I just wanted to report I have a race tomorrow - just for fun and camaraderie, not for time. I have a fairly serious injury but I am allowed and able to run. I've done 2 runs a week the past few weeks and felt pretty good. It's five miles in the cold and ice!

Anyway, wish me luck! I still may need surgery but this is a nice reprieve. You guys have been helpful - I usually panic and eat carbs "just in case", but I am going to do this right!
