RSS Doesn’t Like My Excerpts

  I apologize if this issue has been addressed before, but I searched the archives and couldn’t find an answer.

  I’m having a problem with my blog Hidden Track (http://www.glidemagazine.com/hiddentrack). Whenever I use the optional excerpt field for longer posts everything but the excerpt shows up in RSS readers. The beginning of the post is cut off for everyone who reads the post via RSS. Obviously this annoys some of our readers, and makes us look quite unprofessional.

  Whenever we don’t use the optional excerpt the RSS feed comes out perfect, but some of our posts are long so we really like using the excerpt feature.

  Does anyone have any advice on how we can get excerpted pieces to syndicate properly?

  Thanks for your help!
