Evilwoman – I have never taken water on my runs. It’s strange but I’m generally ok. However now that my training runs are getting quite long I planned on equipping myself with some. :)

Jenna – I’m sure the scale would show a creep up if I looked at it but I haven’t! I packed the scale. :)

Thanks for keeping us updated while u were on vacation. My favorite was all the twitpics!
I do have a question though. I noticed on some of ur runs you weren’t holding a water bottle. I have been running for about 9 months now and I can not run without one, I never have. The most I’ve ran is 5 miles and I can’t run imagine running 10 miles like you do without one. Even if you stop and catch a drink at a fountain or something, is that enough?
Okay so my question is did you used to run with one? Did u ween urself off of carrying it with you? How do you make it without one? I feel like I’m dying of thirst if I don’t have one with me. It may be 50% mental though.
Just thought I’d ask.
Thanks Roni!

what a great mentally to go into vacation with (food wise) its pretty much what I do on a weekly basis never deprive. Just out of curiousity since you may have induldge a bit more then usual…..did it do much damage scale wise? You look great in for pan grilled veggies post it doesn’t look like you did at all

I’m glad you’re back Ronnie, and you inspired me more than you know while you twittered through your vacation! I saw that you were burning sometimes more than 1200 calories on your runs and i was just AMAZED! Only on a hardcore day can I manage to burn 1200 and I thought to myself: If Ronnie, teeny tiny Ronnie- who started out close to my height and weight, i’m 5’11, 194 lbs- can burn 1200 in a workout- SO CAN I!!!! So, most days I had been aiming for 1000, now i’m aiming for 12 FOR SURE! Thanks for the inspiration Ronnie, and you’re family is super cute!

Wow! I can’t believe the house! It’s coming together so quickly. I’m sure you can’t wait to be moved in and settled. Welcome back from your vacation :-)
