Without working out.\u00a0 But another week being sick.\u00a0 I actually started feeling worse this week, developing a cough mid-week that still has me down.\u00a0 After a few late nights and stressful days at work my body was run down and\u00a0 enjoyed taking a sick day on Friday.\u00a0 Hopefully I’ll start feeling better soon.\u00a0 It has been really frustrating because the weather has been so nice and perfect for running but I’ve been stuck inside healing up my foot and my sinus\/cough issues.<\/p>\n
On the foot front, things are feeling pretty good.\u00a0 I bought a pair of neutral shoes to test out my experiment of switching running shoes.\u00a0 So far, in the walking around category, my foot has enjoyed a more neutral approach.\u00a0 We’ll see.\u00a0 Maybe I’ll go to a store and do a treadmill test before I start running again.<\/p>\n
Past Highlights<\/strong><\/p>\n In my ongoing look at other blogs I talked about Steve Runner’s blog<\/a>. It is almost all just show notes.\u00a0 In 2007, I ran the DINO Series – Fort Harrison<\/a> race.\u00a0 I miss running the DINO races and their excellent race director Brian.\u00a0 I also did an in-depth review of the three training cylces from 2007, the first talks<\/a> about my slow comeback from injury.<\/p>\n Last year I did an in-depth review of Running – the Sacred Art<\/em> reviewing the book chapter by chapter.\u00a0 The first in the eight part series was Foundations of a Spiritual Runner<\/a>.\u00a0 You will probably want to skip this Foto Friday<\/a> picture of Nathan without his shirt on, eating a hot dog.\u00a0 By the way, Nathan moved, got married, and forgot how to update his blog<\/a>, or something like that! But then maybe a 2:51 marathoner has other things to worry about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Without working out.\u00a0 But another week being sick.\u00a0 I actually started feeling worse this week, developing a cough mid-week that still has me down.\u00a0 After a few late nights and stressful days at work my body was run down and\u00a0 enjoyed taking a sick day on Friday.\u00a0 Hopefully I’ll start feeling better soon.\u00a0 It has […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1705","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-my-running"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4iaAv-rv","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":1472,"url":"https:\/\/www.teamcrossworld.com\/running\/2009\/tcm-training-week-6\/","url_meta":{"origin":1705,"position":0},"title":"TCM Training Week 6","author":"crossn81","date":"July 13, 2009","format":false,"excerpt":"Been running. \u00a0Got sick.
