Five Miles Didn't Happen

I started out with the Woodbury Runners (6:05 pm Thursdays in Colby Lake Park), but my right ankle hurt and seemed to get worse as I ran. Sometimes it hurts a little at the start of a run and gradually gets better - not this time. So I stopped and limped back to the car. I rarely quit a run, but with a marathon on the horizon I didn’t want to risk a disabling injury. I’m hoping that it will be better by Saturday with the SCV Runners.

28 miles for this week, not the planned 33. New week starts Saturday.

  1. Don,

    Sorry to hear about your ankle, I hope it heals quickly. I didn't make the SCV run this morning as I was in Rochester for a half. It was a great event and I ran good too.

  2. FEEL BETTER! You did the right thing backing off for the day. I'm nursing a little hamsting thing myself, which is a big drag.

    Take care of it and you'll be back out there in no time.
