What are your thoughts on running gels?

Answered by a doctor

Any regular gel users here? I'm relatively new to them-never used them for my long runs or other workouts but I figured sooner or later as my long runs get longer (2 hours +), Ill definitely need some sort of fuel to keep me going. I just got a couple of packets from the store just to try during my...

How NOT to run when your are injured?

Do you ever get disgusted with yourself?

I've been doing well with my short distances but seem to have a problem with my long runs. What do you do when you just want to say f**k it?

What is causing me foot pain?

I'm currently suffering from pain in my left foot. This was probably due to staying in old shoes for too long as I logged about 400+ miles on my previous pair before changing into a new pair earlier this week. However the pain persisted in the new shoes as well even though they were supposed to be...

Anyone else get cold after a run?

And I don't mean running in the winter, I mean all year long. It's only about 60-something here in PA today, which is perfect for running, no sun, very overcast, so a little cooler even than Friday when the sun was out. We just got back from a short 3 mile run and I am sitting here in a sweatshirt...
