Bingham.......

So, the head penguin, John Bingham, posts today that he's down with numbness in his leg and groin. This isn't particularly good news to this newbie penguin. In fact, during the past week....as I've perused the running blogs..... I've been amazed at all of the injuries and aches and pains. Back in the late 60's, when Kenneth Cooper wrote his first aerobics books, thousands of middle aged people (my father included) started running. Unfortunately, Cooper preached the message that "more is better," and I watched as my father jogged and carefully logged mile-after-mile-after-mile and ran himself into the ground; finally an injury to his sciatic nerve put him on the sideline. I'm beginning to wonder if anything has changed.
