Ang
Been here on off for the past seven years under different accounts Started running in 2008, lost 50 lbs since 2012 I ran 1692 miles for the fun of it! 2013 ran my first half marathon and ended with 1728 miles 2014 I have 2 halfs to complete so we shall see :) Doesn't matter if it's icy, snow blizzards or in temps of -30*C just do it and stop making excuses.
Weak glute, ham, no feeling in leg at all?
I am a person who ran 1728 miles last year and as of the past 2 months can't walk five feet. They (doctors) of course blamed running so I stopped and the numbness didn't dissipate nor did the pain radiating from the right side of butt all the way down the leg that have no resulted in no feeling at all in my feet.
Then next was given an MRI...spine is clean as a whistle. Now been to a neuro specialist and he is convinced that I have a ''growth'' somewhere in my pelvic/hip area. Any idea what it could be? Anyone gone through something similar? I have a cat scan Tues and he is rushing me through as best he can just curious.
1 AnswerOther - General Health Care7 years ago3 curved discs in the spine anyone had that before --Running and not not but want to be?
So I have been running through the pain for quite sometime and apparently it is my time to stop. Has anyone had 3 curved discs and still can run? I have inflammation all down the back and core butt and riddled with sciatia. I don't like the chiropractor I go to, he tells me not to run and doesn't understand the way I can focus out of pain just to run.
What time of length should I be expecting if I were to listen and rehabilitate
1 AnswerRunning7 years agoDescribe Lactic Acid Build Up on the legs?
I have been warned I run too much, I don't take the time I should I know. OR I should do something else so my muscles don't get so tight but all I do is run and as much as this is killing me I have taken 5 days off. Not running. Do the legs feel tight and numb feeling, would that be what lactic acid feels like. My back before my half marathon in was hurting no particular reason (Oct) and I have since had an MRI which showed nothing, yet the back is tight, feels and pain can shoot down the legs.
Stretching before or not, if I do both doesn't matter but when I run and go past 5 miles my legs feel so much better. Until then it's pins and needles. My back is going to hurt regardless
5 days is enough, I'm taping my back with magnetic tape and going out today I need it but
Should I get a roller, do a massage or what? I want to hear from the good runners on this forum that I know are on here that do serious distance like I do.
I need to run.
2 AnswersRunning7 years ago2 Half Marathons possible to do well in both?
First off let me start by saying I'm not a pro nor do I pretend to be. I run for fun and last year being my 5th year I thought I would try a half marathon in October 2013. Was all geared up for it, except 3 months prior, life changed dramatically and I ended up not training as well as I hoped. Best I ran was 10 miles the one month prior to race day. I had been hoping for 1:45 finish with crowds of 20 000 was hard to not actually stop and have to walk especially bc they had the roads corralled to 2 people in a row max at times. So I fnished in 2:02. Very disappointed but LOVED the atmosphere and for this reason, I have signed up for a June 1 and October 20th one.
It's possible I know that. Just wondering if I should be looking at doing it in 2 hrs or less or is it realistic. I ask this bc I was extremely disappointed that I didn't recover as well as I hoped. As soon as that run was done, I had to sit 5 hours in a car to go home, totally cramped and it took me 2 weeks to even barely run a 5 miler in decent if at all manner. So I am a little worried if that's too short of a time constraint on recovery.
Thoughts?
3 AnswersRunning7 years agoCan a company hire you on the spot and retract the offer a week later?
I'm sure they can.
I would like to know if a company cuts the interview short to offer you the job, gives you the orientation package along with police check and says see you next week. Can they upon calling your references retract the offer?
Canadian Laws could be different I'm sure to the USA so I'm looking to hear more from YA Canucks or those who at least know the ethics and laws better than I!
Thanks...it hasn't happened but I'm just curious.

2 AnswersRunning8 years agoHow many miles per month do you log to run a marathon?
I've never run a marathon in my life, I've run half marathons but not as competitive just as a leisurely pace for fun and health however I'm thinking this year may be the year to do so. How many miles do you need to run to run a marathon so I can do well. As a guideline this month so far I've logged 135 miles so what do I need to do.
3 AnswersRunning8 years agoNow just how often do you wash your running clothes?
I've heard very many theories on laundrying your running clothes. Anywhere from people washing their thermal dri-fit clothes once a week based on running every day, I've heard the two days wearing and then wash and then I've heard people say to wash it every time you use it as you won't harm it.
So what's your thoughts>?
5 AnswersRunning8 years agoIf you left your job can you still get vacation pay? And when?
I quit my job Dec 27th and looking at it I have a good chunk of vacation pay to get paid out to me. Problem is I left in a not very good way and have not talked to them nor want to at all so how do I collect?
Short story is - Been working with them over a year and a half, not a great place to be but I loved what I did just not the co-workers. I was trying to give them 2 wks notice but when customers where phoning into head office to say what idiots they are for letting me leave to their competition it got ugly and I just left without giving them the courtesy of 2 wks bc it wasn't given to me. The environment was hostile as anything.
They already had my letter of resignation however they usually get you to go in and fill out this online form of formality which I've yet to get done. Normally they harass you to get in there but I've yet to hear from them nor as I say do I even want to step foot in the place....but I want the vacation pay!

Can one really get their account back after it's been suspended? I want my 400 fans/contacts that I had. It was a level 7 acct, TC in Running and Marriage and Divorce.
Can it really be gone just bc you have a certain person tracking/stalking you altho they can say really nasty stuff and yet they are still on here.
Yes I'm mad as a bear getting stung who's just wanting his hunny.
