| Quote from slbryand on 7/16/2007 at 2:28 PM: I have heart breaking news. I borke my ankle last night running. It was dark and i stepped in a hole and broke it. They put it in a cast and said it might require surgery. So my running days are on hold for a while it looks like. And that sucks.
Dude, I'm so sorry to hear that.  Best wishes on a speedy and complete recovery.
BTW, pool running is great cross / injury training if you are able to do it.

| I'm so sorry about your ankle!!! Ouch! That's been my biggest fear since I started running, even more than scary dogs and old perverts in redneck trucks (and those are abundant on my usual routes). I broke my ankle a few years ago, but I was very obese at the time, so it was really hard to heal because I could barely get around on crutches. You're fit, so you'll be much better off. I'm really sorry to hear it, though -- I hope you have a fast recovery. |

Hang in there, Steven. A great group here at RA is "On The Bench" - really helps while you are in rehab. Hope the cast does the trick. Keep us posted on your progress.

That's one helluva quick comeback, it's good to be young. 
I don't know if stressing your newly mended ankle so soon will help or hurt in the long run, but I wish you continued success in your recovery. |

*LOL* I was thinking the injury JUST happened and then he got his cast off. I really need to learn to pay attention to dates of posts.
Good luck and be careful! |
