Flew to Michigan this morning.  60 minutes on the Stationary bike and played in the pool with my coworkers.  We were working on conquering (my boss and I) our fear up jumping up on stuff.

We went out to dinner in Detroit at a Greek restaurant.  My stomach was feeling blech afterwards, so did an hour on the elliptical and 20 minutes on the stationary bike to work gas and crappy feelings out of my system.

Today was the day to try running without the boot.  I put on the brace

and started out with the dog.  It took a while of walking to get my sea

legs back, but then started jogging.  I decided to be safe and just

run/walk around my condo complex and had to call it quits after 2

miles.  Too much pain in the ankle - but it is actually in the anterior

tibialis tendon which started indicating it was injured as the posterior

tibialis tendon started healing.  Made the decision that I could not do

the Buffalo Run.  Boo Hoo!
