Disclaimers, caveats etc

Ok, I'll make this post short. I'm not a medical doctor, coach, trained physical therapist, kinesiologist, etc.
In another lifetime I did teach anatomy labs to students who became the above, but that was several decades ago (and I was running then, too).

The posts are intended to share some of my positive and negative experiences with training, rehabilitation, running equipment and psychology. My experiences may be relevant to you or not. Pretend we start talking at a running path and start swapping advice and stories. That's it.

I've discovered there are so many permutations and combinations of stuff being applied to runners, who are each unique, that anyone who claims to have THE answer for you, may be stretching their expertise just a bit.

I enjoyed learning from the coaches and experienced runners I met through Team in Training and elsewhere. Lots of good ideas, many of which I tried, but I also found I explored territory they hadn't.

The prospect that really cool solutions to the problems created by aging and running are drifting around out there awaiting discovery is one of the things that keeps me running.
