Moni - Rope jumping is actually how I started to loose weight in the beginning. I was too heavy for running etc. so I just started jump roping w/ the girls; it is great exercise!! <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">
 
Thanks TY! For EVERYTHING!!! Will you come w/ me to my next appointment w/ me?!?!? <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> Right now it is doing OK. Thanks for the offer for the boot. If I wear laced shoes and this brace thingy, it seems to be pretty stable. Plus he added all this cushioning to the bottom of the orthotic to help too. I was going to take a total rest day but when I told the girls we weren't going to the gym, they FREAKED OUT on me!!! So I said, "OK. I will go and swim." So much for resting, huh?<br><br>
I didn't get to tell you that DD7 totally impressed the doc! They started talking about dinosaurs and he asked her if she knew that birds are decendents from dinos and she said "Yes, because dinos had 3 toes like birds and (some number) of vertabre in the backbones". The med student's jaw dropped and he said "How old is she?". <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> It was cute - my little sponge!!
 
Nicole-I'm so sorry I didn't even know you were hurt. ((((nic)))))<br><br><br>
I ran my 5 miles after work then I played softball with my girls and<br>
then kickball them against me so I sure got my share of running around<br>
the yard with them.<br><br>
gotta go help dh bbl
 
<span><b>(((((Nicole)))))</b></span>-I'm so sorry but you can def keep your cardio up with swimming and elliptical, even cycling but I know you hate it<img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif"> Could he tell how long it's been fractured?
 
OMG Nicole! I'm so sorry!!!!!! The best thing is that you have a great doctor who will get you running again- that's huge! Bones heal in two week increments (according to my doc) and you have time on your side. You have a great attitude about it too. I do have to say I second Ty on the boot. They're horrible (I wore mine for 8 weeks), but they help ensure you don't do any more damage. Although I'm sure your doctor is looking out for you. I have one too if you'd like to borrow it.
 
I'm sorry about your SF Nicole. I'll be right there with ya in the pool. It's going to be my second home for a while - that and my lazyman bike. Sounds like you have a good dr, though.<br><br>
Have a good night everyone.
 
so checked the mail today, no running skirt, no red crocs, no maniac singlet <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif"> Citibank, Discover and Chase seemed to be on the ball though...
