Link Roundup – Limping Man Edition
In my last roundup, I noted that I recently decided to start running. I’ve been taking it slow, but have still managed to develop some hip pain. I’m thus currently taking a week off to recover. The good news it that I’ve identified the problem.
The main issue is that my feet supinate (roll slightly outward) when I run, so I picked up some new running shoes to better stabilize my feet. I also picked up a foam roller to help with the recovery, and am hoping to run a Memorial Day 5k.
And now… Here are some recent finance articles that caught my eye:

- The Power of Small: Improve Your Finances One Step at a Time
- Tricks to Save on the Summer Electric Bill
- Read Your Financial Statements Like a Banker
- Should We Buy a Vacation Home?
- Twelve Ways to Stretch a Dollar By Not Spending It
That’s it. Have a great (rest of the) week! And stay healthy.

Nickel, thank you for the link to my article.
As for running, I have to start exercise as well. I can’t run because it’s too much for my legs. Have you considered biking instead?

Great links! As a fellow runner, I hope that your hip will feel better soon and that you will have a good 5k. Keep on running.

Good for you for trying this program, Nickel. You’ve inspired me tonight. I’m printing off the cto5k program now. Have you tried the hip flexor stretch? I used to have hip problems from running. That one helped me a bit.
