<p>Good morning!</p>
<p>The usual run and workout for me this morning.</p>
<p>DB, hope you enjoyed the swim and run yesterday.</p>
<p>Batmomm, hope the legs felt good for your run. You need to get them ready for Boston next year.</p>
<p>Nicole, hope you got caught up with the paper work. Make sure Kenobi and Tahiri don't get a hold of it!</p>
<p>Sisu, nice job getting 3rd in your category! I'm sure your worst 10k would kill anything I could muster right now. Enjoy your vacation!</p>

<p>awesome job Susan! Sounds like a fun vacation.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>good morning Mr Consistency! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Today I'm supposed to do my upper body and run 6 but so far I did a workout called Pain Storm inadvertently <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/rolleyes.gif" title="">.  Let's see what I can still muster.</p>

<p>Well, yesterday's run/swim turned into a rest day because my knees ached and I was tired and being a wimp.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Then today's run/bike/swim (that was originally just bike) turned into a run/bike because of thunder.  So now tomorrow's run/swim might have to turn into a run/swim/swim.  Then again, I might just drop the extra swim and leave it alone, or tack the extra swim onto Thursday's bike.  Decisions decisions.....</p>

<p>Suds - Hope the day is going well. </p>

<p>Batmomm - "Pain Storm" doesn't sound like the kind of thing you just stumble into, well except that one time I stumbled into a hornet nest.  That was a pain storm, but I have a feeling that's not what you meant.</p>

<p>Well it looks like I am in the shoe (although slightly modified) for another 2 weeks, possibly a month and have to take a nerve blocker.  Definatively confirmed bone, nerve and ligament damage.  He said now that the fluid build up is down, he could see the fracture better and it looks like I have had a "plasticized" fracture that will start to heal, then refracture - an ugly circle of life - for quite a while.  Add ligaments that have been stretched from years of swimming.  Stubbing my toe was the straw that broke the camels back and it more or less blew up.  I have been cleared to do the stationary bike and upper body/core stuff as long as I don't bear too much weight on it.  The guy who owns our local running store has offered to loan me his spare trainer (he is a major triathlete) so I can pick it up tomorrow or Thursday.  Doc agreed that I am probably a little to accident prone/Polish to be riding a bike that actually moves.  LOL!!  He does NOT think my running carear is over at this point.  Just on hold for a while.  </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Was chatting w/ Galea while I was waiting for my prescription and who walks up but the jailbird Charlie Engle!!  So I made him say hello to Gaela - figured mortifying embarressment would help him turn his life around.  LOL! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sudsy - OMG you made me CRINGE w/ fear at the thought of the puppies getting my papers!!  I can only IMAGINE what the room would look like!  The cats are bad enough! </p>
<p>Galea - where are the rodent pictures?    Thanks again for listening and the pep talk!!  My mood always elevates when I am around you.  Seriously!  I could be quite the athlete if I lived in Richmond (or quite the hermit in an effort to avoid you! LOL)</p>
<p>DB - try a "swim/run/swim", seriously!  Just change out of your swim trunks to avoid chafing.  I'm w/ you on my image of "pain storm" being a hornets nest!  Have fun tomorrow!! </p>
