Be immune to others opionions.What others say and
do is a projection of their
own reality, their own dream.
When you are immune to
the opinions and the actions of
others, you won't be
the victim of
needless suffering.
I hope you all have a beautiful day!

Hey there Cat. Glad to hear that you are feeling fully recovered :-)
I have a raw food question...I have been trying to find what percent of green leafy veggies is average for a raw foodist. Mainly it seems that the high concentration is of fruit over 50 and greens are in the teens. Being an elite athlete...do you juice or blend a higher percent of greens or take them in a powder form of any kind?
Seems like a crazy question, but I just can't find a solid answer in my research. Thanks! Enjoy the California sun! ~j
Hey Geoff-
knock on wood I've never been side line due to a running related injury.
I'm just lucky so far.
If I were you I would take a few more day off and try and run than. If it feels ok. Don't run more than 5 miles per day for a few days.
Just rest up so you can run the hundred.
It doesn't sound like a stress fracture. From what I hear those are very painful.
Do self massage and run Arnica gel on it.
Good luck and just rest up.

Hey SR thanks!

Ahh..Your story is so cute :)

He is a cool doggy! Congratulations on your finish at Rocky Raccoon, I heard it was a tuff day out there, way to push onward and finish strong! That’s unfortunate about Xy but like you said she made a wise decision especially with the Grand Slam down the road. Will you be running VT100 this year or will you be on your PCT adventure? I hope to finally catch-up with Xy at VT100. Take care..
Just wanted say, "you rock"! I read your blog for positive motivation! I read your quotes and the whole time think, "That's right! Yeh! I don't have to absorb all the negative crap!" And running is such a great way to shed negative energy-keep up the positive thinking, it's contagious!

Geoff, I Jeff. I'm running again after a stress fracture last November. Broke clean in two. Swelling went down in 2-3 days because I stayed off it, iced it, and took ibuprofen. 1st xrays showed nothing.
DON'T TRUST your doctor!!! I had a great podiatrist who told me the 1st xray often doesn't show anything. It wasn't until two months later that unmistakeable signs of healing showed on xray.
Without a cast, wear hiking boots, ice-climbing boots, bicycle shoes, etc. Anything that's real stiff. If you don't have anything like that, maybe cut some thin plywood shoe inserts. You have to stablize.
Sorry if I hijacked your comments, Catra. I feel Geoff's pain.
You inspire me, but I have to remind myself that you built up to your current level and I have to pay my dues.
Congrats on Rocky Raccoon and with Rocky the Dog.
Great picture! What a cutie pie of a dog!
Hi Catra - I'm Mel in the UK. I have just discovered your fabulous blog and read through the entire archives last night - WOW, what a lady. You are a total inspiration to me - I'm single, 37 with kids but wondering where my life may be going lately - reading your blog has given me a kick up the backside to jump start my life again - thanks. I was left feeling on a total high after reading it and looking at your fab pics. Your 42???????? NEVER, I thought you were in your early twenties until I read your birthday post. You GO GIRL!! I shall be an avid reader now, Mel
Catra: "be immune to other's opinion" is a great way to look at things. So often this world is just flat out MEAN! You, on the other hand, show how to live "just being ME." Rock on!
Hey Ryan thanks!
I won't be at Vermont. I will be on the PCT starting May 23rd-August ?
