Yesterday I wrote about my current and latest new beginning. While I've had my fair share of injuries over the years, the series of issues I've had over the last 2 years simply won't go away on their own. As I'm getting older (now 40+), my body just isn't responding and healing the way it [...]

Rather blustery day
December 3, 2009 – Posted in: diet runningI'll start out with the bad news, at least for me.

No, not the D word
