Magazines

There are three magazines which I read regularly:

1)  Runner's World of course.  The new issue came today.  There is always an article about people who inspire me.  There is usually a recipe which I read but rarely make - mainly because Jim does most of the cooking.  I usually try the exercises they suggest.  This month's issue had my least favorite section - shoes.  I am going to wear Brooks regardless of what the shoe guide says.  To me this is a waste of magazine.  They could use the pages for something much more interesting.  However, I do enjoy my Runner's World.
2)  Backpacker Magazine.  I love reading about all the wonderful places to hike and backpack.  Many of these places would be great for running also.  I do almost all my running outdoors.
3)  American Quilter.  This magazine has nothing to do with running but I like to make quilts.  I do plan on making a running themed quilt someday.

Today was a rest day.  I really felt like running today.  I mentioned to Jim I might go for a run but he reminded me of the importance of resting especially after yesterday's hilly long run.  I don't always listen to Jim but I did today and did stretching and strength.
