Bacteria don't die in freezing temperatures.

Anna- Thanks for volunteering! Hopefully I'll see you at a race sometime soon. You got a free race for volunteering, right? Do you know what you're using it for?

I thought that they said you get a free race for volunteering, but I never heard anything or got a promotion code from them so I would have no idea how to redeem it. Plus, I havent decided when my next trail race is going to be (other than a 10 miler in Tilden this weekend...if my calf recovers in time) because I am starting marathon training and so I have to work anything I do into my training schedule from now on.

What is your next race?

Well that works out good for me (I can work on my tan), but sucks for you. I am impressed that you are even attempting it. I will keep an eye out for you. I am at the rock city aid station from 12-4 (it looks like it is 12 and 14 miles into the race) so you might pass before I get there (I dont know what peoples pace is on a course this hard). I think I am going to mostly see 50 milers.

By the way: Are you running the Tilden Tough Ten at the end of May. Since you also live in Berkeley it seems like an obvious choice. I am running it!

it's not actually the calf but feels under the bone on the outside of my leg. if that makes sense.

i can't really touch the part that hurts but i can feel round it and it's a little tender but not painful to the touch.

I still vote for soleus...it is behind the gastrocnemius (calf), in closer to the bone (it is almost completely covered by the calf so you cant really get to it. Unless you think it is definately not a muscle, then the only things that I can possibly think of are a stress fracture or some strange achilles pain.

Thats a really high estimate, but even if true...most everyone naturally eats more when they exercise a lot without realizing it. The way to realize it is to track every bite that goes in your body.

Re: Weight Watchers question

guest — Wed, 23 May 2007 19:27:00 GMT

I dont really know what you mean by meal plan? Weight watchers isnt really a meal plan. There are plenty of vegetarian WWers. I count points and although I am not vegetarian, a large number of my meals are becuse they are lower points that way. You will have no problem finding low point vegetarian recipes. However, I encourage you to try joining a regular ww group. That group support and accountabily just cannot be replicated online.
