I have gone from hating running to running 3-5 times a week. I started with a running program called Couch to 5K you can find it on pod runner, Robert ullery and cool running. There is a c25k thread on here. I download the running programs on my I pod and go.

Try Cliff bars they rock if it sayd hydo or high fructose I dont eat it. Stick with the Cliff bars they are delicious.

Awesome Job Cardio must be the USA VS Uk running challenge.

to all the Vikings Fans lets raise our glasses of protein shakes to the retirment of #4



This Allen trade has me thinking Hershal Walker but not as devistating.



I am glad Allen went to the Vikings Now My Broncos wont have to worry.

Me personnalu I have lost a little bit of weight and the biggest change i made was increasing my brekfast calories. It was put to me this way. I am starting a long trip do you want your car to be full of gas or 1/2 full knmowing your going to have to add fuel to make it to your detination. The thought is to start the day eat your 200 cals. + then 2 -3 hours later another 150 - 200 cals. basically your total calories and divide by 6 to eat 6 seperate meals.

God Bles you Rachel awesome job.

Good source of information.

Race Day Breakfast



Pre-race breakfasts can be one of the biggest questions for people. The answer of what to eat lies in what you would normally consume before heading out for a very long day of training. If you would eat more than a couple of bananas, then on race morning you will also need more than a few bananas. Do what you would normally do. The thing that can be different than on a training day is that you might prefer to get your calories from liquids rather than solids. There are many meal replacement drinks that work perfect

for this. They enable you do drink 500-700 calories on race morning very easily. Eating the equivalent amount of calories from bagels and bananas can be extremely difficult and impractical.



After your breakfast, prepare for the amount of time that will lapse between then and the race start. It can be 2-3 hours or more from the time one eats until the gun goes off, especially if the race has wave starts and you are slotted for one of the later ones. Always take a bottle with you that has a sports or meal replacement drink in it along with an energy bar in case you have that feeling like you just need a little something solid in the

stomach. Also take a water bottle with you so that you can drink if you feel the need. This way you will start the race completely fueled up and hydrated.



I hope these tips help with some good ideas to help you get ready in the final days before your races.
