Paralyzed woman finished marathon
This left me speechless. I lost it at the 13-month-old (“Mummy’s gonna getcha…)”

Build Your Fantasy
I’m not even going to pretend that I have a clue what the whole fantasy-league stuff is about, but I know that some of you are really into it (baseball, football), so I share this—you can now have your own fantasy track & field team. Um, have fun…I guess. (Note: this apparently started last week, so I don’t know if you can still join in the fantasy fun).

Calories vs. Carbs
Should you be counting calories or watching carbs? A doctor weighs in. This advice has recently run true for me, after 10+ years of a low-calorie, low-fat diet, I’ve got the other way and lost 12 lbs. without really trying.

Dude, WHERE can I get some fly headphones like those? (Oh, right, 1983).
Greatest workout songs evah
Men’s Health has come up with a list of the 10 greatest workout songs of all time and, I gotta say, they hit it. There’s only one on the list that makes me go, huh?

Wear your accomplishments on your wrist
Did you know you can buy cool running-theme and race beads for your Pandora bracelet? I found them at InspiredEndurance.com, but I’m sure they’re sold all over the place. P.S. If you don’t know what a “Pandora” bracelet is? (It’s like an updated version of charm bracelet where you add beads that are meaningful to you…and where the manufacturer and jewelry shops make a mint off tiny charms/beads that probably cost $1.20 to make).

If this Rodale article “The 15 Grossest Things Your Eating” isn’t enough to make you lose your appetite, I really don’t know what will. Hyperbole? Likely, but…you clicked and ewwwwwed, didn’t you?
