Check out the older blog postings!

If it's been a while - check out the old postings!

Some even have information about how you can be semi-altruistic and donate to my favorite cause in the hopes that children with IBD or Crohn's can get treatment and research done on the disease!

The window for donations is closing so, please do what you can to give to this worthy cause and prevent me from making the biggest donation of my LIFE in order to reach the 3k requirement :P

Doctor Doctor

Got to see the doctor finally regarding my wonderfully mysterious knee pain.

He diagnosed me quickly as having a "pronation whip" as my foot left the ground. This means that, from the knee down on my right leg, when my foot leaves the ground my lower leg whips around like a propeller.

He prescribed a running coach for the longer-term but, in the short-term he recommended a full-length insole that has some cushioning and arch support which somehow keeps my leg from whipping so much.

So far so good. I did my first 20 miler last weekend and, aside from back pain due to all the hills encountered, knees felt great!
