Advocare 24 Day Challange - Day 3

Not much to report on this day except if you plan on trying this be prepared to poop. A LOT.

I'll spare the dirty details but seriously it got a little ridiculous yesterday. Between the fiber morning drink, the increased vegetables, and evening Herbal Cleanse I've been spending some time in the john. When it says to drink plenty of water be sure to drink plenty of water. Half your body weight in ounces is not an exaggeration.

Day 1 of Advocare 24 Day Challenge

Well day 1 is in the books. If you are not familiar the first 10 are a detox cycle. Spark drink first thing int he morning followed by a fiber mix 30 mins later. Then at night theres a herbal cleanse involving microflora and essential bacteria for digestion.

I got to say my bowels are getting some rumbling going on.  Well day 2 here we go. Hoping this works.

Milesplit went the way of the subscription

...sigh....

Everybody wants a piece of the pie I guess.

I can't really blame them. New company buys out Milesplit and then sees the pay markets work better. Then gets a little snooty on the forums when everyone commenting is in an uproar about the pay system. Well, duh. All the mice had their cookies and milk and now you want to charge for the milk and possibly promise extras? Yeah, people are going to be upset. Plus now every single athlete needs a subscription to check stats? I have 20-30 throwers. There's about 60-80 track and field athletes. Assuming ....let's say even 25% of them subscribe that is still in the ballpark of 700 bucks or more a season. Oh yea, and the ads on the pages are still running. Nice.

It's not all tragic, I guess. We can still enter meets, see results, and supposedly look at articles despite the very first article I wanted to see was under subscription. Which, ironically, is how I even found out today. Just random curiosity on who is who that is returning this year. My exact reaction?

Was a bit of a shock. Not going to lie.

Well here's my plan. Since my interests essentially lie only in the throws I'll just mash together my own ranking system. Hopefully I can get some help with results getting sent in. So if by random chance you're an Ohio throws coach (sorry, not doing the rest of the country) here's my email dprater200@gmail.com . Send in those results. Then with some collaboration maybe I'll filter out the D1 and D2/3 division.

I already did this before but the rankings were easy to access. Now this may get a little tricky.
