Posted Wed 15 Apr 2009 11:11pm NBC's "The Biggest Loser" lost a contestant, Laura, 24 years old, to a stress fracture of the hip yesterday 4/14/09.

Perfect Saturday! by katrinaruns Posted Sun 11 Apr 2010 9:14pm The day started off with a beautiful trail run. The trail was a little muddy, but the canopy of trees filtered out a lot of pollen so the air was cleaner. I ran 10.7 hard miles. I felt good, though. No pain, the knee and hip were quiet. It seems I’m finally out of my 2 year agony with IT band/hip stress fracture issues. As long a ... Read on »

There are periods of un-blah-ness, like when I’m at the gym takin ... Read on »
