Howdy all. The road back from the calf strain continued last night. 5 miles and it felt pretty good. Still doing good today so that's a good sign.
Pierogies are wonderful things. Love 'em. Pasties are good too, but they give me the winds something fierce. Must be all that rutabaga. We have a local pastie place that makes a pretty awesome chicken pastie. One of them is enough for two people to share or to get dinner and lunch the next day for one person.
QOTD - I don't eat much before a run. When I have eaten before a run it usually makes an emergency exit. I like to run on empty.
Run! Just Run!

3.3 on the sidewalks around my office. They were covered in about 1" of new snow and I noticed something interesting. When I run, my feet fall right in line. Is this true for everyone?
QOTD: I can have issues with sometimes, so I tend to stick to tried-and-true items like a peanut butter bagel.

I don't know about everyone, but with me, it is true. I noticed it just recently, too, when running in the snow. One straight line, looks funny.
Run for fun.

Not me. I am a little duck footed and my feet in addition to being angled are also not one behind the other when I run.

Update, no brick, but a nice mostly muddy 11 miles (1200 feet up and down). It was quite flat at the end (horse path going to the school), so the pace picked up a lot (just under 7:00 pace for the last two miles):

Haven't run for 3 days now. Been taking an NSAID (like a strong Advil). Feeling great !!!! I will do a few mile tomorrow but then have to fly off to London for the week. I'll be back just in time to pace at RR100.
