I don't have your problem (female) but having breastfed two kids I feel your pain. There are clear dressings called OpSite that you can get at a surgical supply store or drug store. They stay on really well. I use them on my feet when I have blisters, just pop the blister under clean conditions and ...

Me too with the sub 2 hour half. The closest I came to it was the 17th Wing in 2:07 this May. That and my ever problematic 4th toenails that I am encouraging to heal while it is so hot and I'm down a bit in my mileage. (I wish they would just magically disappear overnight)

Just to clarify, my intention was to get the driver's attention not to damage their car. It did get the driver's attention but you make a good point about worrying about being assaulted by a crazed car worshiper. I yelled a profanity at someone who almost killed me with their car once and they got o...

Everyone has moments of inattention BUT it's when they are bearing down on you with that "I'm looking at you but I can't see you because I'm carrying on a cell phone conversation" that makes me have a major rant. I kicked a car door once when I almost was hit. Luckily they didn't chase me.

Looks and sounds kind of gimmicky.

On call today so could only do 10 k on the treadmill. Turned off the fan so I could sweat a lot and pretend I was running outside. Have to save the long run for tomorrow morning when I'm free.

I haven't had any dog attacks but last fall had a huge grey squirrel launch itself onto my leg while I was out for a run. It had been staring and barking at me on and off for a few weeks on my usual route. It freaked me out so much that I had to kick it off my leg.

I've been making DH's bread (I don't eat sandwiches so I eat very little brad) for the past 6 months or so. I use a breadmachine, I didn't think that 1.5 tsp was a lot of yeast? My jar of yeast lasts me at least a month or longer. I only make one loaf a week though. I mostly make it because the qua...

These are great stories-lots of inspiring and humorous situations. Thanks for sharing them.

My first race was the Manitoba Marathon in 1981. I was running quite a bit but not really training with a goal in mind. I didn't know what to expect so just ran it like I was out for a regular run. I managed to finish in 4:04 (I never did break the 4 hour mark) and what I remember most is just cryin...

Yikes, that's painful. Hope you're better soon.

I am celiac too. I can tolerate oats since finding a brand that is grown in a Saskatchewan field that hasn't grown anything but oats for 5 years. Most other oats are contaminated with the usual list of offending grains right from the field.

Me too. I've been pounding the Winnipeg pavement for 33 years.

This is great with pork too. Turns out like shredded pork.

Peel and slice the peaches and sprinkle them with fruit fresh (easy to get in the canning section of your supermarket-usually near the sugar). This is just ascorbic acid (and some sugar I think) and it keeps them from going brown and maintains the texture. If you don't have any fruit fresh, lemon ju...
