OK Runners how screwed am I?
I have a half marathon race in 19 days. It's been so hot and humid here that I haven't been able to keep up with my training. I've run the distance before. Raced it in May. Most of my runs in the past two months have been in the 10k range. I did a 15k last week and other than some tummy issues (chronic, nothing new) I felt…

P90X and running
Has anybody been able to complete the P90X program and maintain a maintenance running training program as well? My P90X is here! My P90X is here! So, I'm really excited to start that. I'm also slated to run 3 more half marathons in the fall. So training for those and probably the last third of P90X are going to coincide. I…

Rate of Perceived Exertion for weight lifting
I've just started weight lifting and I'm trying to calculate calorie burn by RPE. I'm just trying to get a gauge to go by. I've got cardio figured out, now I have to figure out weights. For cardio light is being able to carry on a conversion. Moderate is can't speak much more than a couple words at a time. Vigorous is not…

Muscle gain question
Just a really quick question. And as I write it, I'm thinking it's a stupid question. "You can't gain muscle in a calorie deficit" What exactly does this mean? Does this mean your calorie NET can't be in a deficit, or that your food calories can't be below your BMR or TDEE? Or something else?

Christmas Day Long Run
Just curious what everyone is doing if their long run falls on Christmas Day. I'm supposed to do 13KM on Christmas day. I'll probably run it anyway. I will have a couple of hours to kill while turkey is cooking and nothing will be going on. My other option will be to run it on Saturday instead. That might be a better plan…

Running Question: Looking for a website
I'm just wondering if anyone knows of a website that will take a plotted course on a map and turn it into some sort of treadmill incline list. My thought is that I might not be able to train on the half marathon course that I'm running in October beforehand. I thought if I could sort of simulate it on a treadmill, it might…
