By Anne, on January 18th, 2012 The big day is coming up: the Milwaukee-area runner’s reunion that we refer to as the Icebreaker Indoor Marathon Relay! Here are a few tips to get you through the day… sort of like an FAQ from what we’ve learned in previous years.

Before the race starts you can place your belongings, warm ups, and water bottles here, and during the race it will . . . → Read More: Tips for the Icebreaker Indoor Marathon Relay
By Anne, on January 17th, 2012 We’ve talked about #runstreak and #plankaday, now I’m adding my own daily dose of activity: I’m doing 30 days of the 30 Day Shred. As Jillian says, ‘it’s a little bit old school, but really effective’! I’m about halfway though and I wanted to share my findings so far.
The Shred

But once I moved some furniture around and got started, I found that it was energetic and fun, and it . . . → Read More: Challenge: 30 Days of 30 Day Shred

Amy Kant

I first started running because my some people I met through Twitter run and I wanted to try it and to get to know them better. Turns out, I really enjoy it. I continue running to lose weight and to spend time with my running buddies, who’ve become some of my best friends in the entire world. It also doesn’t hurt to travel the country for races! It gives me an excuse to go places.

By Anne, on November 15th, 2011 If you’ve ever dealt with an injury as a runner, you know it is frustrating and your brain tries to take over and tell you that you are being lazy by resting, and that you should push it past the point of pain no matter what the consequence. But, you and I both know that’s the wrong way to approach things.
One of the benefits of having a large network of fit friends is that, by reaching out on Twitter and Dailymile, I’ve been able to gather lots of advice regarding how to heal my . . . → Read More: Recovering from an injury: a collection of good advice
