        I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but can't you just freeze a banana at home?

            Balboa bars/frozen bananas and actual penguins....fun thread today! My cousin used to live on Balboa Island, it was her and her husband's first apartment after they were married. I have been there!

             

            Well there was a FIRE during my 10K and they made us stop running. I ran less than 3 miles. BOO. I, however, wrote a RR anyway cuz there was other cool stuff about my day I wanted to share... report is up!

                  I wish I was kidding. The race runs under a bridge, and a car caught fire on the bridge. For safety reasons they stopped the damn race. I really am unlucky with 10Ks. Seriously. Either I have a major IT Band issue, it is deathly hot and humid, or they stop the race due to a FIRE. The 10K remains my nemesis....

                        Zelanie - No they are not recommended for PAD. They help blood return from the legs, I have problems getting it there in the first place.

                          I have the opposite problem.  Blood just likes to pool in my legs.  I wonder if there is anyway they could put some of my veins in your legs.  I can't complain though.  I just have to take an Aspirin a day and wear tights.  If I don't wear tights, I just have to elevate my legs after a run.

                            PAD - good for you keeping on running despite the pain of PAD.  My husband had it, and was able to restore circulation by doing a lot of walking and hiking.  He hasn't had any problems for years.  OTOH, a friend who had PAD stopped walking because of the pain and ended up having a stroke at age 49.

                              Oh, OK, that's the opposite of what I was thinking.

                               

                              6 really nice miles for me tonight.  The cross country team was out practicing on the trails, which at least kept things interesting.
