How long did it take you to enjoy running?
This is my sixth week getting back into running. I have never been a distance running, but used to be a college athlete. I am signed up for a couple 5ks this summer and a half marathon in the fall. I want to enjoy running, but it just feels like a chore. I am up to running 2.5 miles, and I am running about 3 times a week.…

He doesn't even know what failure is.
So I spent the day moving furniture around trying to find the best set up for my 3rd child to learn to walk in. Up until now we had been keeping him in a very contained play area where all his toys are he can crawl to each, and he was totally fine playing in his baby "jail" while I cooked dinner or folded cloths. But…

How late is too late to send a text or call someone?
Hi guys, I was wondering if there's a certain time when you should refrain from texting or calling. I know everyone is different and has different sleeping patterns, but I'm asking in general, what's a good time to stop out of respect and courtesy? Does that time vary on weekends vs weekdays? Especially if it's someone…

Have you ever taken "those" kind of pictures?
So, have you ever let your significant other - long-term or just a fling - take 'those' types of pictures of you? Or selfies of those sort to share with them? Did you do it because you were proud of getting fit, or was it hard-wired that you're just into that from the get go?

Please help me to understand this better. Plus I liked how it used to show you, your average calorie intake for each week. Now I can't even…
