Some good stuff this week, including info on running headaches, the Alltop.com hook-up, LOST marathoners and the theory of relativity.

In Here

It's been an interesting week, for sure. http://Running.Alltop.com launched this week, and we're excited to have been a part of it. We've also had the honor of posting Power Foods for Runners from athlete and running expert Paul Stofko.

Out There

On top of all that goodness, here's 10 links from around the web:

I love this little questionnaire, and Nick Symmonds' answers. How would you answer them?
I'll Run for Donuts: LOST running
Hy. Sterical. If you're a LOST fan (and a runner), this is a funny mash-up post from I'll Run for Donuts
Ask the Running Doc
Some advice about avoiding hyponatremia from Dr. Lewis G. Maharam. Over-hydration during a marathon (or other race) can have serious consequences.
Know Thyself : Complete Running Network
A nice article on motivation, accessing Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (yep, straight outta undergrad yo) for insight. Take the test and figure out what motivates you.
For Beginners Only
Get headaches after you run? Check this out.
Welcome to TweetSmart
A Twitter-driven "knowledge base" that organizes information based on categories submitted by users. Just launched this past week and is still growing. Pretty darn slick!
Running in Columbus, GA » Blog Archive » The 5 Best Accessories for Runners
The title says it all—good accessory recommendations for runners. The Road ID suggestion is great (I opt to carry my driver's license, insurance card and CC when I run, and only get shorts that have that little inner pocket...), but passing out during runs is something I hope never to do.
Running in Columbus, GA » Blog Archive » Finally Friday
Another one from Running in Columbus, GA. Yeah. You really can't beat this. Well, you probably could, but you wouldn't have a job afterwards.
Mr. Low Body Fat's Blog
I caught this guy's spot on CNN—check out the pics and how he was able to transform himself. Really informative and inspiring.
Running like my life depends on it!: Running and Einstein's Special theory of Relativity - A blog about running in Chennai and other parts of the world!
This post makes you happy you read Hawking's "A Brief History of Time". Okay, maybe not. But it's a fun (and thought provoking) connection of relativity science and running. A good quick read.
