One - having seen some of the photos running around here - should we start an exclusionary "trim (or at least trimming) bastards" club? Two - I've started running again, and for the life of me I cannot get rid of these runners shits. It doesn't even seem to matter if I shit an hour before hand - I STILL wind up doing the waddle and clench back to the house. Any pointers for fixing this brown problem? |

[lumberg]Yeah...about that, did you get that memo? Your gonna need to shit before you head out on a run...mmmk?[/lumberg] I've actually never had this problem, or even heard of it(though I always need to shit before I run), and I have dabbled in running off and on for 11 years. Course the only time I have gotten off is when I was injured. Today was my day off and I ran 4 miles easy, plus 4 more miles at a 4:36 mile pace. Yeah...my body hurts, but today was refreshing. Hitting it hard tomorrow with two of my (literally)Kenyan training partners.  ETA the person below me speaks true, but I thought it was common knowledge. Don't eat for 2 or 3 hours before you run. It is asking for all kinds of trouble. -Ben |

from Mrs. Hobbit- The brown problem is a pretty common topic on several runners' forums (see coolrunning.com & runnersworld.com). Don't eat anything 1-1.5 hours before running, especially avoiding high fiber, super colon blow types of food. If you are going for a long run or a race, do an easy jog for about 0.5mi, take care of business, and then head out. You can also try something like hot tea or coffee to get things moving before running. Hope this helps. |
