Wacky Wednesday

About three weeks ago I somehow injured my hip and have not been able to run since then. (This is very sad for me as I was running about 35 miles a week.) I have been going for physical therapy for about a week and I really enjoy it. Well, aside from the pain part. :) My physical therapist thinks that it the problem is actually with my foot and has caused hip pain too. This doesn't really surprise me because I had a lot of foot issues in high school.

Anyway, back to the story. About two months ago I asked my mom and brother if they wanted to run a 30K (18.6 miles) race with me while I was home for Christmas. I was looking forward to it and trying to train. So on my second day of physical therapy as I am painfully doing stretches, I ask my therapist if she thinks I will be ready to run a 30K by mid-December. I know that she was struggling from laughing as she kindly told me that no, I would not be ready. I am now just hoping that I will actually be able to run a pain-free mile by then...
