I woke up this morning to
I feel sluggish, bored and frustrated. Hoping for some answers from the orthopaedic specialist tomorrow.
Thanks to everyone who ran some miles on my behalf this weekend. I don't know what I would do during times like this without such a great support group.

I never blogged about my long run this weekend, but I definately thought about you when running on Sat morning. :-)
Looking forward to your post tomorrow, hope you get some good news :) Glad you got a pillow aided sleep in your bed too!! You still beat my mileage for the month despite your days off!! :D
I ran 20 long, cold miles for you on Saturday :) Get better soon!
Hope you get good news tomorrow! I felt a little guilty today not wanting to run, I eventually did, and it was it part because I thought of how much you likely wanted to get out and run! Hang in there, still sending healing vibes your way!
Boo. I'm thinking happy running healing thoughts for you.
Good luck tomorrow and give it time. Yes, today was a nice day for a run, but basically most days are too cold or have bad footing, so if this had to happen to you at all it's a good time of year to be healing.
Good luck tomorrow. Today was the first day in awhile that was truly a nice day to run so I tried to ensure I enjoyed it.
Is there anyway to do cross training like sitting on the bike or something?? Its hard for me to tell how restricted you are - just a suggestion!
Hope for good news, and time will heal it.
GOOD LUCK today chica!! Let us know how it goes! I hope it's nothing but the best news :-)
Hope everything goes good at the doctor today!
sending you good news vibes.....
Just hang in there. I'm pretty sure with that type of injury you're looking at 6-8 weeks healing and recovery, and maybe about 4-6 weeks of rebuilding, so its not going to be a quick fix. Not trying to be pessimistic about it, just realistic, so you know what you are facing. You should be able to start running (hopefully) based on your ortho's recommendations, but hopefully within 6 weeks. The problem you will have is whether the bones are healed, and that may be 8 weeks. If so, then probably no running for at least that long. After that, it will most likely be how much you can tolerate. Its so hard to look that far down the road and yet not know what's going to happen. I would think you could easily sit on a bike, or maybe do elliptical within a few weeks, however. The fact that you are getting restless is actually a good sign.
I wish I could do more than run for you.
I actually talked Mr C into running 12 miles instead of 9 this weekend. That's the 3rd time I've run that far and that's the farthest he has ever run.
We're feeling it too :-)
:(
i hope the dr has some good news for you. hang in there!!!
Good luck tomorrow. We'll be rooting for you!
Vickie made some good points, listen to your body and wait for the ortho....hang tough girl, you're doing great...
think long term...you want to still be running at my age! ;^)
Thanks for visiting me. I'm sorry to hear you're laid up with an injury. Nothing is worse than wanting to run and not being able to!
I'm going to add you to my blog list if that's OK.
i hope today went well! i definitely thought of you on my run yesterday. it was sunny and in the 50's and i thought about how perfect the weather was on my honorary run for you. we got in 8.1 miles by the way, if you want to log it :)
keep your head up. we all have setbacks but you'll bounce back!
I ran an extra two for ya. It was a good way to force myself to keep the pace during my long run.
What did the orthopedist say? I hope it was decent news.
I'll be thinking of you the next time I get out there!
Ugh. Crossed fingers for some good news.
you still got some good mileage, or kilometerage going! youll be back on the streets before you know it
I'm hoping you'll get some really good news very soon. Hang in there. You'll come back stronger than ever!
:(
Hang in there. Like all the good blog homies listed above me, I feel for you, and hope you heal fast and get back to running soon.
