Spring is coming as you can see brook opening up, down-back is snow, mud and ice-covered, so if you go down there you will get muddy, but still have to watch your step. Best of all, I ran a long run in shorts and no jacket and felt comfortable! This was first week that I …

AVR – Week in Review 3-4-12
This has been a pretty good week, in spite of the snow storm this week. I got my replacement shoes from New Balance and ran further than I have in a long time in one week. The little muscle strains are starting to heal (just not as fast as I want) and I found a …

Running Shoes – Time to Rewind and Start Over
Sometimes you just have to say I was wrong and start over. That is basically what I am doing with my running shoe choices over the past couple of weeks. The ones that I have purchased have not performed as I expected and instead of attempting to make do, I have decided to return them …
