A setback

Well, I've encountered my first setback. The other week, when I went on that epic run, I did something not so good to myself. Did something not so great to one of my feet. For the last week and a half, I've had this super sexy boot on my foot. I saw the doctor yesterday, and nothing is broken. But I did cause some strain on the tendons an bones. For the next couple of weeks, I just need to take it easy, no running. While my initial response to just having the injruy was "I don't care, I'll let it heal and I'll run regardless what they say", I've backed away from that a bit. I should be fine in a few weeks, and be able to run in September. I am feeling a bit more cautious however, and I'm a bit uncertain. The other day I was very much set on dropping out. But I think I'm just going to hang in a limbo status until I know for sure what I can and cannot do. It's still almost 2 months away. Lots of time to recover, get strong, and make a final decision. I appriciate all the support I have gotten, and will keep everyone posted as things develop.
