During the 100 mile relay race I participated in (Aug 15th), my left foot reset itself after years of being clubbed. Since that happened the left side of my body has been able to move with greater flexibility and dexterity. Unfortunately that means more growing pains for me. A whole new world of possibilities is opening up before my eyes. As the left grows stronger and more flexible, the right is able to relax more. The ultimate goal that I have been striving for, symmetry, is close and getting closer daily. I can only hope that most of the growing pains are over by Sept 18th during the Reach the Beach Relay and later during the Maine Marathon. When symmetry is attained I will finally be able to start training again. I can only pray it is soon.

Hey Ben,
Now that you're running barefoot, you need to remember to ask your photographers to take full body shots. In those upper body shots, you look just like a "normal" runner...
Good point Ken Bob. I will have my wife take a full body shot this weekend at the marathon!
