Pinpoint Running Injuries at Runner's World.com
I found this article through <a href="http://marathonleap.blogspot.com/2008/09/case.html">Lifestudent</a>, and I don't like it. I mean, it's good to read and we always need to remember that there are trained professionals who know more about the human body than we do, but I don't like it because I have been having some aches and pains and I don't want to rest right now, three weeks from my marathon. I have been cutting back in little ways to give my body the recovery time I think it needs, so I hope that's enough!

shinsplints pain lessens as you warm up, while stress-fracture pain continues through the end of a run

f it's ITB syndrome, then running downhill, lengthening your stride, and keeping your knee in a bent position for extended periods will exacerbate your symptoms. Stretching to loosen the band can help resolve the problem.

Half-Fast: And to Think That I Saw It on My Long Run
Vanilla is one of my favorite running bloggers, and this post is a great reason why! He's funny and imaginative. I've "written" blog posts during runs before, but nothing as epic as this Dr. Seuss tribute. Take the time to read the whole thing. You'll be glad you did!

This is a great post! Even if you're not a runner, this list will make you laugh. (Is that Jacob??)
Feet Meet Street: Spooning: A Form of Celebration
Well, I guess it's that time in the training when I need to start thinking about how I will celebrate once I cross the finish line. Thanks to this article by Nitmos, I now know I need to start deciding.
But that's now why this article is on my links for the week. It's because of this quote:<blockquote>But when it’s over, it’s party time!
Or, as much “partying” you can muster with shredded calves, throbbing hamstrings, an unexplainable foul odor vaguely reminiscent of rotted skunk disemboweled by a rabid, ill-tempered wolverine with stage 2 halitosis, and enough body salt oozing from your pores to keep a meadow of deer happy for weeks.</blockquote>So that's what Team Linden will have to look forward to after I'm done? Please, don't anyone tell them, or I might not have a cheerleading squad anymore!
Pieces of Me: Atonement
Funny! Thanks to Kevin who mentioned this Runner's prayer in his latest <a href="http://5ksandcabernets.blogspot.com/2008/08/60-years-of-beans-and-cornbread.html">blog post</a>. I have needed this prayer in the last few months. It's a great reminder of the good and bad of running.

Races are like mirrors. You look better in some and worse in others, but it's always a reflection of you. Sometimes, though, you can blame the lighting.

The strategy is unusual in that it doesn't involve simply walking when you are tired. Walk-break runners force themselves to stop even at the beginning of a run when they are fresh."
