That's Going To Leave A Mark

This is a trail running NO-NO. Actually this is my son's ankle following a skateboard aerial trick gone bad. He landed just wrong and seperated a sub-bone in his foot, didn't actually break anything. I pulled out the cell phone in the ER because I knew he would want to see what it looked like at some point in the future. Oh to be young and to heal fast, he was in a cast for 4 weeks and doing some physical therapy now and will soon be back to full strength and back to the skateboarding, man I wish he would take up a safe hobby like trail running/ultramarathoning. He really has expressed interest in trail running and I hope he will take it up some day. Here is hoping you never look down at your foot after a misstep or slip and find a sight like this.

OUCH!!!!!!! Trail running has to be less hazardous than that!

You had asked about any future doubles, and I don't have any on my schedule until November, when you can do the Mountain Home Marathon in Arkansas and then the Route 66 in Tulsa the next day.

Hope your son's ankle heals real soon.
