I need a group injury update!
Guys, I am working 24/7 and can't find time to log on every day, much less dig through 40 posts for the latest update. Can I get some updates on my friends' injuries, please?
Sara and Holly, what's the status of your doctors' visits, specialists, surgeries, therapies, recoveries, and -- most importantly -- CMM prognosis? (not really most importantly) Any backup plans to run the half, come for support and free beer?
And Omi, how is your knee? Was it all better the next day? I hope so!
I see a headline on Gwen, I'll check it out and see how she's recovering.
I'm sending good thoughts and "get healthy" vibes to you all!!
P.S. Is Jerry still alive??? Is anyone e-mailing him to be sure he didn't kidnap Minnie at Disneyland and skip the country? This is weird, going so long without hearing from him. And how the heck is he still in third place?

Geez, we have a lot of injuries huh? Maybe we need an MRP - Medical Rehab Platoon...

P.S. Anyone else's injuries I have missed, please let me know! Len, wasn't your ankle bothering you? Is it all better?
I'm not running this $#@$#@ CMM by myself! Jimmy doesn't count. He'll be so far ahead, it will be like he's not there. At least until the finish line.

I just emailed Jerry and told him that Jimmy had passed him in the postings ranking. Maybe that'll bring him back to defend his honor.

Nita-mosquita (Sorry, it's the only rhyme I could come up with on short notice!)
Holly's in Italy. She has a lateral tear in her hip cartilage. She'll need surgery when she comes back.
I'm in New Jersey grading papers (as you can tell by reading this post. Clearly I'm grading papers if I'm surfing the net). I have probable stress fractures in both shins and an appointment with a sports med guy next Thursday who will actually give me a diagnosis I can trust. Sadly, this means I'm out of the full. Which isn't a big deal, since you'd be so far ahead of me anyway. I'm still coming to Nashville, though, and I think Holly's planning to as well. I'll just be handing out cookies.
Lee is fine and running the half. While tossing possums, apparently. No relation to tossing cookies.
Um, Toby. He's fine too, ran some obscene amount of mileage over the weekend. And then biked twice that. Unrelated to CMM, but I thought I'd throw that in there too. (You know he got hit by a car on his bike, right?)

I have no current injuries, just the usual aches and pains. Jerry is too busy to talk and I believe Holly is in Italy.

Of course I'm fine! I was never injured in the 1st place! What about Gwen? She's got a rad neck brace on and gradually recovering.

Re: I need a group injury update!
Jimmy is not injured. All the others out there seem to be recovering well. Holly and Sara are the ones that I would think are going to have the biggest issues with the CMM. Jesus said he would drive over to Biloxi and link up with me for a road trip to Nashville. Okay he didn't say that but he should. I would love to throw some beers back with that guy. And my leave was approved to go to the race in Decatur so bring th Shiner out for a good after race drink. In all honesty I ususally drink about 2 but with good company and beer I might dabble a bit more.

Re: I need a group injury update!
Jimmy, leave it to you to take advantage of Jerry's busy-ness at work to pass him...
I just registered for Decatur, so I'll bring the Shiner for the BBQ post-race. Don't worry, I can't drink more than two and then have to drive home. However, if I can get my husband to come with me and drive me home...  Kevyn is in for sure too. Should be fun. Assuming I don't trip on a cow patty and break my ankle before CMM.
Thanks for the updates, everyone. Sara, it would be awesome if you and/or Holly could still do the half with Lee at least. But I am thrilled you'll be there with us either way. Seriously, what's a four-hour run, considering we'll be there a couple or three days? Looking forward to the reunion!
P.S. Obviously it would take getting hit by a train to keep Toby down. WTH? Is he a real person?

Re: I need a group injury update!
Hi there Nita
That dam knee still hurts. Didn't run yesterday, didn't run today (had some stuff to do and even if had had wanted to I couldn't since the sucker still hurts). It needs to go now and I need to start running again, especially since the snow is disappearing. It stinks. I'm just hoping I wake up and the pain be gone. Keep your fingers crossed. I hope that all the other sore and injured people get better soon.
PS don't work too hard.
