Damaged Goods

Last Saturday I attempted to run the Komen 5K in Hartford. At about the 1.5 mile mark, I heard a pop in my left foot and felt a bunch of pain with every step. I slowed down and ended up walking the race. I suspected the worst, so I iced, elevated and tried to stay off it until I finally got an appointment and xray today. I have a fractured 2nd metatarsal in my foot. This means 6-8 weeks of no running and wearing a hard soled shoe everyday. I may be able to bike in a couple of weeks. Regardless, I’m not happy.
