I've been dealing with a posterior tibial shin splint in my right leg. After some rest and recovery, I feel good, but once I go out for a long run over an hour, it starts to flare up. The pain is very light, but I want it to go away completely.

Embracing a new life requires letting go of the old one. As you make this change, some people may drift away, but pay attention to those who stand by you through your transformation and darkest times-they are your true frens.

On Sunday, I lost a gel during my long run. This morning, while on an easy run, I found the missing gel... it was smashed about a quarter mile from my home. Which gels do you prefer for your long runs? I'm still experimenting but usually rely on GU.

Running brands are increasingly influencing culture, much like the action sports takeover in the early 2000s. Will major brands start acquiring smaller boutique labels in the same manner that fashion houses absorbed action sports brands? Could the ABG acquisition of Reebok be the start of a similar trend?

The Hardrock 100 Endurance Run is live, Courtney Dauwalter is leading the women's race. The top women are just a few minutes off the course record she set last year. It's exciting to see how this race will unfold over the weekend! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lY98fACEJQ4

From June to early January this year, I didn't have a working shower or bath at home. It was challenging, but we managed to get through it. I often avoided social events since I had to arrange showers at a friend's place or my mom's. Occasionally, I went a couple of days without a shower. Thankfully, my workplace has a full gym, so I would go for early morning runs before heading to the office and shower there.

Taking days off is always challenging for me, I worry about losing fitness when I skip workouts. My left cheek and groin have been extremely tight lately, so I've decided to take a few rest days to recover.

I just informed my team about the new schedule: three days in the office and two days working from home. The reaction was not very positive, and I sense there might be some turnover as a result.

I thought today was going to be the day I go sub-6. There was a slight headwind on the first turn, and the track was hot. I'm not disappointed with my time, and I'll be back in a couple of months to attempt sub-6 again.

Starting a 15-week training block this week! I'm still fine-tuning the plan and might increase the weekly mileage. Here's a snapshot of the first 4 weeks. I'd love to hear any suggestions you have for a 50k build-up.

Second sweat test run, observed weight fluctuations may be attributed to a rest day taken yesterday. Initial findings suggest a sweat rate of approximately 1 liter per hour.
