A small bump in the road...

Well, sorry it's been so long between updates. I banged up my knee pretty good last week and took a little time off from running. Nothing serious but I took a header at home running to get the phone. There was a suitcase in the way as I came around the corner! I slammed pretty good into the carpet with my knee. I just laid there for a few seconds hoping nothing was broken. But my knee was scraped up pretty bad and for those of you who have ever had a scrape on your knee like that know, it doesn't heal very quickly. I tried to run the next day but it hurt too much so I missed my weekend run last week.

So after some cross training it was back on the horse this weekend. I hit my long run of 8.5 miles today. Felt pretty good. I've also put another race on the schedule for January. It's a 15k in Raynham, MA. I'm just hoping the weather cooperates.

And as always, it's getting late in the year for those tax deductions....remember to help me towards my goal and donate at www.rundfmc.org/waydem2009
