My running dreams for this year are over
A lot of you already know this, but for those of you who don't--I've had to say a sad, sad good-bye to my marathon hopes for this year. Remember that half-marathon I did? Well, I bought a new pair of shoes a week or so before that, and apparently they were defective (shoes can be defective?!??) and after putting 50-60 miles on them, they created a stress fracture in my shin. Nice, huh? The upside is that my foot has healed from the foot-smashing incident. Downside? The doctor said there is nothing I could do for this except give it 6-9 months off of any sort of impact sport. What a letdown! I had been working really hard and consistently and now I don't have anything to show for it. Who knew something that was supposed to make you feel good could be so depressing?

Oh Carrie Im sorry! That really stinks! I know you were working really hard. But think of it this way, you look great from all your hard work!!
Sad! You are still awesome though!
Hey Carrie,
This is Rebecca (Reid)Lynn. I found your blog off of Lisa's site, I hope you don't mind. It's been a few years since we all hung out in Columbia, but I really enjoyed those times.
I can't believe how grown up Tate is and I never got to meet Rylan. He's a cutie.
Sorry to hear about your marathon training. That's awesome you were training for it. I was just excited to get on the tread mill yesterday for 20 min--I won't tell you how long it had been before that! (:
Carrie! After all your hard work!! That is sooo crappy. I'm sorry. Your motivation is what got me running again! That is really a bad deal. Maybe you could take up swimming? I've started swimming again, and it is TOUGH! I need to give you a call later-
