I'm really flattered that you enjoyed the site. I really enjoy your site, and you magazine it has a ton of really great content, and the east coast focus is really cool. Be sure to check back for more content, or subscribe to the &lt;a href="http://mikemartinracing.com/?feed=rss2" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="RSS"&gt;RSS Feed&lt;/a&gt;. Thanks a lot for your comment, and the well wishes. Keep up the great work on your site/magazine as well!. Just a quick question, however, why aren't any of the newer issues online? The PDF downloads used to be really cool.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Mike Martin</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 14 Nov 2008 15:18:24 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Planning for 2009 (Step 1): Winter Cross-Training</title><link>http://mikemartinracing.com/?p=18#comment-3777096</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Wow Cori, i guess I never realized how serious your leg injuries were. Its great that you can get back on the bike (inside at least), cycling is a great way to stay in shape. I have heard a lot of bad things about PT, it seems to be very vigorous and sometimes painful, but I suppose it is a necessary step. As far as diet goes, while I like to stay in shape, i eat a ton of food. Lots of fruits, veggies, grains, and meats. I'm not sure how well I would be able to deal with a depleted diet. I hope your situation improves, keep at the PT and the cycling and before long you'll be back to normal. Have they given you a date yet on when you will be able to ride mx again?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Mike Martin</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 14 Nov 2008 15:12:53 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Planning for 2009 (Step 1): Winter Cross-Training</title><link>http://mikemartinracing.com/?p=18#comment-3765354</link><description>&lt;p&gt;With all of the complications from my broken leg, my winter training is very limited from what I'm used to doing. However since moving to Traverse City I now have the opportunity to pick up sports like cross country skiing and aerobic snowshoeing on the trails. Physical therapy started this week and its making me realize just how much damage I did to my leg/ankle, and how much longer its really going to take before I can even jog again. I just set up my bike on my trainer (I'd like to try rollers) so I'm going to alternate riding the bike  4 days a week, on the days I don't have PT. Being on blood thinners has also destroyed my diet thus far (no green veggiesfor the most part) so I'm working with my doctor to find a balance in my medications and my diet. The holidays are never easy but hopefully I'll start seeing some consistent changes/progress from here on out. As corny as it sounds, get one of those giant yoga balls and some of the elastic resistance bands...its amazing the workout you can get with your own body weight and a bit of rubber...no weight sets needed.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Cori</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 13 Nov 2008 22:15:23 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Planning for 2009 (Step 1): Winter Cross-Training</title><link>http://mikemartinracing.com/?p=18#comment-3763501</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Hey Mike...linked your blog through vital mx and thought it was well written.
