DIS Unplugged WISHers

[dpuck1998]

It's not doing better but I deal with it. You two bums need to get up early and run!!!!!!

Ugh, I know but I just can't run in the morning I've tried and tried and I don't stick with it.

Great job! I was thrilled after my first 5K and it really gave me a shot in the arm. Now I have to get back at it



I wish I could (have the will) to run in the morning. I just hate the mornings and get up about 5 mins before I have to walk out the door.

Actually, I just went through that epiphany-I started working out after work and it has made a HUGE difference for me. I'm in a better mood, I enjoy the workout more and best of all-I actually DO it instead of planning for it and then hitting the snooze and skipping it. Sure, I'd love to be one of those people that gets up at dawn and gets out there-but it's just not happening.

Arrgg! I wish this weather would turn for the better. I haven't been on my bike in three months! I've put on a few pounds over the winter but not bad. I just don't like how I have to eat when I'm not riding.

It looks like Sunday will be 65F, I can do that.

Good morning unplugged wishers! I'm somewhere around Atlanta (halfway point). After I try to find some breakfast, I will be on the way again. My workout today will consist of yelling at traffic and outlet shopping in about 7 hours. I might resort tour too. I have been waiting for this extended weekend for so long!

Well, you know what they say, your voice needs a workout too sometimes.

Enjoy the rest of your trip and best of luck in the race.

Atta boy an hour of football last night, 3 mile run planned while waiting for the kids Karate class at the Y and a solid upper body workout at 4pm. No hoops or chat tonight (finger workout) I have to go see a friend perform standup in GR.

Okay...Tonight at 6:00PM - Cardio, Core, and upper body workout. I should be in chat around 9:00PM.
We'll miss you in chat tonight Don. Have fun in Grand Rapids.

Me neither. I hit the gym on the way home from work and hit the road in the evening during the week. Unless it is a race I don't even run before noon on the weekends.

I have to workout in the morning for my job. It's great to get paid for working out!

I'd love to do that too. Our gym gets very, very crowded at the end of the workday. So much so, that you have to wait for weights (LOL) or you bump into people. Not fun.

Not a bad gig if you can get it....I think.

I'm sure that is a great perk, but you still have one of the toughest jobs out there. Not sure I could do it.

Another good gig if you can get it. I'd bring my boom box (1980s talk) and crank it during the workout. Sometimes wearing earbuds can be annoying. In fact, I don't even bring my IPod anymore.

Speaking of that, I can't find a good set of headphones to run with. I currently have the Nike running headphones that work good. Problem is with my new iPod shuffle the controls are on the headphones. The earbuds suck and I can't run without them falling out.

I haven't had any luck finding good earbuds. I bought a set of Bose QCIIs for lounging around at home, but use the earbuds that came with my IPhone. Problem is sometimes they fall out during cardio, or I get my hand/arm caught in the wires and they get jerked out of my ears. Gosh *(#*@!!! Is it just me or does that happen to anyone else?

Tuck the cords into your shirt thru the neck. It works for me while wearing the i-pod. I run in an underarmor shirt so it keeps the cord pretty secure. If you wear a loose shirt it might not work so well.

Agree, I do that when running, but the earbud style won't stay in my ears. Of course I'm a train wreck when I run, all over the place. I don't use them when lifting however.

You lift weights? Wow, I would never have thought that judging by how you look. Weird.

Just the little 5 lbs ones. Nothing heavy, I don't want to lose my girlish figure.

Don't worry, you'll never lose that set of man b00bs!
