Well, I had plan on going 10 to 13 miles today but I had a little accident last night, my wife and I were doing the grocery shopping and I put a big bottle of cheese dip in the top part of the cart and not knowing there is a hole there the bottle fell to the floor and my toe got in the way... No cuts or stitches just a nice broken toe, I can barley walk and I tried to get up and run this morning but after about 10 steps I was down on my knees in major pain, so I am out of commission for a few days at least. If you run long enough I guess some strange things can happen!!!

Bummer!!!

Clay! what a bummer about the cheese dip, I've heard that stuff is bad for you! :)

Hope you're not laid up for too long.

Thanks for the kudos! It's so fun to have the support of many people! Some day Tom and I are going to actually meet you! We know Curtis, (by the way, how is he doing?) So sorry about the toe...OUCH! Sasha would probably say you shouldn't be buying that kind of rubbish anyway! (Even though I would guess that most of us do!)

I am so sorry to hear about your big toe. I wish you the best in your healing and I hope it is quick. Enough about the cheese dip being bad for you, you still have to enjoy some of the little pleasures in life.
