“The body does not want you to do this. As you run, it tells you to stop but the mind must be strong. You always go too far for your body. You must handle the pain with strategy…It is not age; it is not diet. It is the will to succeed.” – Jacqueline Gareau, 1980 Boston Marathon champ

Congratulations to all who finished the Honolulu Marathon yesterday! What a great accomplishment. I know you are making all kinds of noises as your body is wrecked with pain as you get up out of your chair. I have a solution. Workout! Yes, I know your body is saying “yeah right, if only I could walk” but Active Rest(what a oxymoron) is the best way to speed up recovery. I have the perfect workout for you if you show up at the room today. Remember, strong and fast is not the goal, but circulation and warming the body(through movement) will help. Oh yeah and no running, I promise. We did a segment on KITV morning news today to try and encourage this very thing.
