I think drivers often look for other vehicles while entering the road, or turning, but are somehow oblivious to both runners and cyclists.<br /><br />I run with a fairly large group of runners, and it is always unsettling when one of us becomes injured. Sometimes it can be attributed to training errors, but often, I think it's simply luck (or bad luck). We've all run with aches and pains, but at what point do you run through the pain and what point do you stop running? <br /><br />If you need surgery on your knee, I wish you a speedy recovery! Again, several of the runners I run with have had surgery and have returned to running.

Take care of yourself, we will still be here when you are healed and ready to race again<br /><br />Take Care<br />ScottBig Daddy Dieselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868041775049514011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201777627038373510.post-79481351455323675282011-02-24T13:17:56.235-05:002011-02-24T13:17:56.235-05:00Sorry to read about the knee pain.

We feel your frustration and truly hope you can find a way to finish London.<br /><br />Thanks for the Congrats. We enjoyed meeting the Fort Lauderdale group, just wish we could have been celebrating Tony's 1st marathon finish. He had a great attitude and we were glad he was there to share stories and some laughs.<br /><br />We will miss your blog - keep us updated.

I find from Boca north, the roads are better, wider and with better maintained bike paths. <br /><br />I'll keep you suggestion in mind.

Sometimes I feel I am trying to entertain people and running out of material.<br /><br />but ultimately, I use it as a training log and since I would probably lose a real training log, I always know where to find this one....<br /><br />And I hope it wasn't my book that forced your blogging retirement.... :)ONEHOURIRONMANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618244547263041741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201777627038373510.post-12211482425935204952011-02-24T07:36:03.763-05:002011-02-24T07:36:03.763-05:00That is scary about the near crash, you two have s...That is scary about the near crash, you two have some mad skills to keep upright!! I have no desire to bike down here anymore, I'll wait until I get up north.<br /><br />I'm sorry about the knee, it'll work out but it'll take time. I was in your shoes this summer and pretty (okay REALLY) depressed about the whole thing. I really didn't know if I was going to be able to keep competing but time and good PT helped out a ton!<br /><br />Maybe toss an update on here every now and again and not totally kill the blog?Jen Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09911308307446870575noreply@blogger.com
