    Congratulations! I did a super slow 14 miles on Saturday. My hamstring tendonitis is still bothering me some, but it's slowly getting better. I know it would get better if I just totally rested it. Oh well! A little under two weeks until River of No Return!

      Brandine: Now Cletus, if I catch you with pig lipstick on your collar one more time you ain't gonna be allowed to sleep in the barn no more!

        That No Return part scares me a little...

        Good luck, Jenny!!!

          @nutmeg What's that elaborate lacing scheme you've got going on there?

            Running, Anyone...?

            Cruiser, I’m trying out Switzerland running shoes brand called ON.
            Mine’s Cloudflyer and so far I like them.
            They are extremely light (especially upper feels non existing) and the bottom support is a little firmer than I expected but we’ll see how it goes.

              Not exactly sure what Nutmeg is doing, but I've seen this before: https://runrepeat.com/top-10-running...ing-techniques

                The shoes came with the lace scheme, so I have no idea what it’s for.
                But my upper feet barely felt any pressure.

                  A pair of la sportiva trail shoes that I bought last year came with a lacing diagram because the top part is so fiddly. But hey, they're European. So anything goes...

                          Consider yourselves fortunate. It's been 1 year 2 weeks since my final run. I miss the hell out of it. It's the quick simple way to stay in aerobic shape: put on shoes, get your ass out the door, shuffle, jog, trot or run. It's all good.

                              It’ll only get easier until you start running 6 plus miles.
                              Keep doing what you’re doing and eventually you’ll find the joy of running.
                              Make sure you have a good pair of running shoes.
                              Do everything you can to prevent injuries.
                              It’ll eventually happen, but by trying, you can minimize them.

                                Dude? I remember some silly talk of cutting it down, but totally? For good? Cold turkey? Seriously??
