Racing side-lined

Hey all, I haven't been very good at keeping everyone posted on the adventure racing front. Unfortunately training has been shaky lately. Since beginning I was off sick for a week or so and just last weekend I sprained my ankle so I'm not wondering if the race is going to happen. I was playing with Kali in a field and stepped in a hole. She thought it was a great game, pouncing at me and running around in circles and I sat wailing in pain. Of course nobody was around to pick me up, but fortunately I was able to hobble home, and after a bit of ice, drive out to the Dr. I tried a nice after hours clinic first and got in after waiting only 10 min!... but then got sent to emergency anyway for X-rays and waited there for about 2 hours (brought a puzzle book so at least i was occupied). Once I got in to see the doctor he pronounced that it was a sprain and I didn't need an x-ray after all, gave me some crutches, and sent me home. Thankfully I've had some super helpful friends (thanks Kyle & Wanda) that have come by to take Kali for a run and met me for puppy play-dates. I guess it had the effect of making for a super productive work week school-wise (although it would have worked out better for timing if I could have used that saturday *shrug*)... but after more than a week with limited physical activity I am now getting antsy for a run! Good news...Tom will be home in a few days and I'll be able to start posting some pictures to liven the site up!
