(which really means Fewer Word Wednesday…this time with more giveaway) Zensah offered me the opportunity to try their compression running skirt/sports bra. Note the smile. I like’y being compressed. The obligatory butt rear view of the Zensah skirt (and my need for a haircut). I liked running in the skirt, but I think Id LOVE [...]

Target heart rate training (guest post)

Thursday, July 29, 2010

What is my target and maximum heart rate, and why should I care? When I go to the gym, the cardio machines always have this nifty little chart that shows what your “fat-burning” and “cardio” heart rate zones are. When I first started out on my weight loss journey, I ignored this chart. However, as [...]

The use of foam rollers in running (guest post).

Tuesday, July 20, 2010

35 Comments

Many thanks to Heather for responding to my pleas for a post on foam rollers.

Sure, you can choose to deem this a re-run. I prefer to view it as foreshadowing for tomorrow’s post. Tomato. Tomaaaaato. We’ve previously established there are innumerable things I’ll attempt in the name of coming up with a freakin blog post journalism. I’ve NIA’d I’ve awkwardly swung a kettlebell. Ive competed in bodybuilding. This time, [...]

Running: getting started.

Ive been a longtime lurker on Heather’s blog. For some reason I never felt right commenting because I wasnt a runner. I dont know what defined a runner in my mind—but I wasnt it & wasnt sure I had anything to add to the commentversation (tip: dont be me). Thankfully Heather didnt hold that against [...]
