SO........if I run four miles (or 16 laps) in the inside lane it is just four miles but if I run 16 laps in the outside lane it is four and a quarter miles.

 

I guess I did knid of ask for the math thing. ;)

WE were so glad that Ed didn't win because they had already gotten the $100, 000 and the RV earlier in the season. IT' gotta suck to him though being a chef and not getting to eat all those goodies. I feel fo him.

Sometimes my 8 yr. old son will ride his bike alongside while I jog and one of the first times he was paying attention to me instead of where he was going and hit a parked car! No damage to wither child or car, but the owner of the car just happened to be looking out her second story window when it happened. I think she was afraid I was going to sue her or something. Suffice it to say she was WAY more concerned about my kid than her car (good neighbor).

Fitness New to Running - any advise? Aug 05 2008

First of all, get a good pair of shoes. If you can afford it go get some asics or something at foot loker they are around 100 bucks. If you can't afford that. Wal-mart has Starter brand ones for about 25, and they are decent. I only found them in the men's section though. I usually wear a size 9 1/2 so I got a 7 1/2 mens.

Second, keep going. When I started running again two years ago, I could only a half a mile without stopping adn that was very slow pace too. Now I do triathlon. Just make yourself go little bit farther each time you work out. Even if it's only ten steps, until you get to the distance you desire. Then you can start to change it up with interval training ot whatever. GOod luck, Don't give up! You can do it!!!!!!!!!!

THanks. I have been training, about 2 hours a day. I was just curious what the buzz was all about.

Weight Loss The Alli and Grapefruit Diet! It works! Mar 11 2008

YOu guys! OK The diaper thing is very hilarious, I admit. However, Alli is not such an evil product. It does actually work and if you stick to the plan you don't have the side effects except initially (like for three days). For someone like me who runs 20 miles a week most weeks and still can't lose weight unless I stay below 1500 calories a day, it helps. Plus. I figure when I reach my goal weight, I just stop taking it and keep eating the same for maintenance. Just another perspective.

I pound the apvement a lot in my asics gels and I hardly even have calluses. They are about 80 bucks, so a little pricey, but not too outrageous.

I am pretty sure that one lap on the inside lane is 400 meters, that is why they stagger start races.

The track is an oval (around a football field).............so maybe you know how to measure the diameter of an oval? I don't, got a D in college algebra. Thanks anyway

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm coffee. I love my coffe3, cream no sugar. I find that using 1% milk just doesn't cut it and to get it the right 'color' takes about 1/4 c. which also makes it cold eewwww. Now, Fat free half and half has corn syrup in it (aka sugar), but only 10 cal. per Tablespoon so for me the trade off is worth it. ALso, if your coffee is the only thing you are putting artificial sweetener in (and you dont drink 4 pots a day or anything) you are probably safe health wise.

THanks for the advice. I told my hubby maybe we could fast something besides food, like TV! However, I am not going to worry about it too much. I'll know that I am not fasting JUST to lose weight.

BTW fellow Christians. DO any of you ever fast? We have a churchwide one coming up at the first of the year (a Daniel fast) and I find myself conflicted becuz of all the admonishments Jesus gives about fasting for the wrong reasons. O don't want to be perceived as fasting to God, but really in my heart I am doing it to lose weight or am more enamoured with the weight loss than the spiritual benefits. What do ya'll think?

 It's ironic, but everytime I've asked God to help me with weight loss, I either get the flu or the worship services in our church get really long (I am pentecostal and on the worship team) ;) But I have another verse for you It's Hebrews 12:1 "Run with patience the race that is set before us." Hang in there!
