Haha yea I read the hunger games, all 3 books actually. And I was like you I didn’t read them until my 18 year old brother (who never reads) told me it was really good. So I read it and I definitly can’t wait to see the movie.
Swim workouts leave me the most hungry. Yea running does too but not as bad as swimming.
Haha I don’t think I have anything to add.
And eggs, definity eggs and cranberry juice.
completely forgot swimming! heck, it’s not even when i workout in the water, but if i grab a floatie and just splash around my stomach starts growling!! lol
Loved all 3 of the Hunger Games books! I’ll second what Sara said – any kind of water workout leaves me a thousand times hungrier than running. It’s crazy!
amen about the swimming! i read that it has something to do with the lower temperature it tricks our bodies into feeling hungrier because our body temp usually stays much lower than while running. i wonder if it would be the same if we worked out in a jacuzzi….lol.
Err I’m with you on the trends thing. I haven’t read Twighlight, or Hunger Games, haven’t seen the movies….yeah, I’m not too enthusiastic about it haha. I’m ALL about playing hunger games with running though!! the progression run is my FAVORITE run of all time, I sometimes do them unintentionally when I get into my happy running groove haha. And weights…dude, my coach is having me take a 3rd week off from the swim/bike/run workouts to JUST lift weights (she wants to get all the muscles firing so that I can start running strong)….and OMG it makes me ravenous!! I guess cuz my body’s not used to that kind of workout haha. Nothing compares to runner-hunger, but weightlifing is def close!
hey, so long as i can wrangle u into OUR style of hunger games!! 😉 and it’s true, that weight lifting and hard work in the weight room can awaken the beast as well. keep up the great work in the gym girl because all of this will parlay into improved running when u get back to it! u’ll rock! 🙂
yes!!! read all 3 books in record time this past fall. it was kinda nuts actually. i cant wait to see the movie…the actress is from KY. woo hoo. shout out to the home state.
pretty much getting up makes me hungry every morning…but running definitely brings out the HUNGER BEAST. and i really do love cake 🙂 have so much fun with your bro!!! sounds like a blast!
haha…i’ve never been to KY but i’ll give a little woot woot! 🙂 okay, but i love this part soooo much “pretty much getting up makes me hungry every morning” TRUE THAT! 🙂
