Good news...but still resting!

Well, the good news is that there's NO fracture - just a very bad sprain. The doctor wants me to rest it for another week and focus on something else other than running. Thank goodness. The pain has been a little intense today and had other errands to do today that I rested instead. I also continued with Advil and ice!! Ice has been a VERY good friend. Once again, I pushed my work-out schedule again - 6 miles tommorow on the eliptical machine and another 6 miles on Sunday, which I will need to burn in order to eat some of the yummy State Fair stuff.

Make sure you rest that ankle of yours. Becareful of the time and energy you put in it!

That is indeed good news. Now, just watch it with the ibuprofen. A little goes a long way.

There must be something in the air - I got injured last Sunday, too. After reading about you and Lisa, I am convinced I better get in an get an xray.

Glad you went to the doc and got good news. I know the "resting" must be driving you crazy!

I'm glad it is only a sprain and you will recover quickly. Have a great time at the Great Minnesota Get Together! I will be in Hastings this weekend :) That is if I ever get off my butt and drive there!
