Thanks for the emails over the weekend; my neck is doing much better tonight than it was a couple days ago. On Friday afternoon, I tweaked or pulled something when I began my run that led to my spending the rest of the afternoon on the couching and requiring assistance to get up. [...]

Today reminds me a lot of my birthday a couple of years ago, when I pulled a muscle in my neck and had to cut back on my training for a few weeks.

It was not too long ago that Tyson Gay ran the fastest 100 meters that any human has ever done. He had the assistance of a good tailwind, which will keep him out of the record books, but that is still impressive none the less.
Even so, he is stronger in the 200 meter distance [...]

July 6th, 2008 — , Injuries, rowing from admin @ Fit36.com
Friday afternoon, I decided to head upstairs for a nice Independence Day row. I did my usual 5 minute warmup (light rowing, roughly 1 km) and then got off the erg to stretch.

This Week Last Year: Running Injuries and Dying Sports
December 1st, 2007 — Injuries, Last Year, running, swimming, weight lifting from Blaine Moore @ Run to Win
