Setbacks
Just when everything seemed, if you will excuse the term, hunky-dory, with the mileage getting into the mid-forties, bam! I strained my foot through some very indiscreet bounding exercises without warming up. As a result, I ran a grand total of 10 miles last week, setting my training back about 10 days. To add insult to injury, my computer's hard disk is beginning to fail as well, prompting frantic backup and reinstallation efforts that have kept me busy for the past few days. It looks like I'm going to have to replace the drive, but thanks to Knoppix, I've been able to stay online throughout this mess. This time, I'm getting rid of Windows once and for all - gotta love Debian GNU/Linux running KDE! And I should be back running this week.

Guess the strain should heal in a few days...all the best with the training..any marys coming up?
Good thoughts to your strain to help it heal.
I was just realizing that this weekend represents one year since we got together in NJ for your one east coast race. Be well and heal fast.
Thanks, everyone. I'm all healed up now and logged 29 miles this past week, which was about as much as I expected to do. Scooter, yes, I do remember it was the 4th of July - are you doing that race this time?
Yes, but I haven't been racing well and am struggling with the heat, so it'll be an easy one.
