Are you going to continue your run/walk gatherings? I’m looking for running partners during the work week so would be interested in perhaps mornings, late afternoon or evening runs…I work from home so pretty flexible with time.

Comment on Alameda Runners Learns About Toesocks from Injinji by StRunner10

I’ve worn minimalist running shoes for a few year now. I’ve seen the Injinji socks but never gave them a try until last summer. I wear both the VFF’s and Merrell Barefoot’s. I spoke to a runner that was wearing the socks; she recommended them. Also, that day was a very humid day — hot sweaty run. Minimalist running shoes call for not wearing socks; therefore, sometimes the shoes really feel sweaty and the feeling of hot spots can be a concern. Many miles of running in VFF’s for example, makes them smelly. I am now wearing the Injinji socks. They feel great and still retain most of the road/trail feel; be without the sweaty feeling on those humid days.

@ Claudine – After my troubles this year, I should be back again next year to settle my score with the demons from this year.

@ Kathy – Here is the plan I used for CIM. It is a 3 month plan starting from the half marathon. I assume you can already run 13 miles so this should be good for you. http://www.alamedated.com/alamedarunners/cim2010.html It is located on the links on the right side of the page. I have a 4 month plan someplace that I will dig up and post.

Hi Ted!
Do you have a training program for a full marathon? I saw you had one for a half. Maybe I will do one in the late spring or early summer 2012. I think I have a pretty good base to start from.

Thanks!
