    Fantasy Football 2013

    Want in? Go to http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/546304 or email me. Basically a few years back this league started. It has always been for money but seems to have the possibility of going away this year for different reasons. This year there is no money involved, just fun. I would like...

    Chia and Honey Gu Mix

    So I really like Honey Stingers running "gel" and have benefited from chia seeds before. Has anyone tried mixing these and using as a "gu" or gel of sorts? I was thinking I could refrigerate some gu and water over nights, then mush up, and mix honey in, then put in a small container on my...

    Torn Paroneus Longus Getting Better

    I went to the doc for my check-up today. Two months of not running and 5 weeks in a boot and it appears to be healing surprisingly well. So well that next Monday I start physical therapy and began to get some time out of the boot. I will get more through the month and in 4 weeks should be out of...

    Vegetarian for Lent... crashing and burning

    So my wife and I gave up meat for Lent. We are Methodists, so we did not HAVE to, but chose to. We have been Methodist for 4 years and have given up things we consider to be "vices" or things we want to do less of or give up... hopefully form a habbit. You can also do things... so far I've...

    Supplements?

    So, what type of supplements does everyone take? I drink Muscle Milk shakes with Amazing Greens Superfood when I do anaerobic work. But I really am not into the supplement thing until I read some positive reviews on Nitric Oxide supplements for tendon healing. So I got some called NO3 Chrome. It...

    Long Walks with torn Paroneal Tendon with Boot on?

    I am trying to stay in, or get in shape while my torn paroneal tendon gets better. Currently I am riding the stationary bike as much as possible and doing the non-jumping Insanity workouts (like yoga with planks and slow squats) while wearing the boot. My doc told me I could ride the bike but to...

    Probiotics

    So I'm doing some things to be more healthy. I've cut down on drinking a bit, I'm quitting meat for a while, and I decided to try these little Yakult probiotic drinks. I've been taking them a few days and my stomach does seem a tad better but it could be the placebo effect. So, what say you all...

    Rocky Raccoon 2014 - 100 Miles or Bust

    Okay. This got a lot of attention when we ran RR50 in 2012. Yesterday was RR2013 and not one of the trio who ran RR50 in 2012 made it. We have all talked about it, so I want to start the thread. We have a year. Who is in? RR 100, 2014.

    Another parent giving bad running advice... butt in?

    I posted this on the Austin Barefoot FB and got a couple responses... what do y'all think? So here is a question I have been thinking about: last night I was at my son's karate class. They are all 4-6 and were doing laps barefoot around the room. One of the new girls, who is closer to 6 I...

    Hell's Hills... Nueces?

    anyone else going to these? I think I will be okay for the 50M by HH but no idea what distance at Nueces just yet. 50k would be great, but if I can make 25 I will do that. It just looks too beautiful to pass up. Bubba Hotep will be at HH but not getting any biters on Nueces. Tejastrails.com...

    Never Healing Ankle

    Back in June, I had a very bad race and basically rolled onto my ankle and slid on it down the side of a rocky hill for around 10 feet. I tried to just lower my miles and then ran a 50K on it, but it definitely slowed me down there. I took about 6 weeks off and did Insanity during that time...

    Hells Hills

    Hoping I am not so banged up any more, looks like Bubba Hotep and I are pretty definite for Hells Hills 50 miler in April (TejasTrails.com) and I may hit Nueces. Anyone else? I think I just about have Chaser convinced to do a shorter distance at HH.

    New Balance M730

    If you are looking for a shoe that has some cushion (barely) but lets you run naturally, this is a surprising option, but they won't be around long as they are discontinued. Here are my initial thoughts. http://doomedrunner.blogspot.com/2012/10/new-shoes-new-balance-m730s-is-this.html...

    Chase?

    Besides Rob's odd text absence and Jim's text absence... Chase seems to have vanished... though I see his wife posting their cute kids on facebook often... but I have not been checking this enough. Anyone heard from Chaser lately?
