Well, I'm 8 days into 2009...and not one single run attributed to it.
Why? Well, it all started with ... INJURY! Yes, after my milestone-breaking run, my ankle pain returned with a vengeance. It's only finally subsided in the past 2 or 3 days, but I'm taking some extra time off to make sure it needs the rest that's required.
Next, if I could run I would, but there are some things you can't control. Like life. Christine has been diagnosed with pregnancy-induced high blood pressure, which means she's been put on bed rest for awhile. This means that your's truly is responsible for watching our DD, and caring for Christine since she's not allowed to get out of bed, save for bio breaks and food.
Thankfully, my employer and my boss is VERY understanding and has allowed me to work most days from home so that I can take care of our daughter.
All the running around hasn't given me much time or energy for running...so maybe it's all a blessing in some sort of disguise that I have to put running on the backburner until life straightens itself out which will allow my ankle to get better.
So we'll see when I'm able to get Mile 1 in...but everything that life has thrown at us so far has been awesome, so I wouldn't give it up for anything.
