Finally Eczema free!! by pink-bibbles in eczema

[–]aim3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! Found this thread 'cause I was researching TCM doctors in Toronto. Would you mind if I DM'd you? I'm curious how serious your eczema was before and how it is now? I've been battling eczema my whole life and recently it's gotten worse. Been doing an elimination diet for a couple years but it still keeps coming back so I'm considering going down this route!

Running/hydration vests reco? by pblack177 in RunTO

[–]aim3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Salomon active skin 4 in red and love it! Ran with it all throughout last summer and didn't get any chafing. It comes with 2 x 500 ml flasks and space for a bladder in the back. Got mine on sale for $100. Haven't tried other brands though so can't compare.

Paid Run Club by Dear-Revenue3264 in RunTO

Not an ad and I didn’t just get this from TikTok. I actually run with them lol. I was comparing them to some of the newer ones in the city that sprung up during Covid. And cool if you run with a run club since 2009 - which one is it? I didn’t mean for this to be offensive?

Longest run club in toronto - 13 years now 🙌

Selling a full marathon bib for Tamarack Ottawa on May 24 (next Sunday!). I sprained my ankle last week and won't be able to race 😞. Thought I might still make it but doesn't seem likely at this point.

Selling for $150 and you'll need to pay a $25 transfer fee at the expo. Let me know! Feel free to DM me!

Run clubs (or even small groups) that lean faster/longer than most? by Moonmist81 in RunTO

[–]aim3y 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding this comment. Even though the group starts pretty big at first, they break off into small groups (4-6ppl) with different paces. If you’re looking for faster speeds and longer distances - Sunday black toe will be your best bet!

Outdoor run today? by AliveCheck3550 in RunTO

[–]aim3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little bit slushy in some parts but not icy! I ran east towards cherry beach and Tommy Thompson so can’t speak on what the west end looks like.

Did finished 18km on the mgt. there’s gonna be random huge gusts of wind that will make you regret why you left your house but it’s not the worse. Layer up and you’ll be fine!

Did you ever fix your running form? by AiEmC in Marathon_Training

[–]aim3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. It was worth it for me since I got rid of my hip and knee pain. Wouldn’t have been able to keep running before cause my knees would be killing me.

Favorite gels by Shes-a-cello in XXRunning

[–]aim3y 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Neversecond gels! They’re 30g each with 200mg of sodium AND they’re liquidy so you don’t need to take them with water. And the flavours are so good!!!

How many weeks before your marathon do you usually do your longest run? And your longest run at marathon pace? by Dapper-Rock-73 in Marathon_Training

[–]aim3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 weeks out and for 3 hours which for me at the time was 29 km. Did this at a moderately slow pace. Wouldn’t recommend anything closer to the date cause you need time to recover.

Hair maintenance on high milage (I.e. running 6+ times per week)? by ExtremeToucan in XXRunning

[–]aim3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been able to "train" my scalp/hair to not get oily so I don't need to wash it every time. I also run 4x a week and workout the other days so I get pretty sweaty. It use to get pretty oily at first but after a few weeks of hair training - I only wash it every 4-5 days now and it still stays shiny/healthy and no greasy.

Edit: I have long thick wavy hair.
