Second, Kirsten, that is EXTRA funny because my SIL wrote that in my college grad card not to be clever, but because she is a poor speller. We joke about it all the time. Actually, I think she wrote "congraduation" but close enough. Edited by Asalzwed 2013-05-23 5:44 PM |

Veteran 2441 Western Australia | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Originally posted by amd723 Originally posted by TriAya Agree, a bad mattress can lead to all sorts of aches and pains. Originally posted by Artemis Hiya Manatees! I'm back from my conference in Philly! I had a great time and I did a ton of walking. I logged all those miles. I'm trying to catch up on everything I missed. I hear there is some kind of challenge going on? Oh! I'm feeling a lot better. Some allergies, but that's because I'm around the cats again after a few days. My hips were fine the whole time I was gone even with all the walking. After one day home, it hurts. I think it's my mattress. Is that at all possible? Abberlutely. Supportive mattress, pillow that holds head in neutral position, and if on your side, pillow between the legs and possibly a boyfriend pillow between the arms. I have no idea what that's called in the States. None of that's going to hurt (mattresses can be expensive unless they're futons), and if you're having problems, definitely worth a try. I agree but rather then spending money on a new one and getting one that still makes no difference call the place that you stayed at your conference and ask them what sort of mattresses they have then your all set to know which one works for you. But be prepared to spend some $$$$. Edited by StaceyK 2013-05-23 6:39 PM |

Elite 4435 | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Originally posted by Richardsdrr VENT.............so angry, and disgusted, with the terrorist attack in London yesterday. What the f... Are these people on? Hacking off the head of a British soldier in broad daylight in the middle of S.London. Like, WTF? I feel sorry for the guys family having to see that attack broadcast all over the news. Makes me think back to when I used to be on guard outside St Jame's Palace and how often people used to come up to you and hit you. I thought, one of these days I will drive this bayonet through your skull you pathetic individual, now go away...........rant over. I know mate it's truly awful. Now it's gonna get all racially tense again in the UK - what with an economic crisis and now this, people are gonna be pretty angry (kind of like the Maggie T years all over again!) Mofos. That is all. |

Elite 4435 | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Originally posted by melbo55 Chris - answering your 'how to create a Strava segment' question: First, open the ride or run you want to add a segment for. Do this by bringing up your Dashboard, then scroll down your list of activities and click on the one you want. Once the page for the activity is open, scroll down below the elevation profile of the ride and click the blue 'Create a segment' button (bottom right of elevation pic). From there, follow the on screen directions. It may take a little playing around with the slider to get the start/stop part you want. It's pretty handy that it shows both an overhead map and the elevation profile, probably to help folks make segments from hills. It can be fun to see how you measure up to yourself on certain rides, and yeah, just ignore all the super speedsters If you have any other questions I will try to answer them. Not a Strava pro by any means, but I can get around in there OK. You are welcome to 'friend' or 'follow' (or whatever it's called in there) me if you like, look for Melanie Payton. I don't have a pic because I'm a dork. Guess I should work on that. The pic, not being a dork. I don't think there is a cure for dorkiness. I'm on Strava too - for running mainly, I think I am Jo Baxas or maybe Joanne... |

| Master 10208 Northern IL | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Originally posted by amd723 Originally posted by melbo55 Well, that's odd! Originally posted by amd723 Originally posted by brigby1 When I switch from the bike to run, I stop the bike timer and change over to run in the 310 menu and then hit start. Originally posted by amd723 Another Strava question. The last couple of weeks I've done a ride- run brick. When I upload to Strava it combines the 2 into one bike event. That, obviously, really affects the avg pace. Anyone know how to stop that from happening? Neither garmin or BT have any problem recognizing the two separate activities, but Strava does. I emailed Strava, but haven't heard back yet. How are you recording in the first place? I see this happen when some people run their races. It'll show up as one long s/b/r because they record it as such in a 310 or 910. Not sure how to fix it after. I have completely separate devices for each part, so it's not an issue for me. Hmm. I have a 305 and for my race last weekend it was first in bike mode, then I switched it to run mode and Strava 'saw' it as two separate activities. Indeed. Melanie, was there a setting somewhere for that? I might be able to check later, but have never done this. Only half paid attention to these things when going through way back as it wasn't really a concern. If there isn't, I'd suspect the 305 saves it differently. The ones I've seen were newer devices, no 305's. |

Expert 1452 Troy, MI | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Jogo done for only 30 minutes though. My trainer dumped me as a client in the middle of our session. I guess I am not living up to his expectations. I was shocked and sad. I really liked him.  We only had 4 sessions left and I was not going to continue because way too much $$$ but still I am pre-paid. I left in tears. I will ask the gym questions tomorrow. I guess the birthday gift I got him on Monday was not good enough. Seriously, I really thought he and I worked well together. Very sad and confused. After 21 sessions we were not a good fit? Really, he didn't wait till the end of the session and dumped me half way through. I sat in the parking lot crying. I was begging for answers. I am shocked. Edited by jogo 2013-05-23 9:17 PM |

You signed one when you went in for personal training--the gym has to either get a different trainer to finish your contract sessions or make him do it--or reimburse you. I would be LIVID. Hope you get some answers tomorrow. |

Elite 4435 | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) I AM BLOOMIN' EXCITED. So as you know (if you don't what rock are you living under!?) I'm a member of the MaccaX triathlon thingo. He has just recruited a swim coach for the group - Brenton Ford. Firstly was excited coz he's HAWT. Secondly found out he lives in my suburb! And now he has offered to coach me and another chick...June 15. His price usually is $249 per session per person. He is going to charge us $80 each - 1.30mins. Underwater video and analysis. Have I mentioned he's hot? He has a website Effortless Swimming. He specialises in triathlon and OWS. Of course I won't be deserting Johnny (he's $6...)

I have seen his "Effortless Swimming" clips on FB and have learned a lot from him. That is one heck of a deal (and a super HAWT Piglet too!) |
