MFP Runners 4/23/09... did you run today?
Hi y'all! It's almost Friday! I ran a little over 8 miles this morning. My 7 month old decided to get up for the day at 4:30 this morning and skipped his morning nap, so by the time we made it to the gym, I was in dire need of a good run. It was awesome!

Runners... anyone ever heard of Hood to Coast???
So every year for the past 8 years (minus last year b/c I was huge pregnant) I've run a relay race called the Hood to Coast. It's 197 miles from the top of Mt. Hood to Seaside, Oregon. It's a 24 hour relay race with 12 people per team. There are 2 vans of 6 runners. Each van goes through their runners and then pass the…

Hi y'all! I guess I'm the first to post. I had every intention of going a nice long distance, but couldn't get into it, so I only ran 4 miles and then I did the stair climber for 20 more minutes and lifted. Ugh... it was a MONDAY indeed. Hoping everyone else had better workouts than me!

1/14/08 Runners???
Hi everyone! I didn't see a post for today, so I guess I'm the first to log in. Today I did 6.25 miles at a good little clip and then lifted after. A friend of mine just signed up for a 50 MILE race at the end of February. Isn't that unbelievable??? I have done 4 marathons and lots of 1/2 marathons, but 50 miles is crazy!…

MFP RUnners 11/21
Hi everyone! I can't believe I'm starting this thread today... Baby Mack is ALMOST over his sniffles. I think I'm paranoid being a first time mom, so I didn't take him to the gym daycare today. We're getting on a plane to Seattle tomorrow morning, so I'm just anxious and don't want to risk anything. I was stoked that he…

I'm BACK... 6 weeks post baby's birth
Hi everyone! I've been a member here for about a year now, but have been M.I.A. on the postings for awhile because I was pregnant with my first baby. Mack was born on September 3rd and is now 6 weeks old! He's beautiful and perfect. I had a c-section, so I had to wait the 6 weeks until I could exercise again, but I'm…

Bragging Time!
Hi everyone. I was reading Songbyrdsweet's post the other day encouraging everyone to share their workout and calories burned for the day. I LOVED that post! Everyone was so excited about it and proud of themselves. I haven't posted anything in a long time, but I'm still here. I'm still logging all of my food and exercise…

FROZEN mixed nuts
I don't know about you guys, but I love to munch. I would much rather have a bowl of popcorn that lasts me for an hour than eat a real meal. I have a million "tricks". I was watching the cooking show the other day and Rachael Ray was on. She was going to add almonds to something and she reached into the freezer for them.…

Easy trick to fill up AND get your veggies!
Hi everyone. I haven't been posting lately, but I'm still here. I just wanted to share a trick that I use almost every day to get lots of veggies, feel full and satisfied and keep the calories low! I buy a can of the reduced sodium progresso soup, usually the chicken and barley. There are 110 calories per serving, 2…

WOW... news from me to you!
Hi everyone! I've been gone from this site for about 6 days. I just found out I'm PREGNANT! I am so excited... it's only about 5 weeks, so it's really early and I haven't told anyone yet (except my husband, of course) and don't really feel comfortable talking about it yet because of all the scares so early. But I had to…

Anyone up for a fitness challenge?
Hi everyone! I was thinking it would be fun to pick an event as a goal to complete as a team. For example, there are lots of 1/2 marathons, 10k's, 5k's, bike rides, sprint triathlons, etc. in the spring time. I was thinking we could all set a personal goal to do a race of some sort around the same time in our own areas. It…

Drunken berries
Good morning everyone! I wanted to share a recipe I used last night and it was a hit! I know there is some concern regarding artificial sweetners, so if you'd rather use regular sugar, it will still be a light yummy treat. Mixed berries (frozen or fresh)... make sure to get blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, etc. Put…

Not doing so well the past few days...
Hi everyone. I went out of town on Sunday and got back last night. I had every intention of watching what I ate and staying healthy while I was gone, but I failed miserably and now I feel almost like I'm right back to where I was when I started this journey. I am so mad at myself. I started out today pretty good by going…

HELP... I need sweet and salty... any ideas?
Hi everyone! I'm PMS-ing BIG TIME right now and I'm hoping you all can help me. I'm so lucky I don't have any junk food in the house right now, because if I did it would be in my tummy! I need some ideas for snacks. I like the 94% fat free popcorns out there, and I like the sugar free puddings. Does anyone have something…

Motivating Book...
Hi everyone! I was going through a box of old stuff yesterday and came across one of my favorite books. It's called The Power of Appreciation. Has anyone heard of it? Julieofthewolves, I thought you would especially like it because of your scientific background. The concepts are about energy and the different vibrations…
