Because I'm temporarily in a hotter climate than I'm used to, I tend to do my aerobic stuff early in the morning, then hide out in the AC most of the day. But then I love evening walks, which is a whole new thing for me! There's a wonderful tiredness afterwards and it beats plopping in front of the tv. But I have no idea how to make my walk "virtual!" (And I'm grateful for Rick's tip about the dried nana's as I'm off to Trader Joe's today and will look for them!) Okay, I have to admit I never even heard of virtual running!

Great running with you, with all of you guys. A neat concept. In our local Trader Joe's Grocery store here, they have dried nana's in easy to carry packs. No sugar or preservatives added, just the real thing but easier to carry and last longer. Yum, I could eat a few.

What a coincidence :) Congratulations with your v-run! My hubby was a bit more difficult to persuade as our run time in manila is 4:30 am. I don't think it would've helped to lure him with reflective bands or headlamps either. Maybe the promise of new golf clubs would've worked :) I'm training for a half marathon myself. Looking forward to reading your archives on how you trained and accomplished such a feat :) Nora,
