When it comes to endurance, long-distance running as opposed to sprinting short distances like Jamaican gold medalist and record breaker Usain Bolt (100m, 200m), there is not just one way to run.
There are many techniques out there and almost as many variations as there are runners. When watching the men's marathon (yes, I watched the men's marathon, which I guess establishes me as a running geek even if my weekly mileage doesn't), I kept using my DVR to pause the action and try to figure out where these elite runners strike: heel, midfoot, or toe.

I just took Puma's new running shoe, the Cell Voltra ($100), out for a test run.
The first thing I noticed was that the shoe is incredibly light. Being the curious sort, I put it on my digital kitchen scale to weight it.

It has taken me considerably longer to reconcile my negative feelings of running downhill with the power I feel running up the other side. Unlike biking down a descent where gravity pulls you along, running downhill is work and it's hard on your quads and knees. In my neck of the woods though, it's difficult to find a flat run so I've had to cultivate a love of running downhill.

I saw a woman on public transportation the other day who was dressed to the nines — very self-consciously so.
She had on loads of Diana Vreeland-esque bangles, black leggings, a black cape, black hat, black heels, a red skirt and red lips. She was also rocking a bowl cut.

The new cast of The Hills continued filming on Friday after their Mexican fiesta fun earlier in the week. Stephanie Pratt, in her shorts and heels combo, took a moment to strike back at Paris Hilton for insulting their show before joining Audrina Patridge for lunch. Meanwhile, Kristin spent some time with her ex boyfriend Brody at Enoteca Drago.

If you're a runner, it's a must to know what type of pronator you are. Pronation refers to the way your foot rolls when it hits the ground, and there are three types: normal pronation, overpronation, and underpronation (aka supination). Figuring out your running pattern will help you buy the right kind of running shoe, which will not only make running more comfortable, but it can also prevent injury.
