Done. Miles of training through heat, humidity, then rain, and finally snow. All with visions of the "Margaritaville" ahead. Spending January in southern Florida was attractive enough, but 13.1 miles in Key West a vision. The Key West Half Marathon did not disappoint. Read more about this dream race.

As predicted, the receipt of my new Avail TENS unit was timed perfectly. Allow me to share my Runners' Guide to TENS Therapy. Omron sponsored this post. I received compensation and an Omron Avail wireless TENS device for the … [Read more...]
