I have found that running improves my biking, but biking doesn't do shit for my running. As far the weight issue goes, are you mixing up your runs? Doing some harder than others, doing some intervals, etc? If you are just running easy miles all the time, your body is going to get used to it and become more efficient at it.
And good morning to all the rest of you lovelies!
That man looks like he knows his way around a bongshed!!
What he said. Have a goal look, not a goal weight. Who cares what the scale says if you look good.
Additionally most active people will lose more fat from strength training than cardio. Cardio burns calories during exercise but strength training burns calories during exercise and increases muscle mass which increases your resting caloric consumption (muscle mass consumes calories during rest so for any extra muscle you put on you get a metabolism boost). If you want to run, short intense runs like hill climbs or sprints are much more efficient for burning calories than long runs. But if you ride your bike once a week that's probably all the cardio you need.
And if you're one of those girls who's afraid to get "bulky", don't worry about it. You have to try really hard to get bulky. It doesn't just happen by accident after doing a few squats.

The fellas have already said what I was thinking, so I will add... If it truly bothers you. Go see your doctor, and have them find out what your actual body fat percentage is. From the sounds of it you will be pleasantly surprised to find out you are putting on more lean muscle
Or...... You could just go full ride monkey style and post up pics and we will give you a full evaluation......

Soooo, serious for a moment.... Last night at work, my night started off with headcou t, and finding an inmate face down on the floor of his cell covered in spilled coffee and urine and none responsive.
Called for a second to join me at the door before we went in, started talking when we went in..... Turns out he was faking it. Still, no matter how many times I have come across such a sight in my life, I still get the "damnit, I'm gonna have to explain this" feeling....

I tend to drop weight during periods of intense exercise, then pick it up fairly rapidly during recovery. The difference can be five pounds or so.
Thanks for all the ideas!
My main goal would be fitting into my work wardrobe. My clothes are suddenly so tight I leaned over and ripped my flannel last night. I do look at the scale for reference, but am more concerned about splitting the seat of my pants at an interview! Most of my weight goes to my boobs and butt and I bulk up quick, so now I'm getting super defined legs and arms. I'd rather keep the muscles and boobs and lose the skinny stress anyway!
I do a different run every time I go, but I could mix in some HIIT or something, I do yoga for (body)weight training since I don't really need a lot to build muscle. It's all fun and I'm really glad to have the time to do it all right now! And, I'm pretty sure I'm drinking moar beer than before... wait, maybe that's the problem!

This might be the best tactical step to get you hired (if the hiring manager is into chicks).
I was supposed to acquire another piece of Ti hardware for my lower jaw but instead, I lost another failed root canal right next to it. That means in January, I'll have to acquire a pair of Ti pieces of hardware for the cost of a nice crabon frame. To compensate for this loss, I've ordered a dentist crabon crankset.
Hell yeah!
I always ask for thai hot and a dish of Nom Prik Nom Pla. Usually I have to go there a few times before they take me seriously. One waitress taught me a thai phrase to ask for more heat. Can't remember it well enough to not butcher it.
first collections board meeting done. exhibition install of contemporary mexican photography started. some long-put-off emails sent. others drafted. wife leaves for work trip for the rest of the work week tomorrow. fun dad activites being considered. camping trip this weekend being planned. porters being consumed. ground bee stings from yesterday's hike receding. life bumps along...
