I know it’s kinda hot, but I have a craving. Where can I get a really good popover? A warm one that will melt the butter. Bonus if it’s large.

I know this comes up a lot, but I have to say again that JJ is just a damn good coach. All around! I frequently do his strength workouts and today I jumped on the tread for a 30-mn intervals with him. It was the right amount of encouragement and positivity. I ran farther/ faster than I thought I would today. Thanks to him.

And he looks great in yellow! 💛

Highly recommend his intervals run from 6/27 with the yellow shirt if you’re feeling meh about your run.

Curious if other runners find it helpful or annoying? Like you have to run a lot when you’re training. The more I run, the lower my readiness scores are. I do take legit rest days. Yesterday was a long run, my active calorie burn was around 1500 and today my readiness score is 70 (sleep is 86).

I generally don’t rely on the ring as an activity tracker — I don’t think it’s accurate, but it’s helpful for rest/ recovery. I feel like when I’m training hard I just ignore the readiness scores and listen to my body.

What do other runners/ serious athletes do? Is there something I’m missing? Is it really not that useful for training? TIA

Starting HRT again after a long break during which I had my period again and peri symptoms settled down. Well, they are back and they are worse! I got an estrogen patch for 0.0375. I’ve had it on for three days. Still having hot flashes but now also crying and bloated. I’m starting Slynd today (micronized P made me super depressed and constipated). Wondering how you know if the E dose is the right dose. How long do you wait before adjusting it? I know it is v individualized, just feeling miserable and beat down by all of this bullshit.
