Yesterday I learned something interesting. Tomorrow, April 5th, the following time sequence will occur:

01:02:03:04:05:06

at two minutes and three seconds after one o'clock am on the fifth day of the fourth month in the year, 2006.

I have been knocked down with a bad cold for the past few weeks which has slowed down my running.

My friend Dororthea told me about Cold fx. Her boyfriend is taking it on his climb to Everest (they are also a sponsor). Can I tell you how wonderful this is? I have never been so impressed -especially by a natural medicine.

My cold was gone in a day and a half. I recommended it to my friend Stacey and she said it was taking the aches away in no time.

Cold fx is used by 27 NHL teams, endorsed by Don Cherry, and the 2005 Everst expedition.

Last year my friend, Stacey and I took a Yoga for Runners course at Downward Dog Yoga Studio. The course was excellent - especially for lengthening the hamstrings which get tight when running.

I found this site which illustrates some great yoga stretches for runners, which you might wish to try out:

An interesting, albeit, odd fact from the people at Nike.

Apparently each foot sweats 2 cups of water during a marathon.

Have yet to run a full marathon so I am not sure if it is true. Odd though.
