What do you guys think about merging the Running and Weight Loss threads into one?

I get that some people run for fun / sport and not for weight loss, but the two crossover a lot.

Could be:

The Running and Weight Loss Thread

I think they're different things. So I'm down with keeping them separate but if there's a large enough demand to merge we can certainly do that.

If verb were alive he'd really give coach an earful about that silly idea.

By the way, if you're fueling right, you probably won't lose weight anyway because of all the carbs and calories you need for increased mileage. There are so many more effective ways to lose weight than running.

I used a treadmill this morning, but I couldn't really get into it. I'd probably need to vary the speed and incline from time to time to keep it interesting. I just worked up to 6.2 miles an hour and stayed there for about fifteen minutes then got bored and stopped

Yeah that's the battle with the old 'mill. I should still probably get one for bad weather days, but meh.

It's a good way to catch up on albums or shows, and it's easier to commit to a harder pace than you're used to, but yeah, treadmills mostly suck.
