Many past runners said it had never happened before. Great job on finishing alive! That's what's important in those situations.

Like we "shouldn't" be running every day and we "shouldn't" be doing a long run every week. We just can't recover enough to gain, so I'm changing things, sounds like you are, too!Steve Perohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06233567281691642089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703638681789211135.post-69579663103759632142014-04-29T08:47:59.354-06:002014-04-29T08:47:59.354-06:00Read the latest article first and actually said th...Read the latest article first and actually said there that I am running now only 2-3 times a week. I do go to the gym on other days, where I weight-train 30 min and Stairmaster another 30 min. So, kind of similar approach? (I need to read the links you posted to that guy's articles). Glad you get your HR fix.

At first I was feeling low energy eating this way, then an article I read on No Meat Athlete sparked something. Eliminating meat only does just that, eliminates protein, calories, amino acids, etc. You have to replace what you took out. All I needed to do was start eating a lot of bean and rice burritos and added a daily smoothie that I drink after my run every day, which is more fruit, veggies, but also includes either olive oil or almond butter for fat and protein. It's actually quite easy, but not for everyone...Steve Perohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06233567281691642089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703638681789211135.post-51852521300816539722014-04-01T09:03:17.159-06:002014-04-01T09:03:17.159-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Steve Perohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06233567281691642089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703638681789211135.post-73875038042118119782014-04-01T05:19:26.987-06:002014-04-01T05:19:26.987-06:00My stomach has always been an issue and I found it...My stomach has always been an issue and I found it was because i was doing things to it...putting things in it that well it did not like...I agree with the no meat way of living but at this point I am not ready to go there mostly because I am too lazy and uninformed about how to eat a balanced diet to get protein from plans nuts and grains...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01426725362805307346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703638681789211135.post-9321057155080020022014-03-31T07:32:36.329-06:002014-03-31T07:32:36.329-06:00Thanks, Olga....it's all part of life and we n...Thanks, Olga....it's all part of life and we need to deal with these things and not be worried about how it affects low priority things like running.

I won't be entering any more races after Zane Grey because we don't know when our house is going to sell, so we'll be spending most of our weekends hiking in Colorado.
