Either a bone bruise or a stress fracture on the left knee, according to the learned Dr. Smith. Now begins a tussle with my HMO to obtain an MRI.

Meanwhile, no running; light walking.
A contributing factor may have been my running gait: landing on the heel, feet too far forward.
From past experience, the greatest challenge now facing me will be to avoid putting on 20 pounds.

oh no! I hope it's nothing serious. I am hoping to stay injury free and run a sub 4 sometime next year.
Good for you, Steaks.
Given at least six weeks off, I'll be lucky to finish the Pasadena Half Marathon in mid-November.

One of the more motivating guys to have around you while injured in Aqua Coach Pete. A few years back he went through the mill w/ a hamstring injury, but came out smetlling like roses. Time to dust off those water wings

Looks like I'll be a member of Trout in Training.
