October update

I have not updated the blog in a long time, as I spend August/September/October concentrating more on cycling than running. This was because I decided to go on a cycling vacation to mark my 50th birthday after seeing this article in the Sunday NY Times.

The trip was great: the cycling was spectacular, and my knee seemed fine. As I type, my quads are moderately sore, so I think I will limit my running to a short jog later.

I am planning to run the Boston Volvo 5K race on Thanksgiving, although I may also try to find another 5k to try in the next couple of weeks.
