Originally posted by amd723 bet it's all your tourists and snowbirds. Originally posted by rrrunner I can't believe with all of our gun toting crazy people that Florida ranks so low in zombie survival! A friend posted this ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE article on FB and I found it quite amusing. I like how they use number of triathletes in the state as one of the metrics. And I like that being from Colorado and living in New Mexico I'm pretty safe. Looks like Erin is too. You Florida cats are in TROUBLE!  Some could argue that the Zombpocalypse has already begun. Uhhhuhuhuhh… must eat brains… uhuhuhuhhhh…. and giant fried turkey legs… uhuhuhuhhhhh…. (best approximation of zombie-speak)

Personally, I think their running gear is FAR superior to just about everything else. So, this is great news for triathlon.
And in case you guys don't know, Lauren Fleshman is married to the triathlete Jesse Thomas (and I've got to imagine theres got to be some tri influence coming from that alone.) Their line is really cute and looks comfortable. Like most fitness related clothing, it is priced to a point that I wait for it to go on sale/clearance. I see that one of our local running shops carries the line (and bunches of stores in Denver). I'll have to try some on. I really like to support small companies when I can. ETA: I am trying to get their blog through Feedly but can't get Feedly to "find" it. Ideas? Edited by rrrunner 2014-03-28 9:54 AM |

Master 9705 Raleigh, NC area | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2014--CLOSED (begging & bribes MAY work) Originally posted by StaceyK Originally posted by jmkizer i use RunKeeper. I can't find anywhere that you can set intervals to be say 4 minutes/1 minute but you can set it so that it tells you the time since you started in all different sorts of blocks from 1 minute intervals up. I have found that it works well for me because I know how much longer I have to suck it up for before I get to slow down. Mary, I think that you had asked about Android apps that do intervals? I didn't respond because I use a watch for that but I think that most of the popular ones do. I was reminded because I saw a blurb about Runtastic being updated today. I think that some people here might use Strava Run. I've also heard good things about Endomondo and RunKeeper. The app may have changed but here are some instructions: http://www.houseofrunning.com/log-your-runs-track-your-progress-with-runkeeper/ |

Master 9705 Raleigh, NC area | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2014--CLOSED (begging & bribes MAY work) Originally posted by laffinrock Originally posted by 4agoodlife Glad you're back on your feet again (ba doom kish) but sorry to hear about the missing porto. I'm only run/walking a little over a mile at a time right now, but will have to figure something out as I start running longer distances. The neighbors don't take kindly to dogs squatting on their lawns; can't imagine how they'd react to a person! Please excuse the feeble attempts at humor. I'm really tired and feeling a little punchy. Now's about the time DH starts saying, "Yes, dear," then suggesting that I maybe go to bed early. First little run in 10 days. Toe did okay. A bit sore, but no pain Most horrible thing happened! The trusted 3mi porto is gone!!! No no no bueno. Only did 3.6 and last mile was 75% walking. Be careful about that! Don't be like this SF runner! |

Master 9705 Raleigh, NC area | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2014--CLOSED (begging & bribes MAY work) Originally posted by StaceyK Some news on the DH health front. He had an appointment to review his first round of test results today. At this stage the diagnosis is that 30+ years of drinking over a litre of milk a day has resulted in his stomach not functioning properly. There are some other less serious issues as well but this is causing the majority of his problems. So a light at the end of the tunnel maybe, but it means more diet changes including adding no grains to our list of no wheat, no sugar, no dairy, no soy so I'm not too sure what we are going to eat now  It sounds like a tough diet to follow but totally worth it if it gets Phil well! |

Dunno what feedly is? I don't disagree and their prices aren't much/any higher than the big companies. I just can't bring myself to pay $70 for a shirt, or sports bra, or shorts. That being said, if a company that is more socially/environmentally responsible is higher priced I, too, am willing pay the premium. |

Master 3870 | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2014--CLOSED (begging & bribes MAY work) Short home loop worked out fine...for Mak too. Silly mom, hadn't thought of her being newly potty trained since we were last training with the stroller. 4.7mi at my usual slow run/walk pace. Pollen is out in full force (news is reporting counts are off the charts) so I'm going to need to take allergy meds for awhile. Anyone else having such issues right now? |
