I’d have to give blessing with you on this. Which is not something I typically do! I love reading a post that will make people think. Also, thanks for allowing me to comment!

I used to be able to run – hey, I was actually in the “Alice Springs Running And Walking Club” (yes, that’s Alice Springs in Central Australia!). But what happened after about 4 months? I got really bad “Shin Splints” and was out of the game for good. Up until this day, whenever I run for more than 5 minutes, the shin splints comes back, and I have to stop. Even just brisk walking over time will make me feel it. But you know what? I think if you keep at it, in the best way you can, if you don’t give up, then you are a superhero, too!
For me it’s to keep going to the gym, and to keep getting on the treadmill for as long as I can without risking any more of my health.

Have just discovered your site and, being a beginning runner, was touched to learn you used to be 100 lbs. heavier and thought when watching runners, as I do now, ‘wow’. For some reason, that gave me the impetus to dig deeper and really believe I can do this.

Just thought I’d share that. Have bookmarked you and will check back often.

Beautiful pixs !!! Like you, I was listening to Steve Runner as well. Glad you included the hill workout. It looks like a terrific spot to run up to. .-= Ted´s last blog ..Plenty of Goodies !!! =-.

Lovely scenery! I actually saw a photo of One Tree Hill on a calendar recently and I felt so smug knowing what and where it was.

wow, looks like a great place to run! Anything that has nice scenery generally tends to make the runs a bit easier…

Yeah, my runs have been a bit ‘flat’ lately! Fortunately you don’t have to look far for hills in Auckland.

Good to see you including a hill run in this weeks runs. I was just wondering the other day how many hills you run as many of your runs seem to be along the waterfront ( and why wouldn't you i guess). .-= Bruce´s last blog ..2009 Training log =-.

I think you should go for Flash! Get the tights and the running thing all rolled into one.

Good stuff. Just make sure you wear the undies over the tights like superman does

Cornwall park is one of my favourite places to run as well. There are roosters too – sometimes they cheer, or rather crow, when you run past. Have you noticed the signs warning of the cows. I think a couple of years ago a jogger was attacked by a cow who had recently given birth and went into protection mode.
