    America Revealed - Food Machine

    I think most of us are pretty mindful in the food and nutrition department and many are also ecologically aware of how we impact our environment. Has anyone seen PBS' America Revealed - Food Machine? It is a kinder gentler version of Michael Pollan's The Omnivore's Dilemma. While I am...

    Sunglasses Input Requested

    I could use a little sunglasses help. With small ears, a flat face and almost no bridge to my nose, sunglasses very quickly slide down to my nostrils. Does anyone have any advice here, particularly as we move into the sweaty season? Oh yeah, I don't want to pay tons of $$ for them because that...

    Foam Rollers & Trigger Point Therapy

    Hello all, I wanted to see if anyone has input or thoughts to share regarding the cruel and tortuous foam roller and trigger point therapy. I've been sidelined by PF since the beginning of 2011. After watching the Chicago Marathon (which I was registered for . . .), I've re-dedicated my very...

    shoes & music, thoughts on BF running & the BRS

    If you are from New England or know someone from the NE, you've likely heard the term "swamp yankee". This is someone who is cheap. There are lots of other kinder terms, but bottom line, I'm a swamp yankee and I'm cheap. I make lots of things other people pay for and barefoot running truly...

    Public Radio & BF running

    Does anyone listen to the public radio program "To The Best of Our Knowledge"? http://ttbook.org/book/running They had a great well rounded piece on running this week, specifically stretching, barefoot running, Christopher McDougall & Jason Robillard. Slant: barefoot runners aren't crazies. . .

    Runners World Page

    So is this new information or am I just on RW's recycled email list? http://www.runnersworld.com/topic/0,7122,s6-238-573-0-0,00.html There seems to be lots of good information here, it's a (minor) shame that the minimalist shoe review is at the top of the page - there are many more informative...

    POSE Running anyone??

    I know I floated a POSE question out here a while back but the issue rises again. My local running club had our monthly meeting last night and the guest speaker was the only POSE coach in NM. He was a nice fellow and wore VFF. After a brief outline of POSE and why it works, I asked him a...

    When can I run everyday??

    I've followed Jason's five step plan and am up to 3.5 miles every other day. Now I'm afraid to take of the training wheels and go to a typical training schedule, which has a few back to back running days. Any input on this? I don't have any real aches or pains, maybe a little twinge in my...

    Chi Running?

    I am the world's most unorganized person. While sorting through some newspaper clippings, I came across a notice for a Chi Running clinic by Danny Dreyer, for September of 2010. It only took me 3 months to find this scrap of paper! He'll have another clinic in April of this year. Can any of...

    vibrAMS funny cartoon

    Can anyone send me the link to the funny vibrAMS cartoon? It has a man and a women in an office setting and she keeps asking him about his shoes and telling him he's an idiot. I almost cried it was so funny, but I didn't bookmark it. Thanks - Sara

    What do you wear when not running?

    So, I'm curious. What do you wear on your feet when you aren't running? Since I started this in March, wearing shoes has become, well, unsatisfying, to say the least. I have some really great cowboy boots but feel like I'm experimenting with a medieval torture device - forget about strappy...
