Helpful Hints
Question:
I know we have new runners joining us daily. A couple of helpful hints to the new members is read the FAQ’s. This will help with several questions you may have. Also I was unaware of the Dejanews site until Mike Tennett wrote about it. There is alot of past information you can get from this site. I’ve been apart of this newsgroup for well over two years and continue to see the Timex vs. Casio, best marathon book, etc., etc., over and over. This may help you in your search for that type of information. Also we seem to have alot of new doctors or trainers or dieticians or coachs or anything you want and/or wannabes here. Remember this is a newsgroup of fellow runners and the information you gain here is to be taken as helpful hints and suggestions, I’m finding less and less true facts and more personal thoughts or beliefs that are trying to be past on as facts. Alot which are WRONG and/or BAD information. Just be careful. Use this as a guide. But if you need a doctor, see a doctor, if you need a running coach, see a real coach. There’s alot of GOOD people on here trying to help others, then there’s alot of people who’ll disagree with everything and anything anyone posts too. Don’t always believe everything you read here though regarding running/training/speedwork/diet/ibuprofen, etc., etc.. Just some food for thought. David/IndyRunr

Thanks for the advice David. And don’t forget to warn people about the political rants, such as the Anti Nike League who’ll tell you not to buy Nike, but are unable to answer questions on the subject without resorting to personal attacks. Miles — Cut the 0_fin~SPAM_ to email back to me

Miles, the fact is we’ve answered the questions dozens of time, with FACTS to back them up. It’s a little annoying though when you have the same people who have difficulty comprehending it, or they’re denying it, or defending it and flaming you in the first place.

"Difficulty comprehending it" you say, "denying it", "defending it", and "flaming you". Why use four phrases when one will do – "disagreeing with you". And how dare they disagree with you? * * http://www.quebec.demon.co.uk/running *

You can disagree with me anytime, you can flame me and you can disagree with the FACTS too Charlie, that’s all okay as you’ve done proven. That’s your prerogative. But if you want to start a pissin contest, I’ll piss right back.
Your problem is that you don’t know what a flame is. For someone with so much to say, you seem a little sensitive. * * http://www.quebec.demon.co.uk/running *
