I must say that the themed runs through Piitsburgh sound substantially more fun and interesting than my treadmill runs. It sounds like training is going great and you are going to be well prepared...

I hope all of the injuries are on the mend and training is going smoothly or back on track.

JMTstone, I hope you are continuing to progress after your hospitalization. I am so impressed that you...

Thank you all for the thoughts! I will look for the insert. I remember the 7 minutes from the half last year but was thinking, like Melanie, that with smaller corrals and so many more, they might...

Does anyone know how many minutes there will be between each corral in the half and full marathon? I couldn't find it in the runner info.

With all of the races just around the corner, I wanted to wish everyone good luck. Whether it is your first race, your first race at a certain distance, or another race to add to a growing list, I...

I tried to wear mine again today and again had no luck. Clearly, I am the one with the problematic head :) I guess I will have to continue my search for something to hold back my hair.

That is really cute! I must admit though that I haven't had any luck with the bondibonds. They fall right off my head after just a few minutes. Do you have a secret for getting it to stay?

Thank you! I am glad your husband has someone working with him to figure out a nutrition plan that is best for him. I must admit that this is a struggle for me as well, and I am still trying to...

Good luck to everyone running the Wine and Dine half this weekend!

This past weekend I ran a local 10-miler and experienced a range of emotions. Instead of really enjoying the race, I kept...

Congratulations!

Good luck! Hopefully the Pirate fans will be out early to cheer. Will you get to see the duck?




Hang in there. I agree that training has its ups and downs, and, sometimes, it is hard to not...

Wow! It seems far away until I hear 14 weeks. My training is going all right, but I do find the long runs to be rather boring. A week or so ago I had to do a 15 mile run indoors around 1/8 mile...

Congratulations! I hope you received my PM about the Pittsburgh race.

I know there are some Pittsburgh folks on this board, so I thought I would mention a new race. I recently signed up for the EQT 10 miler. It is in November and looks like it should be a nice run...

Thank you! I actually think I would prefer to structure my training similarly to your training. The long weekend runs often feel like big jumps. However with three small children at home, I needed a...

It is so motivating to read each race or training story. Congratulations! In fact, I was thinking about the posts on this thread while I was out for my run this morning. Thank you for helping me...

It is great to see some fellow western Pennsylvanians. I am a big fan of the Montour trail. It has some different running surfaces and a lot of options for entering and exiting.

It is wonderful to read about all of the training and race accomplishments. It is interesting to read the posts about stretching philosophies. I have never been one to incorporate a lot of...

Carrie, I am so glad you had a run where you felt good. I ran five miles yesterday and had mixed emotions. My first thought was that I was somewhat pleased with my pace. My second thought was I can't...

Maryanne, I am impressed you were able to do any running or walking with an unleashed dog in such close proximity. The minute I see a dog who isn't leashed or within an invisible fence I go into...

It sounds like the training is coming along. I must admit that I was considering skipping my run this evening, but after reading the most recent posts, I am going to make the effort! Now I just have...

I also appreciate this thread. I ran the half in January and was keeping up the training. However, I then had something akin to the flu and am having trouble getting back into training. Reading about...
