I just started up a new group under "Social Groups" called "On the Bench." It's for those of us who, due to illness or injury, are taking a forced break from running. I thought we could use a forum to share our woes and commiserate a bit. Black eye

Oh, what a great idea...though I really hope I never have reason to join. Wink

I think this is a great idea, Janell! By the way, you might consider expanding it to include people forced to miss races because life intrudes. I've been awfully bummed about missing out on an upcoming planned marathon ... I was feeling awfully benched, even though it's just personal and business stuff and not injury.

Jake, I think you'd qualify just on the basis of your ongoing toe issues, no? Black eye

C'mon in, the water's fine!
