Summer is coming! File Your Feet

It's sandal season! Personally, I have never been a sandal wearer. I am more of a sneaker girl. And since I have been wearing orthotics in all my shoes and running shoes for years, they don't lend themselves to many of the cute sandal styles. That ...

April Showers: Be Prepared

I just responded to a question from a runner concerned about the rainy race day forecast for an upcoming half marathon. Spring weather can be variable, so for spring races, it's good to be as prepared as possible. I'll reiterate my favorite rainy race ...

Inclined to Cross Train? Try a 12-15% Treadmill Walk

I read an interesting item on Active.com about cross training for runners in which Matt Fitzgerald recommends walking on a treadmill with a 12-15% incline as a cross training option and alternative to running. I hadn't thought about changing the ...

Mild Winter Weather: Bonus for Newbies

Beginning runners, I hope you're enjoying a mild winter. You are lucky! Even devout, experienced runners have a harder time getting motivated when the wind chill is in the teens and there are insidious ice patches on our favorite roads and paths. But ...

Shorter Days, Shorter Distances

In the middle of winter, when it's dark and cold, don't underesticate the value of a shorter distance run. I usually think that something is better than nothing (unless, of course, the roads are icy, in which case it is time for a day off or a trip to ...
