Hi everybody!  Welcome to my blog. Please bear with me as I start on my journey in this new endeavor.  My name is Joe Rainone.  A lot of you might know me from one of the social media sites I am on.  On Twitter and Instagram I am @JSRainman1, on Facebook I am Joe S Rainone and on Google+ I am JSRainman1969. On this blog I will talk about running and all aspects of it from nutrition and fueling to recovery and injury prevention.  I will talk about races that I run and races I would like to run at some point.  I will talk about my training (I am presently training for the Clearwater 50k, my first ultra) and will guide you, if need be, with suggestions during your training.  I have become so passionate about my running that  I decided to make it an even bigger part of my life.  I am presently in the final phase of becoming a certified marathon coach through the NAASFP, The North American Academy for Sports Fitness Professionals, so with that the door opens even further.  I will discuss products that I use and others that I like, from gels and hydration products to running shoes and tech shirts and everything else in between. So, hop on board and come along for the ride with JSRainmanRuns.  You will be glad that you did.
