Incorporating subtle little changes in your daily life that lead to being more physically active is something many of us strive towards. While more movement is good, I think that moving in the right patterns is even better. Not only is it more comfortable to do, but also it will allow you to keep movingContinue reading “Small changes. Better daily movement.”

Back to Boston
Reflect, relive, run…Boston. This year I head back to Boston to be a part of the marathon. This year is in the 119th running of the iconic event. This year it is April 20th – always the third Monday of April. Marathon Monday (Patriots’ Day) is a state holiday for Massachusetts. It celebrates theContinue reading “Back to Boston”
Get off your tush!
The Washington Post has talked about it. The Centers for Disease Control have studied it. So why do people still sit and are inactive for upwards of 22 hours a day?! Because it is what our society has gone to. There are huge lines at the drive-thru of McDonald’s and Starbucks, furniture companies areContinue reading “Get off your tush!”

I recently attended the National Athletic Trainers Association Clinical Symposia and Expo in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Birthday Reflection
Today is my 39th birthday. I am the only son of Roger and Cathy Green and the oldest child (my little sister, Elise, is three years younger). I’ll bet when my parents had me, they wondered what I would do as I grew up the same way that my wife, Jill, and I wonder what ourContinue reading “Birthday Reflection”
The Principles of Natural Running with Dr. Mark
I am humbled to call Dr. Mark Cucuzzella a friend. Mark and I had the wonderful opportunity to meet in 2011 at a specialty running meeting hosted by Newton Running in Boulder, Colorado (yeah, I know…real tough place to have a meeting). (I’m pictured here with Jay Dicharry and Dr. Mark. We had just run up FlagstaffContinue reading “The Principles of Natural Running with Dr. Mark”
You Have To Crawl Before You Can Walk
We have all heard that expression used in a number of different ways – attending to small work details to build towards larger ones, a golfer practicing his putting before hitting the driving range, and then literally, a baby learning to crawl before he can walk. Last night, I participated in an activity for theContinue reading “You Have To Crawl Before You Can Walk”
Dynamic Warm-up from a Pro
Many of you think that we are not in the same league as a professional distance runner. And you are right. They have a different life – they eat, sleep, and run. But we can learn from them and adapt it for our lives and become better at what we enjoy doing – running. IContinue reading “Dynamic Warm-up from a Pro”
Being at the Boston Marathon
BQ To the non-runner, this might not seem like a significant abbreviation. But to those of us non-Olympians that aspire to “running greatness”, being a Boston Qualifier might be as close as we get to achievement on a grand stage. Except for the Olympics and some championship races, the Boston Marathon is the only U.S.Continue reading “Being at the Boston Marathon”
