I remember signing up the week before the race way back when ... times have certainly changed. And I don't know if it's true, but I've been told that post-run, all-day chills might be a product of poor nutrition/post-run fueling, provided it's not something more obvious - like it being chilling indoors.<br /><br />Great job on the post-holiday weight loss!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377440606704745517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-85662654192146322782011-01-31T07:24:45.038-05:002011-01-31T07:24:45.038-05:00Yikes, just getting out there is a win in my book....Yikes, just getting out there is a win in my book.
