Reader Question: How To Avoid Re-Injuring Your Knee

By on Tuesday, June 21st, 2011 | No Comments

A few weeks ago, I was invited to run Maine’s 100 Mile Wilderness, a stretch of the Appalachian Trail where there are no towns and only a few road crossings. The fastest known time for this stretch of the trail is about 39.5 hours, so a bunch of the Trail Monsters and their friends decided [...]

It was an absolutely beautiful day, and by beautiful I mean in the traditional sunny sense and not in the rainy way that it was beautiful last year.
