How to maintain a running schedule with a baby in the house?

Answered by a doctor

How important is gait analysis?

So I was running at the gym one day last week when I saw a fellow runner who is since retired from where I work. He was an accomplished runner in his day and more of a student of running than I have ever been. We got to talking later and he told me that he noticed I have a slight hitch in my...

What are the effects of long distance running?

Answered by a doctor

I have been running for a couple of years. I like it and plan to keep doing it. I run 3-4 times a week some 3 miles. I have been thinking about running longer distances. I wonder what the effects of a long run on my body are. Should I stick to my old routine or try longer races?

Why am i getting stomach pains?

For about the last month I have been getting stomach pains during my runs. They usually kick in about the 1.5-2 mile mark, and the pace doesn't seem to matter much. It occurs in the center of my body, just above my waste. I cannot think of anything I have changed in my diet or running that could...
