Distance runners
Hi fellow runners! I'm a long time distance runner (61 marathons/ultras), but have taken a couple years off from running. I went through a "burn out" period, where running was no longer fun for me. Well, I'm finally back to enjoying it. I've committed to a half-marathon on December 1st in Seattle. I'm creating this thread…

Insanity grads moving onto Asylum?
Hi all! I completed Insanity Mid-March, rotated in some P90X with running to prepare for the Boston marathon, and am now feeling recovered enough to start with Asylum. Does anyone else have this program? I haven't set an exact start date, but it would be cool if someone started with me. Send me a buddy request :)

Easter meals?
Hi all! Have you planned on modifying any dishes to cut out extra calories? Instead of green bean casserole, I'm doing steamed green beans tossed in olive oil and slivered almonds. I'm also using yams to mash up instead of white potatoes. Also, there will be a giant garden salad on the side.

P90X started April 12th
Hello all, I started round 2 of P90X on the 12th. I decided to follow the classic schedule. There are a few things I am doing differently with this round. I teach Turbo Kick two days a week and run 4-5 days a week. Since I have this added cardio, I will probably skip KenpoX most weeks. I am also experimenting with the…

pre-run meal for long distance runners?
Hello all! I have been an endurance runner for ~6 years and my pre-run/race breakfasts have varied. When I first started, I would have an english muffin with pb & banana. I then proceeded to a Baker's breakfast cookie with a Tbsp of pb on top. The last few years, I've had two Nature's Path toaster pastries. I've always had…
