Well, I just found out last night that I'm not going to be able to complete any of my running goals. I went to the doctor and he gave me a brace to help with a case of tendinitis. He said that I could definitely run in it, but when I've tried, I only get about a quarter mile before it would get painfully tight, no matter how much I loosened the laces.
Instead of pushing through and risking further injury, I'm going to lay low for the remainder of the month and just concentrate on lifting weights.
Sorry to hear that Issaknits. I hope it won't be too long before you're able to get back to running.

Issaknits: good for you for taking precautions. Better to let it heal now so that it can be strong for many years to come.
I managed a little exercise today even when most of the day was spent in hospital waiting rooms while MiL had knee replacement surgery. She's fine and I walked a couple of times outside the hospital and stretched a bit when I got home. Yay for my exercise streak!
