MRI Scans And Runners Injury Diagnosis
Yesterday was MRI day for me. I was booked in for a scan on an annoying and persistent lump in my lower leg. Since this is the next day now, and I often think of important things to after they have stopped being important, I decided to do a brief net search to see what an MRI is all about.

A St. Patrick's Day Toast to Irish Runners Marcus O'Sullivan and Eamonn Coghlan
A week before St. Patrick's Day I bought a pair of Saucony Kilkinney cross-country racing flats. They are a screaming Irish green and stick out like neon lights. It reminded me of the Sports Illustrated magazine cover I have on my office wall recording the moment from 1994 when Eamonn Coghlan broke the tape at the finish line to become the first man over the age of 40 to run a sub-four-minute mile. Any day is a good day to raise a glass of Jameson Irish whiskey to the likes of Marcus O'Sullivan and Eamonn Coghlan, but an even better day when it is St. Patrick's Day.

Why a Positive Goal Works
It is practically impossible for us to think of a negative concept without referring to the positive side first. Just try it. Close your eyes and imagine a plate without a hamburger on it.

To Run or Walk
A choice a race, a time and a place, It is up to you to keep up the pace. In the middle of the marathon you must decide if you are going to go the distance or step aside. Once you commit there is no turning back, it a long road ahead that you must attack. The timing and training all comes to a point of truth, it is all up to you, your strength and youth. Mile after mile your feet pound the ground, you wonder if in the end you will still be around. I wanted to quit so bad they often say, they battle their will for it is the course they must stay. Once completed they stop and say while I did it, of course in the next breath they talk about the pain, yes they admit. 26 miles 385 yards, you run for your life this is not a game of cards. A marathon is extremely an long way, it is a lot of work to make it through no matter what they say.
