If you are a woman runner

30 years of age or older

PLEASE

I need your help!!!

** I am doing a project for my Physics of the Human Body class at the University of Utah. I am so excited about this project but desperately need your help. All I need you to do is take 5 minutes and complete my online survey. (It might not even take that long.) I am trying to get an idea of why women in their 30s and above run and how it affects their lives. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me by taking the quick survey and forwarding the link to as many women that fall into this category as you know. I would be so grateful. Also, if you could respond to this post then I might get enough responses to get it on the Hot Discussions List in hopes that more people will see it. I love you gals. Thank you SO SO SO much!**

HERE'S TO WOMEN RUNNERS EVERYWHERE!!!

Thank you so so so much Amy! I think I have the link working now. (Crossing my fingers.)

I got it and filled out the survey. Let me know if I can do anything else to help. Good luck!

From Teena Marie on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 12:15:07 from 174.52.45.85

Amy --

From DonGardinero on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 12:21:57 from 75.162.171.239

Teena Marie...I'll see if Amy and my sister would like to fill it out. Does it matter that they are both injured right now?

From Teena Marie on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 12:24:53 from 174.52.45.85

Dale --

That would be FANTASTIC!!! No, it does not matter that they are presently injured. They are still runners!!! :)

From DonGardinero on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 12:40:55 from 75.162.171.239

Cool! I'll pass it on.

From Andy on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 13:38:27 from 198.60.114.178

I forwarded the link to my over 30, running female facebook friends.

From Jody on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 15:08:25 from 98.202.166.116

Teena,

I took your survey. Hope it helps!

From Smooth on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 15:50:57 from 174.23.215.144

SSF! I took the survey! I am forwarding it to some of my running friends. VERY COOL project. I hope you get to present it. Please let me know how I can help. I hope it turns out successfully for you. Keep us posted. LOVE YOU! :)

From Teena Marie on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 17:01:25 from 174.52.45.85

Andy --- AWESOME!!! Thank you so much!!

Jody and my SSF -- You are so great! Thanks a million.

Also, thank you to several others who have already taken the survey. Everyone is being so helpful!! I am so excited about this. :)

From DonGardinero on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 18:37:01 from 75.162.171.239

Ok Teena Marie, Amy took the survey.

From Teena Marie on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 20:30:37 from 174.52.45.85

Dale -- Tell Amy thanks!! :)

From Burt on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 21:59:57 from 98.177.216.165

I was once announced as the third place winner in the women's 35-40 age group.

From AmberG on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 22:11:40 from 209.33.225.220

Dang I'm 29!! Does it count if I turn 30 this year?

Good luck w/ your research, I'd be really interested to hear your results!!!

From Teena Marie on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 22:25:40 from 174.52.45.85

Burt -- :)

Amber -- I think that sounds right ... seriously, if you are 30 this year that would be GREAT!

From RAD on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 23:01:32 from 67.172.229.125

So, if I turn 30 in 7 days I can take it too? I was going to ask if I had to wait until next Monday, but Amber beat me to it! So I'll hop on and take it!!

Did you email the BBK's?

From Teena Marie on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 23:15:46 from 174.52.45.85

Thanks Rachel!!! :)

No, I did not email the link to the BBKs. I don't have that list. Any chance I can talk you into doing that for me??? :)

From Smooth on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 23:18:21 from 174.23.215.144

SSF ~ My daughter just forwarded the survey to her running friends in TX. :)

From Teena Marie on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 23:22:23 from 174.52.45.85

SSF --

I just recently has a response from someone in TX!! :)

You have no idea how wonderful it is reading all of these surveys. I feel so lucky to have found running. What an amazing bond it forms between all of us. I love it!

How was your day?

Any soreness from the run yesterday? I feel GREAT! :)

From RAD on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 23:38:01 from 67.172.229.125

Done and done :) Hopefully that will help your responses as well!

From Teena Marie on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 23:45:57 from 174.52.45.85

Thanks Rachel!! :)

From Smooth on Sun, Feb 07, 2010 at 23:50:29 from 174.23.215.144

SSF ~ Other than feeling sleepy (and hungry) in one of the Primaries I visited, I felt GREAT today. No soreness! I'm being lazy though. Hope you're getting your homework done! :)

From Teena Marie on Mon, Feb 08, 2010 at 00:05:20 from 174.52.45.85

SSF -

Two families brought us sugar cookies today. Needless to say, I am no longer hungry but feel sick to my tummy!!! See ... you don't miss sugar at all!!! :)

I am very tired though. In fact, I am going to get ready for bed now. So sleepy. You should get some rest as well. :)

Love you!

From Smooth on Mon, Feb 08, 2010 at 00:11:00 from 174.23.215.144

Prez. made dinner tonight! :) We had nachos, popcorn, dried fruits, oranges while the boys watched Super Bowl. I watched the last quarter with them.

I'm getting ready for bed too.

G'night! LOVE YOU!

From vinh on Mon, Feb 08, 2010 at 07:26:40 from 75.77.22.187

Sounds like an awesome project Teena! Just trying to help you get on the hot discussions list! =)

From Burt on Mon, Feb 08, 2010 at 08:31:35 from 98.177.216.165

Don't wear sackcloth Smooth.

From Rhett on Mon, Feb 08, 2010 at 16:09:31 from 74.32.219.217

I'm not a woman runner, but I live with one. I'll have here get on and do the survey.

From Lyman on Mon, Feb 08, 2010 at 20:08:17 from 170.135.241.45

I once won the overall female division of a triathlon (true story!). Does that count? If so I'm happy to fill out the survey.

BTW - the woman that came in second was very upset...

From Teena Marie on Mon, Feb 08, 2010 at 22:41:39 from 174.52.45.85

Hey everyone!!! Thank you so so so much! I just got home and logged on and I have close to 50 surveys so far. My hope is to get roughly 100 so things are off to a great start!!! THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH!!!!

Lyman and Burt -- So funny that you both placed in the womens division!! Love it!

A special thanks to the many women who have taken the survey so far. You are amazing!
