Ow Tri Girl! Hope you heal up quick.Sounds like you made the right decision though.
It was a perfect day for running here (except for the little yappy dogs, one of whom ran all the way across a four-lane highway with its owner chasing after it...). I was bummed to miss the Columbus Marathon this year, but it was hard to be too sad on such a beautiful day (especially since I didn't have to get out of bed before daylight and stand around in the freezing cold). I did the 9-mile loop again right at a 10 mm pace. The treatments are really loosening up my low back, which is some long standing stuff, and the numbness in my legs is improving too. Fingers crossed...

Nice run out there today, Oak! 10mm's are impressive! Crossing my fingers, too, that you're on the road to no more numbness!!

I'm sorry, Tri Girl. I hope you feel better soon!
No runs this weekend for me. Yesterday was a much needed day off. I was supposed to run today, but I had plans with an old friend that ran long. By the time I got home, I had laundry to do and dinner to make. I have a run planned for tomorrow though.Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

My brother lives on the route of the Columbus marathon and was whining about the inconvenience... My suggestion was that if he starts a couch to 5k now, he'll have plenty of time to build up to running it next year (at least the half). He's not sold on that plan! But I'm (tentatively) planning on doing it next year, not sure if the half or whole shebang, what with a free place to stay and all. Although I can foresee a potential problem, as he lives around mile 6 or so, and I could well be feeling like stopping at that point...
Anyway, this morning was about 7 miles, and I saw (barely) a lot of bike commuters without lights in the pre-dawn darkness. Decent bikes, helmets, and some with reflective gear, but no lights-- what are they thinking?
