thanks for the get well message. I think my head hurts from being aggravated that it happened - much more than my foot hurts. Cant even put my foot on the floor. All my - non-health minded friends are giving me the " I told you so " talk ------------- why do I exercise - why do I run and bike long distances at my age? why am I careful with eating - and why do I give up sweets and desserts for lent? Ive gotten the fat is where its at - and trying to be healthy at our age will kill you comedy lines.....................
Im guessing I will be off the foot totally for at least one month -[ cant ride in the NYC bike tour. Ugh ---------------- but ive started looking at upper body sitting workouts. Gotta find that rainbow --------- and make the best of it.
thanks again.

Nice page! And thanks so much for the bike. But that actually is the road we live on- we are 2 miles down from that point. About half my driving is on gravel. The wild life can be a challenge- cougars are the scariest because they're so smart.
Also proud of you for beating the "C". It takes a very strong person to do that.
Have a great weekend
PS Hope you don't mind- added you as a friend.

Today Sept 1 I set a PB for a 10k run. 54.17, what a trip this has been ! One year ago a 3 mile run was all I could muster. 3 years ago I could only walk my block.
