George I saw the Minimus on sale so what's your latest field report on them? I have flat feet so I'm a bit hesitant.
Sounds like you had a runners high

It's more a sense of calmness than really a high. You just feel better mostly. Now and then I feel buzzed.
Yup....that's it
The minimus are good at protecting your feet from cuts and such...but if you're on hard ground or sharp rocks, you'll feel it...which is what I want...It's a choice...it forces you to run in a way that uses the perfect shock absorber(your foot) to it's maximum potential....I alternate from those to a cross training shoe, because you use all calf when you use them...It takes a while to build up the calf muscle when you first start using them. They are about 9 months old and only have enough wear to show what parts of my foot are doing the work....I'm sure if I used them on pavement they'd wear out faster though
5k in 22.33 with total of 3.7 miles. got a triathelon next week and it is quite the tenses
2-3-2013. A Goatcabin. Not a stellar run (it had it's moments) but far better than yesterday's athletic abortion.
2.7 miles today before superbowl party woohoo ravens

So who here will be kind enough to help a beginner get started?
I figure if I get up at 5, I should have enough time to get some running in.
It's .6 miles around my block.
There's tons of questions. I could Google it all but it seems there are experts right here.
Stretching? What kind?
Is it ok to run on an empty stomach? SHould I eat/drink something first?
What kind of clothes do you people wear for running in winter? It's cold out!!
Hermmmm.... There's more but I'm at work.
Thanks
