RE: WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY (PICS)
Got legally married back in January, but just now exchanged rings with family and friends. Our friends made a really cool ceremony where they asked guests to write hopes and wishes on paper, which then were burned with a zippo that Chicken delivered, and then we covered our ring fingers in the ashes before the rings went on. We did the party at my wife's mom's house in the countryside, ate traditional ham cooked in hay and bread, I sang the old American folk song 'Been all around this world' to kick off the dance party under stretch tents with a view of the Valley de la Cère with two great DJ's, and couldn't help but notice all the smiles. Pretty grateful now.

Satisfy Running
Built up a small collection of this brand over the last year since I like to run. Curious to see if others are into it?

RE: Runners
New shoes. Now I have a race shoe for trail ultras (orange hokas), a slow trail shoe for training (navy), and then a slow road shoe (black), and a tempo road shoe (white).

RE: Random questions to which you seek an answer
I think it is cool to have size change, because preferences for tighter and looser cuts change with time, and Iron Heart clothes last longer than fit trends, so it is good to have options.

RE: Runners
@goosehd different brand. Didn’t seek out the lower drop, just went off immediate comfort of the upper.
What read about recovering from a strain like mine is to strengthen the strained muscle through cross training and then once ready to run go back to the old shoe and slowly transition to the new shoe. So I’ve been biking and lifting weights with an emphasis on single leg exercises. Back running now working through the strain. Rest is ok for a bit but an injury like mine is partly about weakness, so to prevent that injury long term I have to strengthen the muscle, and there’s no harm in starting that quite soon after injury. Rest and stretching are currently seen as slightly overrated in the healing process. Strength training and cross training are the best bets. It’s surprising because it goes against received wisdom, but makes sense to me when I think about it that to heal the injury I have to activate the area, not ignore it.
