Labor Day Half Marathon
Well... this is my first race since the Flying Pig Marathon this past May 1st. I did NOT train like I should have over the summer... my big lame excuse was because of the HEAT! :wink: BUT... my son's girflriend is running it with me, and we're both SUPER excited! Would love to hear of anyone else planning upcoming running…

Temptation of giving up
Damn the days when I feel like throwing in the towel... giving up or giving in! :explode:

Just not that hungry
Well, nearly every day... I'm doing my best to stay within the daily calorie budget here. Sometimes I take into consideration the calories burned during a workout, sometimes I don't - because like this morning, I finished entering my data from last night.

Pigs R Flying!
It took me a few days, but I finally got my blog posted about the Flying Pig Marathon (my thoughts anyway)...

Hidden Veggie Mac & Cheese!
Okay, I found it!! This is the recipe I mentioned earlier on another thread... it's not MY recipe, but I've tried it, and it's GREAT!! It gave me a whole new appreciation for CAULIFLOWER... which I hated from childhood! Mark Bittman posted this on Runner's World. Definitely worth trying! :happy: Angie Creamy Cauliflower…

Nervous Runner...
I'm wrestling with pre-marathon jitters today (well, this past week to be honest). I've trained well, but even though I KNOW that I'm capable of getting across that finish line... it's sort of like being pregnant & getting ready for delivery! You KNOW it's going to be tough - one of the toughest things you'll ever do - but…

Runners??
I'm getting ready to run my second marathon this coming weekend... I've done one 26.2 back in 2008, and have run many half marathons. I also have been doing some trail running during my training season this year! Are there any Runners here who are struggling to lose a few (or not so few) pounds... or trying to keep their…

Good Morning All!
I'm Angie... just wanting to stop in & introduce myself! I've been using the myfitnesspal app for a few months now, and completely love it! I've readjusted my calories & weight loss goals this morning, and decided to fill in my profile info & introduce myself. I'd love to connect with others here who are on the same sort…
