Dirty Girl Gaiters
Anyone can wear black gaiters! But a dirty girl’s gotta do what a dirty girl’s gotta do! Accessorize! Dirty Girl Gaiters keep the debris out of your shoes with ultralight style and sass. And you’ll have something fun to look at while you hang your sorry head and shuffle your tired feet. This soft, comfortable four-way stretch Spandex-y unisexy gaiter weighs less than two ounces. It hooks under the front shoelace and secures to the back of the shoe with a self-adhesive Velcro strip. They are dirt-cheap for $23 per pair. [read more]

Food for Fuel - Miso Noodle Soup

These days, miso is not as unfamiliar to most Americans as it was even a decade ago. With the increased popularity of sushi bars and authentic Japanese and Chinese eateries around the country, miso soup is more than recognizable to most patrons. While the fermented soybean paste is somewhat high in sodium, and some of its health claims have been recently exaggerated and contradicted, studies have shown that miso can aid digestion, strengthen the immune system and even lower cholesterol.

Meeting The Third Man
I have a secret. On my first 30 mile run, in the sweltering heat of White House, TN, I had an encounter with the “Third Man”. It not only changed my view of training and racing, but it changed my life bringing me peace, joy and a love of training that cannot be quelled by my aging body. It drives me to push my [read more]
Orthotics For Runners

When I started practicing PT ten years ago, every runner wanted orthotics to either treat or prevent injury. I would measure and cast at least one patient a week. Orthotics were considered the cure-all for running injuries. Jump forward to today and fewer runners are asking for orthotics despite increased evidence supporting their use and the significant increase in the total number of runners.
Can they help you? On a personal level, I am a distance runner and have worn custom orthotics for nine of 20 years of running. While an individualized evaluation will best determine if a custom or pre-fabricated orthotic can help you, I hope the following guides
