normal= all those members of earth’s society that can actually think in terms other than topics listed in the YW CR
How’s everyone’s running doing in the cold weather?
Shindy – have you joined any of those Freehold races?
Saying goodbye for a bit…
Going away for 2 weeks to a balmy climate. Yay!
Taking my running gear, because I want to leave footprints in the sand and not beach chair prints…ok, maybe there’ll be some of those:)
Sayonara!
ashreinu- sayonara? you headed to japan?
Ashreinu – you’ve been missed here. I just emailed you…
Ashreinu: have agreat trip!!! we’ll miss ya!!!
i love running in the cold with the wind blowing in my face!!!
asdf – I love starting the run with hat and gloves only to have it tucked in my pocket 10 minutes later…
Curious: i know the feeling!! i can’t stand running with a hat!!!
ill stick to running on a treadmill.
surfer: try outside, it’s such a mechayah!!!
dont like the cold
surfer: the cold is great!!! in the future when talking to a poster write their name before your comment, so we don’t get confused if it not a fast postin night like tonight!!!
Our treadmill just died so I may have to actually run outside now… I’m not looking forward to it but I have a running suit. As far as my head… we’ll see…
yoshi – you’re tempting me. 9 1/2 months, many more miles to go…
I don’t mind the cold and snow. Ice is the huge problem. I’d rather run on the treadmill than risk some broken bones when it’s too icy outside.
i like the cold, but the ice is horrible!!! i only ran for 45min today cause i didn’t want to turn into an ice-icle!!! i know a guy who just walked to shul yesterdday & broke his arm on the ice!!! it’s crazy out there!!!
I hope you all took huge advantage of the gorgeous weather today! It was amazing!
Yoshi – During my run today, I passed an old Russian guy with a cane. As I pass him, he starts yelling “Faster, faster, faster!” I had a good laugh. I guess he wants me to make up for whatever he can’t.
And I am the only one who attracts dogs while I’m running? I hate them!
opposites attract.
Thanks for the comforting words Joseph.
I’m glad the comfort didn’t come from the dogs! 🙂
Joseph – when you start jogging/running you’ll be invited back to this thread…
Curious – You have not been using YWN or the CR long enough. I don’t need an invitation to any thread.
Here’s my attempt to get Ashreinu and yoshi back:
Any of you monitor your HR while running?
When I use the treadmill, I check my HR every so often and it shoots up much higher than I’d like it to. I’ve tried running slower and it has helped a little, but my HR is still sustained at a much higher rate than it should be.
(You can check out Runner’s World for the desired HR zones)
Unfortunately, there was a tragedy a few days ago where a young man running on a treadmill was niftar: http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/article.php?p=30062
In the comments somebody posted that there are some young people who have certain heart conditions that can make exercise dangerous.
Curious: nope i never bother with gadgets!!! i had a geshmak run this am!!! so glad ya got this thread back up & running(ha funny one!!!)
running is a waste of time.
torahtziva: it is not!!! once you start you’ll love it!!!
With whatever criteria you’re using, “v’nishmartem me’od” would be a waste of time as well. Just eat lotsa sugar, junk food, processed foods (the more preservatives and chemicals the better!) make sure to overeat, don’t get checkups, don’t use a dentist or any other medial practitioner (G-d forbid) and whatever you do, DON’T EAT YOUR VEGGIES! They’re a waste of precious time too! Don’t make any efforts to improve general wellbeing in life AT ALL – that is DEFINETELY a waste of time.
(Sorry for the sarcasm, it’s outta character for me, but that comment was just begging for it)
torahtziva: i perssonally don’t run, but i can assure you that it isn’t a waste of time.$
ames: yeah you could-running on a machine, makes you a runner still!!! but one of these days try a good morning run outside, it’s awesome!!!! i run every morning for an hour & a half after shachris, before yeshiva!!! i’m kinda a fitness fanatic!!!
asdfghjkl: how many times are you gonna tell us that you run every morning for an hour & a half after shachris, before yeshiva.$
qwertyuiop: sorry for repeating it so many times!!! i just wasn’t sure if she knew abt it cause she was gone for a bit & this thread was b4 her time!!!
ames: curious is a girl & she runs daily!!!
asdfghjkl: don’t worry.$
what is the point in running, learning torah is healthier?
torahtziva: i forgot who states(if smeone else knows, please tell us.$ that it’s important for a person to excersise his body.$
ames, I’m flattered.
If you have a treadmill at home or a gym membership, you can run indoors. Also, I don’t run within my neighborhood. I’ll either walk (my warmup) away from the center and then run, or I’ll drive to a park/not so populated frum area.
Disclaimer: I do NOT run daily, if I run 3-4x/week I’m happy. This AM I set my alarm clock early to go run before work. Instead… hit snooze and went right back to bed 😉
torahtzivah – I do both at the same time, run while listening to a shiur. What’s better than that? Tending to body and soul.
torahtziva: yes learning torah is healthier, yet we need time to unwind in a healthy way too!!! as qwertyuiop mentioned it’s important to do excersise in order so that you can better serve Hashem & do mitzvos!!!
qwertyuiop: i think that vort is in referance to shema!!!
Curious: ha i hope you make up for that run by running double time next time!!!
Curious: that sounds like something i would do.$
Hey c’mon qwerty – asdf’s enthusiasm can’t rub off on you?
qwertyuiop: yeah buddy, my enthusiasm didn’t rub off on you yet?????
It’s got a long way to go across the globe apparently…
Curious & asdfghjkl: i like to sleep, when i’m in the mood.$
qwertyuiop: i too love to sleep, yet i make it my obligation to run & exercise as much as i could!!!!
asdfghjkl: that’s great, i guess we have different schedules.$
qwertyuiop: i guess so then!!!!
yoshi: welcome back, and that’s a lot of running you do.$
