Last year at the Women's 5K Graduation Run I pulled a calf muscle really bad. I developed a blood clot from that. Listen to your doctor and when he says it's OK to run, start slow and rebuild. You can come back. Listen to your body and when it tells you to slow down, do it. You can end up hurting yourself really bad if you don't heal properly. There will always be another race and another day to run.
Have a great holiday weekend!

I, too, was all geared up to start training/running, but have a torn cartilage that I must have surgery on. I guess I will have to wait until next time around? Or any suggestions?

Not to worry. There are usually any number of us getting over an injury. Everyone runs at the pace that is best for them.

I will be out of town this weekend so I will not be able to go the the one at Stanky Creek. I would love to try and make any other weekend trail run that I can. My only dilema is this... I usually only run about 4 miles max...I guess I should train more to run closer to 5 or 6 miles to prepare for the trails. I have ran 6 miles on the Wolfriver Trails and loved every minute of it but I got an over use injury on my upper quad/ groin area. I will be trying to build up my miles in the next few weeks so I can keep up with you guys.

There is a group meeting at Stanky Creek on Saturday (May 23) for a trail run that has been postponed twice due to weather so we are running no matter what.
You are welcome to join us. 6:30 AM for an 8 mile loop and then at 8:00AM we are doing a 2 mile run/walk for people who want to try trail running out. All are welcome. DJ Watson
