Boise, ID 1:30 pm Pace: 8:15 I'm back baby!!! Well, not really. I crashed and burned three weeks ago and have been sitting it out since. After a week of doing nothing but sitting with my foot in an ice bucket, I broke out the excercise bike and started riding it for two hours a day. I also continued lifting at lunchtime every day, hoping to keep my fitness up. So I went out today, expecting to go maybe a mile or so. My daughter rode her bike along side. My foot felt pretty good and I think the pedaling helped. I felt like I was going a lot slower than I was. I had to take it really easy around the corners -- I probably looked like I was running with a full diaper whenever I turned. Anyway, I'm running again and none too soon. I've got a marathon to train for. Just have to remember not to overdo it too soon.
