Anyone aiming for a Trifecta in 2014?
I think I'm going to give it a shot! Now that there's going to be a Super in the Boston area, it's much more doable. I was already planning on the Beast, Amesbury Sprint, and the Fenway Time Trials. It's going to be a fun 2014 :)

GoRucks
Who has done 'em? I'm signed up for a Light and a Challenge. Holding off on signing up for the Heavy (despite peer pressure!!) until I've knocked these two out. Excited, but not really sure what I'm in for. From what I understand, it's a whole lot of suck, and then beer. :)

Has anyone seen a coupon code for Warrior Dash in PA?

Battlefrog PA in the Mines
I'm making BrettPGH go, and kwaz29 will be there too. I'm totally pimping out this race, because I love it even more than Spartan! (Just don't tell Joe ;) ) Code BFCastro will get you 50% off! Same code will work for all Battlefrog races, though they are staggered right now, and definitely not as much off as they will be.…

OCR World Championships!
Who qualified so far? Who is going? I'm so psyched to qualify based on age group finish times at two races, and I also qualify under the Journeyman division. But it's far and it's expensive. But I SO want to go now!

Suggestions for a weighted vest for women?
I've tried on a few, and I know they're supposed to be unisex, but I need a girl version. Not weight wise, but for fitting around my chest comfortably. Any recommendations?

Raining, very cold, and running
So Saturday is supposed to be very lousy out. And I gotta do 26.2 miles. I never run outside when it's crappy out, I stick to the dread mill, or get in a different workout. What do I wear? My feet are going to be wet and frozen. I'm thinking maybe a poncho over my regular cold weather running clothes? And bring a change of…

I forgot how fat I used to be, found an old photo
12 years ago: Current: So glad I made the decision to start running, join a gym, and lose weight! I was truly shocked when I saw that photo. I still look in the mirror and see a "fat girl" with self-esteem issues. But I'm hanging that old photo of me up, and it's going to be my motivation any time I don't feel like going…

Huge discrepancy with BodyBugg vs. Polar FT4
I've been using a BodyBugg for a little over a year to track calories burned. I wear it pretty much all day, but do not sleep in it (beyond the first week I had it to get the full BMR). I just bought a Polar FT4 to do some HR zone training, and today was the first time I've used it. For a one hour workout comprised of two…

What to wear for cold weather OCR?
I'm assuming there won't be mud. And with the exception of a lovely 62 on Monday, it's been pretty damn cold around here. I'm thinking ski clothes will be too bulky, but Under Armour cold gear not warm enough if I'm crawling around. I don't want to be weighed down too much if I'm running too. Anyone ever done a cold…

Woo Hoo, Boston Tough Mudder
I'm so excited. I was going to have to bail on the Tough Mudder, which was scheduled for May 11. About an hour after I signed up, my sister called me to say she was getting married that day, and ask me if I'd be in the wedding. Obviously, I'd skip TM to be at my sister's wedding. Tough Mudder FINALLY released details…
