I think I have to "Shelf the idea"

Well, it's official, I won't be able to train for a long time.  I've been doing well for the last few days.  I've been able to work from home which has allowed me to keep my foot raised and rotate putting ice on it.  And it was feeling much better.  So well that I was jumping around on it yesterday and moving more and more.  There was a bit of pain when I twisted it towards me, but really, how often do we do that.

So this morning I went with my daughters to walk the dogs.  They usually take them for a 30-45min walk in the morning.  I figured that would allow me to see how it felt.  After about 15min, my ankle started hurting.  I was able to make it home, but now I can feel it swelling.  So maybe I should have taken my brace or at least wrapped it, but as it is, I'm have to say that my wife is right and I'll have to put this off for some time.

Still don't think I need to go back to the doctor, since I'm now saying I'm going to take it easy for a while.  But mark my words, I will run a marathon...but now I don't know when.
