Hammerhead toes
For the past few months ..I have been having issues with my feet . Hmmmm.I guess, don't we all on this site at one time or another. This is my current issue..I have hammerhead toes that have gotten worse in the past few months. My foot doc said it is for cosmetic purposes that people have surgery...but mine are starting to interfere with my running. When I ran my last marathon, I taped my toes down. It seemed to work ...for the time being.
Anyone else have these ? My doctor said it is a combinat… Continue

- This is much better than Facebook because it is focused. You certainly have the Marathon thing going. It nice to see that you are leaving about seven weeks between Marathons, otherwise your run the risk of overdoing it. Ha. On a serious matter, I an interested in what kind of mileage and pace you have been using in your prep. I followed Higdon's Inter II for Disney, but don't think it gave me the endurance to finish strong.
Glad you liked the SOM. We all sat around in the hotel room the night before Cleveland and watched it on a lap-top. It is very motivating. And it puts the effort in some kind of context. I met Lori O'Connor (she was the one who ws adopted) at the Expo before Chicago and had a pretty long chat with her. She was very nice and 'real' just like in the movie. Great movie.

- Slacker??? I just watched the little google map clip on the OBX Marathon. I can't imaging BQing on that course. It looks like fun, but OMG. The Just Finish crowd does have some intimidating bios. I am sure you went through the experience at Disney of saying 'I am only doing the marathon' to all the goofy people running around. I have wanted all of my life to be able to use 'only' and 'marathon' in the same sentence. But it almost seemed like making an excuse. In a good way though. So what's your next one?

- Well I think you had a good time. Beat me by almost 15 minutes. I think it was an interesting race experience. I had never had to crush the water cups to break the ice before. And I'm from Michigan. Congrats on your Boston Qualifying. That is a tremendous accomplishment. Were you able to enter for next year? I am working toward a 4 hour next year or 2011 in order to qualify for 2012. My current req of 3:45 just isn't in the cards. Welcome to JustFinish. A lot of great people here and way more advice than you will ever want.
