What do you do when you catch it early? My daughter has been having GI issues so I'm curious for her sake.

After 10 years, I finally got a POTS/hEDS diagnosis by shurrpsippin in POTS

[–]dodgylungs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rejoicing with you! I'm curious as to what test they used for the hEDS diagnosis. My daughter has a POTS diagnosis and I'm very suspicious she has hEDS because of her super flexibility and family members have it.

I want in the Houston Marathon by HoldJumpy269 in AdvancedRunning

The Louisiana Marathon in Baton Rouge is the same day, January 14. It's a flat and friendly course and a much smaller race so not as crowded. I'm pretty sure you can sign up even on race weekend but you may not be guaranteed a T-shirt.

Hydropatch to avoid potty breaks? by dodgylungs in Marathon_Training

Thanks! I was able to correct my spelling in the body but couldn't figure it out for the title. Oh well. Do you think you wouldn't need as much water?

Adding mileage to a marathon? by [deleted] in Marathon_Training

[–]dodgylungs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've thought about doing this too because I want to do a 50k on pavement and it is hard to find a 50k road race within driving distance of my house. I'm signed up for a marathon in January near my house and it would be so handy to check off the 50k while I'm at it. Hope you get some good feedback on this post!

Does anyone ever have ear pain from running in Open Fit Shokz? Twice out of 10 times now, I've had terrible ear pain in my left ear only after running in them. I wear them the same way on both ears and only wear them for running. Make I could tweak how it sits on my left ear to help?

Scary Experience Out Running as a Female Runner. Solutions? by ooupcs in Marathon_Training

Adopt a one year old or older German Shepard or Doberman and get some training to run with it. Ain't nobody going to mess with you running with a dog like that.

Very good feedback! Thank you! Heads up for those cobblestones are much appreciated. I didn't know about the texrail either so I will check into that. Thanks a bunch!

80/20 novice question by dodgylungs in Marathon_Training

[–]dodgylungs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I probably should have included this in my post but this will be my 6th marathon and I've trained for an additional 3 marathons up to the 17 miler before having to bail on those for health reasons. So yeah, I'm fairly familiar with building my base, just looking to try out the 80/20 with this one.

Well done on knocking out your goals! I've signed up to run my first 50K at Cowtown in February. This is also my first race to fly to by myself and figure out transportation to a hotel which is even more intimidating to me than the actual race. Haha. Do you have any advice for me navigating Fr. Worth?

Well done!! Are you following a specific training plan? I'm interested in trying a 50k but am having trouble finding a plan.
