Sooner or later
This had to happen sooner or later.
The nagging pain in my forefoot; that intensified and moved into my toes a couple weeks ago... it's a stress fracture. Found out today.
Good news is that its a toe bone, not a foot bone, so it should heal faster. And I can continue to swim and lift weights. No running for a few weeks. No Flying Pig or Navy challenge.
No cycling either. Hopscotch and break dancing are out too.
I have never kept a good record of my running. I don't run for that. But I was thinking today and I think I guess I've averaged at least 35 miles a week since 1996. That's over 20,000 miles in those years. Lots of sore muscles and lots of overtraining. A couple of really gnarly feet. But until now, the frame has held up.

My Rate
Soon, you'll be able to buy auto insurance priced at a rate based on how, how much, and when you drive (ie, drive like a maniac, pay more). The new product is called My Rate. I've been working with the My Rate launch team for the past few months, working on the messaging and communication.
The Freakonomics guys wrote a blog post on it; its also going to appear in the NYT Magazine on Sunday. Check it out.
