Should You Stretch Before A Run? (Part 2)

By on Wednesday, April 14th, 2010 | 1 Comment

Yesterday, I shared some simple stretches that you can do before a run.

Why Should You Run a Small Marathon?

By on Friday, April 9th, 2010 | No Comments

A week from tomorrow I am running the Exeter Marathon, and in an email that Mike Tammaro (the race director) sent me this afternoon he told a story about why running a small marathon is better for him than running a larger race. I can certainly relate to his take so I got permission from [...]
