I have a question for those of you that had a TAH...when does your heart rate return to normal during workouts?

My surgery was four weeks ago last Monday, with complications (he nicked my bladder,...

I put Body Glide on any blister prone areas before I put my socks on. It usually works!

Another way to add oats, especially in warmer weather, is to put 1/4 cup of raw oats in a smoothie. I make mine with plain yogurt, strawberries, oats and a little milk.

DH did IM FLorida in 2007. As usual, I volunteered at the race. The night before the race at the volunteer meeting, they announced that the volunteers would have a special line to sign up for next...

I agree with JuJu about a visit to the dermatologist. When adult acne arrived with my 40th birthday, I started going regularly. I did not realize what wonderful products are available at their...

It may be a little far for you, but there is the Kiawah Triathlon on September 21. It is just below Charleston, SC.

I have the same issues. This week, one climbed in my lap during the boat pose and the other kept standing up with his paws on my hip during a balance sequence! I'm pretty new at this and they are not...

I like the Calypso (Callie for short) idea. Or you could keep with the turtle theme and go with Myrtle. My neices and nephew had box turtles named Myrtle and Yurtle.

Thanks, everyone. I thought it was just me! They are supposed to stay on for 3-4 days, but one workout and I'm taping them back on with band aids!
I'll ask about the gel.

I have recently started wearing a patch form of HRT and they do not want to stay on during workouts. Does anyone have any experience with patches? My doc said they are designed to stay on during...

I have been using the plan since last fall and I love it. I take my breakfast, lunch and 2 snacks to work every day, so it is a little more work to get everything ready the night before, but it is...

There can be other unexpected benefits, also. DH just did the Florida Ironman and I volunteered in the women's change tent. The night before the race, they announced that they would have a special...

I'll second your choice of Jamis. I ride a pink Jamis Ventura and I love it.
Enjoy!

Has anyone tried the Chris Carmichael eating plans? I read his Food for Fitness book a few years ago, but I had a hard time applying it (it's my non-mathematical, lazy brain). I went on his website,...

My mom has done the testing for food triggers, but it was years ago. Her family doctor initiated & monitored it. She can't eat cheese, sour cream, chocolate, red wine, hot dogs or similar processed...

Masters is really just a swim team for adults. There is a national organization with a website that can help you find practices in your area as well as swim meets, ets-http://www.usms.org.
I am...

Poor George looked so disappointed!

Is anyone doing the Cheat Mountain Challenge this weekend or have you done it before?

The best bike shop IMO was not on the list. Check out http://www.charlestonbicyclecompany.com/.

You could also have a contest and pick the best design.

I like beginnertriathlete.com. You can track cycling, running & swimming and add other activities like weights or walking. You also can import race data. It's pretty cool for a freebie!

I think I remember a series of letters in Dear Abby about crowing roosters. Seems like people wrote in and said the rooster could not crow if he couldn't stand up and stretch his neck. The solution...

Don't forget to bodyglide your neck and be sure to go all the way under your ears. I do not own a wetsuit, but have rented one twice for our area's first tri of the season in April. I remembered to...

Madscot13, this is my favorite lasagna recipe of all time. I sometimes add more veggies like chopped spinach or grated whatever to the onions & peppers. It does freeze well. I also use whole wheat...

Thanks, but I am already registered.
