Yo run gang,

I love my daily run and everything it does for me. I also love the experience of giving it my all on race day and being totally spent a race day requiring a taper before, then recovery days after, cutting into the joy of my daily run . A dilemma. Not a big deal when it comes to shorter events but when running a marathon, its brutal. Im reminded of this today as I still continue to nurse muscle soreness from the weekends marathon, rather than hitting the trail for 8 miles or so on this glorious day, darn. A strange thought, I love running too much to race too often.

For those of you running from Dexter to Ann Arbor this weekend, I wish you well! A great event, a great tradition. Stop by Running Fit (On the corner of 4th and Liberty, one block east of Main) after your race for our annual race weekend sale. Get a free race picture if you find yourself! We take about 2,000 random pictures and have the prints up around 1PM race day.

Enjoy every healthy day,
Randy Step
