Ran early morning run with alana. Getting caught up on the blog - been awhile - I will just back log miles at this point. Since my accident from last saturday, my chest on the right side still really hurts for pushing or lifting. couldn't talk on the run this morning, but it was so nice to be in sync with alana's foot steps and have our peace of mind before diving into the busy day. I really love running.

Went to run 10 miles with the girls. Pain was so great in my chest I turned back. Had a hard time driving home. Finally sunday morning I went into the doctor. Have been really struggling with pain especially at night while lying down. I had broken a rib - upper right chest. Most likely cracked it in my fall last week, then snapped a clean break after lifting a bag of potatoes. I am now resting and recovering. Pain medication is helping. St. George Marathon is in 6 days. I won't be going down with my running crew, which makes me sad. However, I love living in God's plan and am curious as to what I may learn and grow from while being forced to rest, reflect and heal. I am so grateful for my friends and family to lift me up at this time.
