Hi - I'm a newbie here. Just wondering if anybody can help me. It says in my Silver membership that I am entitled to enter 3 virtual events each year. However I can't seem to find out what a Virtual Event actually is!!! Can somebody give me some direction please? Thanks!

Why am I not loosing weight?

littleheaz — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 11:45:43 -0500

I am a new runner...

For the past 3-4 weeks I have started back up with running for 3-4 miles per 5 days per week (one rest day, and one day of toning class).

So far I have not lost any weight, I have actually gained weight. I am not sure why this has happened, as I eat healthy.

Is this normal? I don't look any different and my clothes all fit the same way.

Any advise would be helpful!

Thanks!!

Problems with weight on my profile

Hi, I'm new to MapMyRun and I have a little problem: No matter what I do, the profile always displays that I weigh over 450 pounds! It's even given me the Challenge goal (Lose weight in 30 days) of going from my starting 93kgs to 215kgs. I'm not sure I want to gain that much weight just to gain a red ribbon! :P Seriously though, is this a problem that can be fixed on my end, or is it a system issue? I have changed my profile weight multiple times on multiple days and it still insist it knows better than me. Any help greatly appreciated. Cazzie

Most of us don't leave the house for a run without an iPod or mp3 players-especially when our training plan calls for a long, slow, distance (LSD) run. For my LSDs, I typically mix up my playlists, including some slow tempo tunes and some faster ones, and borrowing some tunes that remind me of times past, and some more recent stuff. Check out by my current LSD playlist:
