1. This is good news – Put Those Shoes On: Running Won’t Kill Your Knees by Patti Neighmond – here are some excerpts from the article:

Yes, it’s true: Jogging, long thought to hurt knees with all that pounding and rattling around, may actually be beneficial for the complex and critical joint.

We know from many long-term studies that running doesn’t appear to cause much damage to the knees.

We wanted to answer the important question of whether, if you continued to run into your 50s and 60s and even 70s, you also ran the risk of damaging the knees,” she says. The answer, she says: absolutely not.

So, the message for joggers … who hope to be jogging all their lives, is a hearty two thumbs up.

2. Spring is NOT here yet.  It is still cold, windy and even snow predicted for Friday.

When can I put away the winter running clothes??

Happy Running!
