April 4 I'm having PRK corrective eye surgery. The recovery for PRK is longer than LASIK. I've been told the first 3-4 days will be "pretty painful" (although I'll…

Today I had on running tights with shorts over them (because my shorts have the pockets I need and my tights don't), with a light long…

Treadmill Pace Conversions

Friday 11/15 Weigh-In: Final Week of Fall Challenge
Final week of the fall challenge. Cindylu, I think we're the last two diehards standing. It was fun while it lasted. :smile: I hoped to lose 13.5 pounds. I lost 8.5. Didn't quite get there, but still very respectable.
