Race day is less than 2 weeks away. It is more important now, than ever, to eat right, sleep right & stay away from sick people. If you are sick & around me, please don’t be offended if I run the other way. Eating right should be a no-brainer, but that isn’t always the [...] Last spring I bought some CW-X compression capri pants. At the time I was having some IT band & hip flexor issues and I figured they couldn’t hurt. The idea of behind compression pants for running is as follows: Extensive studies show that wearing CW-X tights results in 26% less energy expenditure than [...] Last week I shared a post on my training for my upcoming half marathons.

When I first started running, I was told, heard & read that I should buy “running” socks. I thought I already had them, [...] I just realized that while I updated my Daily Mile site with a recap of the Cap City Half Marathon, I hadn’t gotten around to updating you all here. How silly of me! I had scheduled posts to go up for the end of last week and the weekend so that I didn’t have to [...] |
