I never imagined I would get 50 miles in a week.  I always thought it would be too hard.  Yet only after running about a month and a half since my injury I have done it.  Reading these blogs made it seem so attainable.  It is amazing how helpful this site has been for me mentally.  It has allowed me to realize what I can do if I only try....plus a few two-a-days mixed in.

Run - 7.15 - 7:59, 7:52, 7:47, 7:45, 7:47, 7:22, 7:31, 1:03 - 55:09 (7:42 avg.)

Congrats on 50 miles. Way to come back from that stress fracture.

Looking at your picture of you and your running partner, (are you in the blue or the red?), makes me wonder how you ever got an injury in the first place.

Thanks Bethany!

Kim - I would choose Superman. Apparently I ran over some Kryptonite one day. Still feel twinges sometimes. Maybe I should line my shoes in lead.
