    Injury Time

    Well with marathoning, it's only a matter of time until you get hurt through the months of training.

    And today is my time.

    I majorly sprained my right achilles. As with all injuries, I tweaked it on a short run and then forgot about it until a mile into my 13 miler this AM. Major bummer. And because I'm oh so smart and stubborn, I kept right on running even though I should know better.

    I got home 45 minutes ago and have already taken an anti-inflammatory and am icing. Any other suggestions? It hurts so much to stretch it because it's a tendon not a muscle.

    Thanks all!

    Soooo sorry, this sucks. Are you going to see someone about it?

    Please rest! And then rest some more. After that slowly start back.

    Best of luck.
