  My prostatectomy surgery is in two weeks. How should I best prepare for it?.

  An oncologist recently told me that complications rates for erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence are about 2% with a good surgeon. There is definitely the risk that you will be in that 2%, but the odds are definitely in your favor. Best of luck with the procedure.

  I am running in a marathon. Got any tips?

  I’m not sure what your training regimen is right now, or if you are just starting… nonetheless, it’s important not to give yourself an over-use injury early on in your training with too much enthusiasm. Build up your mileage slowly during the initial training session. I always thought it was helpful to have two pairs of running shoes. You can alternate which ones you run in- this will greatly reduce the wear on your feet and help prevent blisters and other nasties on your feet. You can also use foot powder to help keep your feet dry when you run if you are “foot sweater”. Make yourself a training schedule with target mileage throughout the cycle so that you increase your distances at appropriate intervals. Good luck!

  Advice for wakeboarding?

  I assume you are having difficulty getting up out of the water. Is this correct? If so, insure that your legs are bent and your knees are close to your chest. Keep your arms straight and your back straight as the boat goes. I’m sure the people you were with told you to keep the board perpendicular to the rope when you begin, then you slowly move it 90 degrees as you are pulled up out of the water. They probably also told you not to “stand up” but let the boat pull you up- it’s good advice. You don’t need to be that strong if you have good technique. It’s much easier to show you then explain it in words, but I hope that helps.
