Yes, good luck tomorrow!!! Trudging is better than nothing, but it does stink. SORRY! Just know you have good company, we have all been there and most of us will be there again. ;o)

Very encouraging that you can go 2 miles and still feel good. I can't see a long recovery time if you play this smart. Nice attitude.

32 and flurries is a great day around here! I hope the PT went well! I hope you heal up soon so that I can see you in Boston!!

Dan I'm starting to feel my own trudging. I'm putting in PT 3 times a week and it doesn't seem like my achillies is getting better, so I've decided rather than continue to run I'm just going to take some time off.

Heal me, LORD, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.

HEY, how is it going????

From Dan on Sun, Dec 18, 2011 at 18:22:59 from 76.235.51.56

Hey guys- took some time away. Ran my two miles a few days. I am seeming starting to improve, but the bad news is I am not allowed more than 2 mile, NO biking, NO elliptical as both aggravate the nerve area! Oh well... Christmas is one week away! Crazy. Hope everyone is well.

From Kelli on Sun, Dec 18, 2011 at 23:57:14 from 71.219.80.158

Well, 2 miles is 2 miles, right??? I hope it heals quickly, hang in there. I know how much it stinks to not be able to run, no words can console really!

HAVE A GREAT CHRISTMAS!!!!!
