Quick question of curiosity, Christmas is coming and my wife will be asking me what I want. What are your favorite books about running? I'm not looking for technique or gear, but true stories about great journeys or adventure would be great. I've read Running with Raven, that's about it.
Congrats! How do you track your miles so precisely? I'm not big on wearable technology, I don't even own a watch. If it's a fitbit what kind do you have?
Cheers,
Dave
The bulging disc in my back kept me out for 2 weeks, but I was able to put in a 2k, 3k, and 4k run this week to test it out. My back passed with flying colours. Off to Florida next week where I hope to get a few 5k morning beach runs in.
The bad disc pushes my couch to 10K phase back a few...
Our local grocery store has installed several self checkout registers. The next time a bored cashier comes over and insists on ringing my order in for me I'm going to go ballistic. I am the self serve because I don't want to talk to anyone.
The Couch to 10K app I have starts off assuming you have completed the 5K program (need to check a box confirming you've already done the 5K). The first 10K workout is 53 minutes, but it goes back to the run/walk routine using 10 minute runs and 1 minute walks.
The next time I'm over for holidays I'd like to do one. Right now my plan is to maintain 5K for another 4-6 weeks and then move on to the Couch to 10K program.
I'm 51, 14st and 5' 11" finished the Couch to 5K a few weeks ago. It's a great program, really easy to follow, no pressure to run a specific distance on any run.
Nate ****ing Petermen. Buffalo better cut his dumb ass on Monday. The Bills were never going to be a contender this year, still doesn't excuse an inept player like Nate. Special teams win for Houston, special teams loss for Buffalo.
Hopefully KC thrashes the Pats tonight so I can have some...
Question. Last Saturday I was blessed by this thing called a bulging disc in my back (lifting boxes). Could barely move for 3 days. It's all starting to feel a bit better today. Anyone had one before? How long did you wait before starting some gentle jogging?
The Toronto thing is dead and buried. Rogers was a big piece of that in Toronto and he passed away, I think before the first game was played in Toronto. Ralph Wilson was the other big piece and he's passed away too.
The Pegulas are ready to start talking about a new stadium in the Buffalo...
My money's on the Eagles, I haven't watched the Giants yet this year, but the game reports make it sound like the teams a mess.
Some of the Bills fans wanted Kap signed in the off-season when it looked like we were going to draft a QB. Ultimately he's too polarizing, it would have been chaos...
I attempted to create an account and be able to buy tickets before my September holiday from Canada. The club never sent me a confirmation that an account of any type was created and I was never able to access tickets of any kind.
** Did try to sign in again today and was able to sign in. In...
There was an incident several years ago at a hockey game. If memory serves me correctly it was a child killed by a puck that went into the stands. I think the argument was that you expect a puck to enter the stands at a hockey game and that negligence would be if a stick went into the stands...
