After getting my first "dnf" (two weeks earlier at the summer fest 15k run), in almost 175 races in my 7 year running history, I went into survival mode at the Rochester Marathon. They are not getting any easier and seems to start compounding my body and breaking down more easily.
But I didn't see any Pink elephants, which was present at the 2007 Chicago marathon. It was just as hot, if not more. Had to walk the tail end in Chicago.
The calf muscles are the most utilized muscle and is engaged 100 percent of the time when walking. The owner of Fleet Feet introduced me to compression socks that proved worthy for the Rochester Marathon!
