I'm voting for Amanda, too!

Was reading thru your blog about your knee problems, etc. I've also struggled this year with various aches and pains around my knees and so on, and once went to a PT who said I had a strained left hamstring. He said I need to strengthen my hamstrings because they are too weak in relation to my quads. Now I've been taking an exercise class where the "coach" is big on glute strengthening exercises. I guess it's pretty common to have weak hamstrings and glutes! Too bad they're harder to train than quads! I have stairs in my house, so I'm always working my quads. To try to mix things up, I decided to go down the stairs in different ways, such as sideways and backwards, to try to target different muscles. This way I can get some exercise in just by moving around in my house!

This year I managed to complete my first two triathlons, two half marathons (the 1st was put on by a local running club, the 2nd was a fairly big one), a duathlon (30-mile bike ride, 4.3 mile trail run, which I mostly walked), and a half-century bike tour, so I feel pretty good about what I've accomplished.

Wishing you success in your PT exercises and hope you have an even better season next year! :)
