It's quite apparent that I am doomed, doomed, I say!  Two miles into my 8-miler this morning in the dark on neighborhood roads I rolled the same ankle I destroyed three weeks ago.  Not as bad as before, but enough to make me turn around and walk a bit before jogging easily back home - unreal!  Was running in the road facing traffic and a car approached - with its headlights in my eyes, I eased toward the curb and just happened to land where the asphalt was elevated a couple inches above the gutter - awesome!

Yikes! Scary story. Sorry about the ankle.
