Words are inadequate

My sister and I were just talking about plateaus this morning (she has recently lost over 80 pounds and had been on a plateau for about three months). Her last few pounds didn't come off until she stopped exercising so much (she'd been training seven days a week). It turned out that that variant in the routine was what had to happen for her body to release the three pounds it just let go. Weird but there it is.

That calf stretch is one of the best. Too few of us do it and many should regardless of whether or not we run.

As for running in general, much as I enjoy doing it in the woods, I've had to stop. I ran, tripped over a root and took a bit of a nasty fall about a month ago and now I'm not so interested in doing it again. And, the sad thing is that I can't seem to run on asphalt or cement. I hurt inside of 100 feet (yet running in the woods on the soft soil and softer pine needles feels just fine). So, I've been thinking of going to an actual track to see if that might work for me.

Have a fabulous time at Origins. I'll miss everyone.
