A random running question.

You? Enthusiastic about spin? Noooo….. They will love you because everyone loves someone a little crazy ;-) I love when I see running stickers on other cars! I feel an instant connection with them and immediately start wondering about their times, training, etc. I don’t think I would put one on my own car though. I went grocery shopping yesterday because I decided instead of buying expensive cake balls I am going to start making my own that are even better! We will see how that turns out….

I was 12 when I got my first cell phone! I remember getting it for Christmas and it was basically as big as a brick, and super embarrassing if I look at it now.
Oh man, I haven’t been grocery shopping in about 2 weeks now and I basically have no food left. Oops. I really need to get to the store.

Your baby gets cuter every day!

My sister and I just completed our first half and it was located in a city about an hour away from us. On our way home, we stopped into our fav sports store and got our stickers!! Love them!

I don’t have a sticker but I feel like maybe I should. That’s so funny that putting the sticker on your car was the first thing you did. Funny girl!

BROOKE IS SO CUTE! I just can’t get over it!

I’m personally not a fan of stickers on my car. But I love seeing ppl with running stickers on their car, instant connection with them haha

I think those stickers are awesome. There’s nothing wrong with bring proud of your accomplishments.

I got my first cell phone when I was 12 and I hated it. I hated having to keep it on me and frequently left it at home when I could. Now I feel lost without my phone. My now times change

I’m all about the stickers. People in Texas tell their life story through car stickers.

I get what you mean about the gym class situation. I went from a crazy gym with a lot of woo-hooing to a very calm and mature one. I find myself woo-hooing every once in a while. I miss the craziness.

Before I met my husband, I hated stickers on cars. Now I accept them. Our car has three: Boston Marathon, M-dot, and a flying ice cream cone aka Airborne wings. I find them helpful in locating our car, as sometimes they all blend together.

We also sticker hunt on the road, and call out what stickers are on various vehicles. It gives the navigator something to do on direct routes. We do that for bikes, too.

I LOVE the first meal after grocery shopping. Such variety to choose from!

I just ran my first marathon a month ago, and I’m considering whether I want a sticker or not. I’d like one I think? But I feel funny because I’ve only ran one? I don’t know. Perhaps I’ll get one sometime.

Oh I love my 26.2 sticker on my car and I love seeing other running stickers on other cars. It makes me feel like a have a bond with that person sitting in traffic next to me (or does that sound creepy?)

Went to the grocery store last night and picked up Noosa yogurt to try. I got the blueberry flavor and OMG IT TASTE LIKE CHEESECAKE!!! CHEESECAKE!!! Seriously you have to try it. It is hormone free yogurt that is in the organic section, it is made in Colorado. It is not low fat or low calorie by any means but let me say it again, it is the best thing ever. CHEESECAKE!

Pfft. Once they have a taste of the Janae awesosauce juice, they will never want to go back. I only wish I could go to your class. I got to my body pump class today 15 min early and all the passes were gone. Grrrr. I am so tired of my gym being so packed to the point of not being able to workout – it is annoying.

I have never put any stickers on my ca for tris, relays, halfs and what not. My friend bought me a 26.2 sticker to say congrats and that is the first time I have ever wanted to put one on my car cause dang I earned that. But Ross said no. He doesn’t want people thinking he runs or something. Whatever.

I was at the store yesterday. I got some blueberries from Costco that I can’t stop eating. But I need to go back and buy red bell peppers and hummus because I can’t get that idea out of my head.

Your meals have been so healthy and well rounded lately – and no candy. I am starting to worry that I don’t know you anymore ;) I know you are prepping your body for sub 3 and you will get it. I will be at the finish line to cheer you on!

Love my sticker. I couldn’t help putting my 13.1 on the back of my car when I got home either ;)

Good luck with your spin class!! I just got AFAA certified this weekend I’m hoping to teach some sort of class in the future! :)

I got my first phone when I was 16- the school 3rd graders I intern with all had cell phones on the top of their Christmas lists.

My favorites to dig into after grocery shopping are fresh avocados and mangos!

P.S. I’m currently in a nutrition and fitness class, I am researching exercise and pregnancy. I was wondering if I could use pics of you while pregnant and some of you and Brooke from your half after having her for a powerpoint that I’m working on?! Thank you!!!

I like the car stickers, and I don’t have any problem with them. I used to have a 13.1 sticker that was specific to the Blue Ridge Half Marathon on my back glass, but lost it when the glass had to be replaced this past fall (thanks a lot, stupid tree….). Have you heard about the “distinguished” 26.2 stickers? I read somewhere about someone making sub-4 26.2, sub-3 26.2 stickers, etc. since plain 26.2 stickers seem so common now. I also saw one that said 27.4 and underneath it said “I got lost” haha.

My hubby doesn’t like stickers on our cars, so we compromised and I put a 26.2 window cling on the inside of the back window… Only problem is that the windows are tinted so no one can see it – but I know it’s there!!

I ran my first Half Marathon last May and it took me about 2 seconds to buy the sticker to prove it! I rock it on my water bottle though, you know, so more people can see. Haha just kidding…kind of!

I got my first cell phone when I was in 6th grade! Totally too young, but I had strict rules and monitoring on it. Nobody but Mom, Dad or Granny could be called haha. They didn’t let me give out my number till I was 16. Personally, I’m gonna be the annoying mom that makes my kid have the Disney phone until they’re 16…just so they’re too embarrassed to take it out!

Yeahh not gonna like one of the main reasons why I actually went through with signing up for a half marathon was for a sticker haha :) If for some reason I don’t finish I might be more disappointed about not being able to use the sticker than not being able to finish! Also Brooke is probably the cutest ever!

I was 16 when I got my first cell phone. It was just for safety purposes. They weren’t super cool then, so I actually would leave mine at home all of the time, which drove my mom CRAZY! One time, my car broke down on the interstate. I was with 4 friends, and none of us had our cell phones! I thought my mom was going to kill me!

I totally plan to get one of those car stickers when I finish my half marathon. I’ve been working my butt off to run those 13.1 miles & you better believe that everyone is going to hear about it – whether I tell them or my car does.

Hey Janae! I go to the same gym you work at! (I’m not a creepy stalker I just recognize the pictures you took at the gym haha) What time are you teaching spin? I checked the online schedule and I didn’t see your name! I would totally love to come to one of your classes since all of the spin classes at that gym are quite interesting..I would be excited to take yours!

I got my first cell phone at 16 when I started driving my parents wanted to keep track of me!

I like seeing stickers on cars, although I don’t want any on mine. I love Brooke’s face – she’s definitely up to something.

I know some people think they are lame (especially non-runners) but I personally love the 26.2 stickers! I put one on my car after my first Boston marathon and just recently had to replace it!

Funny story about those… when I first met a friend of mine a year ago (not a runner) she thought that the sticker represented some radio station that I loved. She asked me “what is this 26.2 station that you listen to? My radio doesn’t get that station.” lol

yup. i’m a fan of the stickers. my husband wouldn’t let me put the 13.1 on when i did my first 1/2. but now that i’ve done a whole, there’s this respect that he has and he says i can:)

first cell phone was for my 18th b-day!

i picked up some bulk trail mix last night that is already gone:( a weakness!

We

When anyone comes in our house we have to tell them to put away all their “technology” or my toddler goes crazy and only wants to play with computers, iPhones, and iPads. Then when we take it away she is so cranky! It’s crazy! We have to reserve the phones for difficult diaper changes.

After I ran my first half I immediately put the 13.1 sticker on my car. I have a new car now and am thinking of adorning it with “another mother runner” sticker :)

what do you think about the car stickers that display your love for running…… weird, cool, lame, awesome? Do you have one?
-I LOVE them. I have a 13.1 sticker on my car now. I have a 26.2 on my amazon wishlist so when I finish it, I will immediately buy it and put it on my car.

When was the last time you went grocery shopping? Did you get anything especially delicious?
-I go every Thursday. And we bought a party size of pretzel M&Ms. They were on sale for 6.50!!!

How old were you when you got your first cell phone?
-I was 17 or 18. My mom let me borrow hers, but as soon as I learned to text on it, I had to purchase my own.

I just ran the Ragnar Del Sol 200 mile relay….they give you a Ragnar car sticker when you finish. I never was really into the mileage stickers but I put this one on my car right away for some reason…..maybe to just remember how crazy it was every time I see it! :)

I love the stickers. I like seeing other runners on the road, and recognizing them by their running stickers :) I have a 26.2 sticker, but I didn’t feel comfortable putting it on my car until after my second marathon. I guess I wanted to make sure I wasn’t a one hit wonder :)

Love that you posted that question about the 26.2 sticker!

When I was training for my half, all I could think about was finally being able to post that 13.1 sticker on my window and finally be a part of this awesome running club/society!

BUT now that I’ve done it, I almost feel like 13.1 isn’t enough, so I haven’t put it on my car yet. It’s crazy how no matter how much I run and run sometimes I always get that “it’s not enough” feeling. It’s part of the vicious cycle that makes me so in love with running though. But CONFESSION: At the half marathon expo I bought a 26.2 headband like yours to give me something to stare at and keep me motivated in training for my full!

I have a pink 13.1 sticker on the left side window and will be getting a 26.2 for the right side when I finish my first full after the baby is born. We work hard to finish these things and who cares if you want to show it off personally I do and love it!

I guess a 26.2 sticker is better than a 26.2 tattoo, but I don’t love either!

I have a 26.2 and a 13.1.. Love them!

I think stickers are great, I have a 13.1 and I want to complete a full so I can display a 26.2 as well. I saw a very nice metal car magnet I think I will get.

Good luck for your spin class teaching!

I’m totally with you about slapping that 26.2 on the car after running my first marathon. I mean, we just ran 26.2 miles. We can brag on our bumper sticker if we damn well please. I don’t know about you, but I always feel a camaraderie with the other cars with 26.2/13.1 stickers. Us runners have to stick together, in the race and when commuting to work. ;)

I have the same 26.2 sticker! :) :) xo

I got my first cell phone when I got my license. My parents said I needed it in case of emergency.

Mike gave me a 26.2 magnet for my car the Christmas after my first marathon. My car is definitely rocking it.

I love the stickers! It’s motivational to me. I have a 13.1 sticker but have yet to put it on my car. I bought my husband a 0.0 one since he doesn’t run and he thinks the stickers are annoying.

My car just has one sticker on it, in the back window, that says, “RUN.” However, I have a ski box that stays on year-round that is, literally, covered with stickers. I have the 26.2, a 13.1 and a ton more of skiing and running shops, gear, and events. It makes it hard to be inconspicuous while driving around this small town, though!

I take pride in my 13.1 & 26.2 so of course I slapped them on my car as soon as I could :)
They’re a good reminder everytime I see my car.

I love them! I have a running mom sticker and run like a girl sticker on my VW Bug. I have ordered my 5k, 10k stickers and when they come in they will be on my car. I can’t wait to run my first half marathon so I can put that sticker( which I already have) on my car this April :-)

I love that sticker….nice! I basically got yogurt, spinach and bananas for my green smoothies. I get a huge tub of spinach so I can make salads too or for dinner .

i used to have a 26.2 after my first marathon but then i got a new car! now i am very proud of the ironman symbol i put on there, even if a lot of people don’t know what it means.

The absolute first thing I did when I finsihed my first half last year was stick my “I rocked 13.1” window sticker on my back window!! I am planning to add a 26.2 magnet to that by the end of the year. I also feel a sense of comraderie when I see the stickers, and in my running group we all park together and EVERYONE has them so I would feel weird without one! Haha.

I just went grocery shopping on Monday and I got fresh guacamole from the produce section… heaven! I got my first cell phone when I was 16 and shared 400 minutes with my mom and aunt… needless to say, I was put on my own plan shortly thereafter lol!

I love stickers! They show accomplishments and I love when you’re on your way to a race and you pace people on the highway with them. You KNOW they’re going the same place as you and you immediately wave. lol

Also, I think the way you teach spin shouldn’t change! I remember my first spin class, the instructor was booooring. I didn’t want to go back but I finally went to another instructor and she yelled/sung/etc. and that’s when I fell in love with it! I think you’ll bring a bright new spin on everything! ;-)

after my first half, I went straight to the running store and got my 13.1 sticker!!!! Heck yeah, it is a must!!! You know how hunters like to mount their big buck, elk or bear because they are a trophy, well a 26.2 and a 13.1 sticker is no different!!! I have a 13.1 license plate now!!!!!!

Love the stickers! If you earn them, flaunt them! I’m running my first half in September and am very eager to earn my first sticker!

I love the stickers!! I put my 13.1 sticker on my car as SOON as I got home from my first half!!! I haven’t ran a full yet but have plans in the future to do so and you better believe I will put that sticker on as soon as I finish also!!
I go to the grocery store almost everyday!! Can’t stay out it it!! The last delicious think I bought has to be the apple pie with crumb topping and it was sooooo good!!!
I was about 24 when I got my first cell phone (I’m old and that’s a few years after everyone and their mother had a cell phone) so my boyfriend at the time (now husband ) made me get one cause he could never get a hold of me. Before the cell phone I had a beeper!! Beepers were so funny!!!

Oh I’d DEFINITELY rock the sticker! It’s brag worthy!

I will most DEFINITELY be putting that 13.1 sticker on my car the second the race is over!!

I laughed so hard the other day coming back from Memphis, TN when I saw a vehicle ride beside us and the sticker said 0.0. Still makes me giggle.

Good luck teaching your spin class!

I proudly display my Boston 2011 26.2 & my Ultra marathoner stickers on the back of my ride.

I’m so obnoxious with my stickers, but it’s a tradition for me! I have seven “26.2” and two “50 mile run” on mine. I only brag about my running on my car :) I was tempted to put yet another on after my last 50k, but decided against it. I also have this weird thing where I have to touch one of the stickers at the end of my run (I always end at my car — either in my driveway or at the parking lot of the trail). Right before I finish, I think of which sticker I want to touch, then I touch it, and the run is done! Weird, I know, but hey, whatever works. :) Your daughter is beautiful, by the way.

All I have to say is I am running my first half marathon in April and I will be putting a sticker on my car afterwards!

Also, I tried the omelet recipe before and I LOVE it. I will never go back to eating plain old omelets again. :)

That was the only thing I purchased at my first marathon expo – it’s now my little happy reminder of what I was (and am!) able to achieve! It’s also a nice motivator when I see it through my window on days I don’t want to get outside and run!

I am not sure where you are getting your information,
but good topic. I needs to spend some time learning much more or understanding more.
Thanks for wonderful information I was looking for this information for my mission.

I have a sticker that states 52.4.
