On April 11th, I walked in the MS Walk for my friend Robyn. It was a beautiful day and a nice 6 miles along Plymouth, MA. While we were walking our group was talking about what was sore. For me it was weird. It was pain that felt like a shin splint, but on the outside of my right ankle.
All last week I could feel it but it felt like the muscle. I just took it easy and figured it would go away.
This week, it started getting even worse. It was swollen and got a bruise right on my ankle. I figured that if I called the doctor, all they would say would be take it easy, take Advil, and use ice. So I didn't call.
It was pretty bad this morning. I finally called and asked for the nurse. She told me to come in because it could be a stress fracture. I saw the doctor and she said the same thing. She sent me for an xray. I'm STILL waiting to hear back!
I left the xray place at noon. I called the doctors office at 4:30 and they were still waiting on the radiology report. So no news yet.
The doctor wrapped it in an Ace Bandage and that helps a little, but now the swelling is all near my toes and its all puffy! And she told me to get crutches and stay off of it either way for a few days.
Now it is just a waiting game. Lucky me! I wouldn't be surpised if it is broken. I'm just injury prone. But yeah, I might have broken my ankle WALKING!

Saturday, April 17, 2010
Can't believe that it has been a few weeks since I've logged in. Been busy. Work is still crazy. Home is getting more and more settled. Still working out a few times a week and I love it.
I am starting up the couch to 5K again in just over a week. I can't wait for that. I have 32 people signed up to go! It'll be fun. I want to try on my own this week to get some practice in before I have to go with everyone.
Right now my cell phone isn't working. It refuses to take a charge. I don't know if it is the phone, the battery or the charger. My mom has the same phone, so I'm going to her house today to see what's up. If not, I'll be at the Verizon store! :(
I'm hoping tomorrow has better weather. I'd like to get out and start running. Then I'd have an excuse not to work from home. I have a pretty big pile I brought home that I really don't want to work on, but I should. But I'd really like to enjoy the weekend too.
Well, time for me to get moving. Need to go shower to get to mom's.
Ciao!
