HELP! I need to cut down my minute-miles!
Does anyone have any tips for cutting down running time? My average minute mile is *REALLY* slow (about an 11.25m/m) regardless of the distance (3 miles or 11 miles--11 being the longest run I've done) In races I average about a 10.40m/m. I know I'll never be a fast runner, I would just like a consistent 10 or 9.45. Any…

to eat or not to eat? exercise cals

the ad on the right side of the screen
Does the ad with the banana going bad on it, the one on the right side of the screen bother you? It talks about stomach fat and foods not to eat. I clicked on it and it looks sketch. It shows a banana turning black, are they trying to convince us that we shouldn't eat bananas. I'm confused, haha.

treadmill...use that incline!
I've read from numerous sources (SHAPE mag being one of them) that one should never use a treadmill on a 0 incline, because its actually downhill. and that it should be 0.5-1.0 to mimic an outdoor flat surface like a sidewalk/street. I also read that it could help with shin splints. I've started to jog at 1.0 but its sooo…
