Here's my fix: pack good running shoes and appropriate running attire for weather, check in with area running groups ahead of time for paths, safe running areas, etc. Then: DO IT! Better yet, for short trips, stay at hotels with good fitness centers & hop on the treadmill.</p> http://www.starling-fitness.com/archives/2007/07/24/running-on-the-run/#comment-122370 Nan B.

Running with goals has changed my life, fitness level and self image. Today I'm reflecting on the importance of stretching and cross-training, after coming off of a hamstring injury that kept me out for six weeks. In between, swimming, cycling and a bit of physical therapy have worked wonders. I continue to be inspired by running and my fellow runners. Here is to the next 10-miler, working up to it slowly of course!</p>
