How many women view this message board ?

I've been reading these boards for a couple years now....posted for the first time yesterday and got picked on a bit :) (I didn't see others had posted the same thing a couple of mintues before)

I'm 33 yr old former collegiate runner - trying to get back in shape after some time off. A pit bull bit me while on a run late last year - luckily I only had really deep puncture wounds!

I am trying to remember why I started reading in the first place...I think my boyfriend at the time told me about it, and also because I know JK and the Johnsons. But now I am pretty much addicted and seem to use letsrun as my primary news source. Sad.

Please, tell us more.

Shouldn't you be playing poker...

Thats a bummer man. I ran for years without dog problems; then moved out to the Okanagan, place of orchards, and had 3 attacks in a month. It makes you want to be rough with the owners of these mutts. My first attack was a rotty. Just at the 10k point in a run and I hear bushes and small trees coming down. Out from the orchard comes "the thing"!

I stood back and hollered go home and he stopped; but backing up a little, I tripped and gave him courage. He came over and nipped me on the knee and was getting ready of more when a pretty auto parts delivery girl in a jeep came honking across the highway and stopped it. After that I carried a little can of mace that I ended up using within two weeks. Keep up the running and...doesn't hurt to carry that little can with you.

In my little town,I get the weirdest looks if I stop to get something to drink at the gas station after a run. Here's this woman in running shorts, a tank top and mud splattered all over her with her hair all disheveled. I just smile and act like I'm dressed for Church or something. You say your 3 kids are presenting unusual behavior. I have THREE girls and only 1 boy. My son only shook his head when his newest little sister was born and said,"I can't handle 3 sisters!" In a few more years I might be right there with him when their budding hormones emerge. YEHaw! Fun times!

I enjoy reading, but frankly, I'm too scared to post--there's no mercy on this board!

Three girls! ShNikies... now thats a challenge. i used to think my one girl was a neutralized to the hair wire boys...but things have definitely changed. May all of your girls run 80 mile weeks at the appropriate time; go through educaton and find a male they can synergize with....eithter that or they become Rappers, put metal things on their tongurs and paint themselves like GOTHS!

You have you hands full...but at this moment, relatively speaking, you can relax, enjoy, study and prepare for the next go round;;; hopefully it will be extreme athletics or studies. But good luck... Meanwhile, you're doing the absolutly best thing to cope by runing and challenging yourself. Do you like to race in Oregon? How about B.C.

Washington State....how bout something realllll personal...

do you like blues? Well, I guess I have a problem with hyperbole. Adidos for how and sure hope that you are a "studette"!

Post away...cast caution to the winds.

Ah, please post, fair lady. Just simply write something that you know will get a rise out of the majority of males here, wait for the responses, and then read 'em and LAUGH!

Man, my booty and chair be stankin! Every time I read a letsrun post I just fart. Every time I post on letsrun some shit comes out. My underwear gets stained and it has stained my chair. But when people come over I just spray some air refreshner on the stained chair. My running friends who sit in the chair have no clue. Anybody want to come over?

How many threads do you need this nonsense on? By the way what is a Prefountain? Is it what they put in place before they build a fountain?

28 years old; former runner on top-25 Division I team, but never been to nationals myself; currently still running 40 miles a week, racing about 19 flat 5k; just your average local road racer now.

That is not average miss. That would win you or place you in the top 3 where I am (Massachusetts).

20 yr old girl (running in a d1 college) -- frequent visitor, infrequent poster. Just like reading up on the news and occasional training insight...and even the occasional not running related post.

47, definately 70's old school, tabori trained, ducked out, early 90's roadie, retired, back , still running around coaching my fabulous high school guys..reading y'all for a laugh, fresh insights and checking in on 30 years worth of old friends. So y'all watch your mouths on this board!

I live in VA and don't travel much for racing. I think I am a "studette" At least I have had 4 kids and can still wear a bikini if I choose. I've been told my legs are gorgeous. It's all of those miles. Now my girls, they are going to be real studettes. Oldest one has auborn hair and green eyes, competes in Karate and wins. She can twirl a bow and swing some mean nunchucks. She is only 9. Girl #2 is all of 5, has golden brown hair, big blue eyes and can beat all the little boys in her little dragon's class. She still says sparring scares her but she is tough. My baby is 10 months old, with strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes and was walking at 9 months. She is wild. My poor boy has to keep on his toes with these three. I'm still running pretty well, mid 18's for 5k and I'm approaching being a masters runner. I don't race much cause of carting these 4 around to soccer matches, baseball games and karate tournaments and now swim team.

I read it but don't post much. I'm 36 mom or 2 former college 1500m runner, now running marathons.

Kind of disturbing that you're presenting your 9 year old daughter as a "future studette". We have enough problems with pictures of high schoolers on here that we don't need descriptions of babies.

You’re a very lucky man; I have had many Female friends but only two lovers. And I am 25 so I must be a very great looser. So I am willing you know more then me under the covers. I do not lack grace good looks or style, and I have a smile is disarming and charming.

In my heart I have always known and felt that for each of us there is one person whom is perfect for us, and hem for us as a person.

I slipped up once, and slept with a girl whom did not present who she was till we had a child, and wonderful little girl. I would like to say I am angry and full of regret but had I not slipped up I would not have my little girl Natasha. And it was not till I had her that I realized my ideas regarding love where right. If you truly love someone, there really is no reason. That love remains there regardless of season. You love them for who they are and you love them for the ways they think up to ornery.

I know no that you love someone for all they are and all they are not. And I am soon that end the end I will find what I am looking for.

PS

Having spent hrs in the middle of the night with a sick child, go to programs that where just plain boring. And been amazed at just how many ways you can eat and Ice cream cone, and be ornery which at point can be exasperating. I have no respect for those guys whom are player and play games. Games that can produce something so dependent and wonderful are game that anyone who plays just do to lust. Are games of a type I have no respect for. Kids require a hell of a lot more, a pat on the back at having made another score

Your right to have respect for gals even if I don't agree with how you express it.

You've probably slept with two more women than most of the dorks on the board will before they turn 25. But you need to get Hooked on Phonics my brother. Seriously, it'd help you connect better with the ladies for you to overcome of that dyslexia problem of yours. Go to an Easter Seals chapter, they can help you out with that.
