Errr, ummm, yeah

So you know how I said it hurt for a little when I ran?  Turns out I may have a stress fracture in my ankle.  Yup.  Pure .... suckiness.

So over the last couple weeks I have gained weight but only a few (5, 5 God Damn Pounds) pounds and I have to start going to the gym and using the stationary bike.  Of course I am only guessing at the fracture, but I thought I was ok. I in fact waited a few days when it didn't hurt to walk or run and tried it out.  It didn't hurt until the 2 mile mark.  So I am not exactly sure what the deal is.

Lately....

So, lately I have been trying to break my plateau trend and have been running my ass off.  Or, more likely, my ankle off.  It is weird, it hurts the first mile or so and is fine.  It is like it needs to warm up first...

I was able to get some new five fingers yesterday.  I went with the new style Bikilas and I am indifferent as of yet.  They fit different and they don't hug around my ankle like they should.  BUT, the sole is thicker and I am thankful, or will be after I try them out on gravel in the morning.  Maybe.  I can't decide yet.  My ankle hurts and I should give it a rest, but I won't be able to go and run tomorrow.

OK, I will.  Maybe....
