Hello Again

No, I did not fall into a black hole.

2 weeks ago, I was jogging around a park's gravel path (which I don't really recommend, really boring) and there was a root. I had seen and sidestepped this root each of the previous 5 times I had gone around the track, but this time I was glancing at my phone and missed it. Lurching sprawl, bruised knee, sprained ankle. It turned all kinds of pretty colors.

I got up and walked the distance from where I was to my car and quickly concluded that further running that day was out. Even just finishing out the time walking around the track was out. So home I went and ice I got. Surely the next day - no. Or the next - no. Here we are, two weeks later and it's just barely strong enough to run on.

I can't tell you how frustrating it is to resolve to run, muster the energy and will to run and then not be able to run. It actually made me look forward to jogging Friday.

Until I started, anyway.
