Blogroll the third

Not much new to report on plus I'm flat out at work today.

So figured I'd share yet another list of things I read this week that I find relevant.

Train Like an Athlete:

• Why runners don't lose weight.
• The biggest 5ks in the US - I'm dying to do the Gasparilla (see: Pirate Christmas) Distance Classic, but I don't want to do anything to mess up my Star Wars training.
• Why stress management is an important part of your training plan.

Think Like an Athlete:

• Running makes you sexy AND smart.
• Even incredibly fit people aren't perfect.

Eat Like an Athlete:

• I've mentioned struggling with binge eating disorder, but not so sure my struggles cleanly fit in that category - so found this article on "Other specified feeding or eating disorders" (OSFED) relevant.
• High fat, low carb diets make you more sensitive to leptin (the "fullness" hormone) - and
• Fats make you lean.

Sleep Like an Athlete:

• What might happen if you only get 6 hours of sleep each night.
• Taking naps makes you more productive.
