Day 26: I updated the title of my blog site, it's namesake taken from a joke years ago.
Yesterday, I invited my brothers, Evan and Lenny to next year's Akron Roadrunner marathon. I didn't know it, but my sister in law Sondra has been running! Would be great to get a team of us together for a relay or run a half marathon together.
I've been experimenting with various health drinks, and would like to see if others have had any good effects from using them. I've used Myoplex and Muscle Milk. your comments are welcome!
Also, I've found on off days, it is difficult to stay motivated, so I am always looking for things to keep me geared up for the next run. It could be a song, mapping a run on Map My Run or even updating this blog site. My brother in law, Steve, sent a 13.1 car magnet, which has been a helpful motivator.
Any thoughts on racing shoes vs. running shoes? I use a Mizuno running shoe, which is very comfortable and has plenty of cushion.
THe main concern with health drinks is to not get overloaded with sugars or poor forms of protein. Running vs. racing shoes... endless subject to ponder. The racing flats are generally for lighter weight people with efficent strides. It takes a while to become efficent while running. The biggest motivator is that you are a bad mofo for being out there at 5:00am!
