Final run of August and it went pretty well. Things felt a little clunky but the injuries felt much improved. Will continue to be a little cautious the rest of this week but time is running out so need to find a good balance. My philosophy has always been that it is better to get to the starting line a little undertrained and healthy than perfectly trained and injured. Did 20 minutes of yoga after the run.

Jeff, so glad to see a positive report. I totally agree with your philosophy there about being well trained and injured. That right balance can be tough to find.

Glad to hear things are improving. Your philosophy is RIGHT ON!!! Hope you toe the line healthy.
