Hey All.

Whooping cough is the worst!  It has had me absolutely down for the count!  I can finally make it up the stairs in my house without hacking a lung...

I can't believe it's basically been a month since i've run- much less done anything else related to physical exersion (and I mean anything...).    Hard to be a good wife & mother when I can't breathe...

I know how I work when it comes to recovery from something chest-wise.  I'll have to start in the pool with some laps.  it's my quickest way to building my cardio back up.  So I plan to hit the gym this coming week during the lunch hour & see what happens in the pool.

ugh... anyway - just wanted y'all to know that I'm still out here -- still a runner, at heart at least.

 235.73 BF Miles for last week. Thanks for checking in everybody!

I seldom overstride but I do have a very fast cadence.  I think that this is
why I have struggled with lower ab issues (coupled with my need to
strengthen my "core" muscles). I am a bit surprise at pulling my left groin
muscle, but I do not think it is too serious.

I'll let you know.

Back when I ran with shoes (pre-October 2003), I thought I was going
to have to have a hernia operation on my groin muscle. That, I figure
out, was from overstriding, especially up hills. Since working on my
form with BF running, I run mainly from my butt or "haunches" as I
like to call it. It is more running from my buttocks than from the
front of my pelvis which caused the problem for me. Since I now run
with a low-center of gravity from my rear end which pushes me
forward, I haven't had that problem in few years. Another factor, is
I don't necessarily try to go fast anymore so I don't have to worry
about overstriding to increase my speed.

Both.  My lower ab has been bothering for 2 months or so; I have diligently
been doing exercises to help.  But yesterday my left groin muscle was pulled
early in my run, and combined with the ab issues, 5 miles was all I could
muster.  I will not rush my stretching in the future.

Much better today.

Lower ab or groin? I haven't had a groin pull in a while but I
remember how painful those can be. Thanks Doug.

28 Miles for me last week, and 17 this week.   It was tough to run out
here in So Cal this week because of the smoke lingering around from
the fires.

29.4 miles for me this week.  I had hoped for more, but a lower ab pulled
muscle has been bothering me and I could only get 5 miles in today instead
of my planned 9.

1.48 miles for me last week.

Rick - I broke my two week taper after my first 100K'er on 10/13 and did a barefoot 5.7 miles along the Lake Washington Blvd route part of the Seattle to the 5K Pumpkin Push around the Seward Park Peninsula part of the SM into Lake Washington.  Hope to see Barefoot Todd and Barefoot Chris there again on 11/25..

 

thanks rick.

 

incidentally, do you have any listing or link of all the bible verses about being barefoot?
