I made a few online purchases yesterday. First I bought a couple TrioPacks and some Bee Venom Cream from Dancing Bee Acres. Dancing Bee Acres’ Bee Venom Cream has worked great for me during my last two marathons, so I’m hoping it will help me have a good Boston Marathon as well. I use plenty on my feet, ankles, and shins, and it keeps my feet from swelling during the later miles and helps me finish strong. Also, it’s completely natural. I only use it on marathon day though, and not during training, because it’s kind of expensive. In addition, I ordered the novel Extravagance by Gary Krist.
