    The hard part would be what kind of run? If you are looking to off road then all the parks are closed during the week; so that leaves the urban places to off road at. Also, most of us work M-F so mid week runs are pretty much impossible.

    Oreos after a work out is probably very counter productive. Oh well

    Actually the sugar right after a weight workout is good for the recovery process of the torn muscle fibers.

    Just do it in small doses after you lift weights. Maybe 2 Oreos. I was doing a small handful of gummy bears for a while when I was hitting the weights hard.
