• I just found out that I am slightly anemic. I’ve started an iron supplement regimen but was wondering if you had any advice on how to handle my workouts until my levels are back to normal. Thank you!

• Thank you for the feedback last week about running schedules. I’ve been thinking about it and here is how I think I would best like to structure my week. Run Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, and off Friday and Sunday. With my work schedule, Saturday is the only day I can run longer than 60 minutes in one shot and still meet all of my family obligations. How do you suggest I organize the workouts for the rest of the days.
