I bring my phone, always. If I did crash, I don't want to depend on someone else to call the cops/paramedics. What if the guy is a jerk & leaves you stranded?

I carry the phone in a bag that's attached at the handlebars, but its on vibrate, so I don't have to answer if I don't want to, plus I can look up bike places close by if I get a flat or anything else goes wrong with my bike, if anything the location of a good bathroom. lol 

I only trained 3 times a week for my marathons or any race and that is including training for my ultra. I would like to see some temp runs in there and some strength training those two to me are so important. Good luck

I started the Insanity program yesterday with the fit test and today I completed the first workout. I know people have amazing results with the program, but I'm just curious about those that have had surgery do with the program. I am 16 months post op today and still about 10 pounds away from my own personal goal. The only thing I am worried about is how much I need to be eating. Everything I have read on the websites say to increase your calories. I'm not going to lie, I am terrified to increase them too much and also trying to figure just how I am going to increase them. I still have great restriction and do not want to push that. I also plan to continue going to the gym during the 60 days of the program and lift. I have been working out consistently for a while now so I know my body is up for the added exercise.  

Anyways, any thoughts, advice, experience? 

I have a small prepay phone that I keep a few hundred minutes on. No one has this # except my kids. They know I will have it on if they need me. I also have all my favorite music on it so I love carrying it and it would not be the end of the world if I dropped it.

    I am gone 2 or 3 hours a day. I run the track and work out on the empty football field. I love working out  outdoors. The gym is in running distance so if it is weight day I just run up the hill to the gym. Most of the time I am in areas where there are no people so I carry it with me all the time.

We asked this question a few years ago I think.  I'd like some input for you newer distance people.  I only ride in town for the most part.  Sometimes I'll put the bike in the back of the truck and ride different routes.  I'll be 61 in September.  I'm also on blood thinners.  Anyways, during my short rides (less than 2-3 miles each way) I don't like to carry my phone.  It's my away time.  If I broke down or crashed everybody has a phone now and I could get help if needed.  If I go longer than 3 miles I will carry my phone...For safety reasons.  So where are you on phone carrying??  Does it depend on where the ride or run is located?  Thanks, Brian
