Great rain run, Michael! I really don't mind running in the rain much either, just not on a marathon. :-) PS. It has been a super year for you!!

Nice, cautious work today Michael. I know some physio-therapists believe that all running injuries are traceable to the soleus. I regularly use this Trigger Point message kit on my soleus and it seems to help.
