Confessions of a Non-Compliant Patient

Tomorrow will be two weeks since I sprained my foot.  I told myself that I would not run until it didn't hurt anymore.  I told myself I would cross train, and otherwise follow the advice I give patients every day to rest and let the injury heal.

Well, that lasted for about a day.  With the cool mornings we had last week, I couldn't help myself.  I did go out and run between 3-6 miles nearly every day.  Fortunately, each day my foot felt a little better.  It still hurts at times, but by and large, I think it is pretty much healed.  Good thing, too, because I don't think I could have tolerated myself as a patient much longer!
