Shoe troubles
So I have running shoes to keep my feet neutral while running. But if I am wearing them while doing a video or exercise class, the side-to-side exercises (jumping jacks, side lunges, ski-leap-whatever they're called) then it kills my feet and legs. So I bought some cross trainers when I was doing Insanity. Those make the…

HRM vs FitBit
I have a New Balance one that I bought from Target about two years ago. The rubber part of the chest strap that latches (for lack of better words) has broken. I can still use it but I need to think about getting a new one. I've seen a lot of people suggest different HRM's but more recently, I've seen alot of talk about the…

All or nothing...or in moderation?
I'm an all or nothing kind of person. It's easier for me to totally stay away from anything that is yummy but bad for me than to have them in moderation. I'd like to think this willpower is a strength, but it makes me feel weak because I can't have "just one". Is anyone else like this?

If not the track, then where?
Ok, so a while back, I was going to the track on a regular basis but when I'd run, I got bad shin splints.

At work, I have a long (long, long) hallway I walk several times a week and I…
