This weekend I had my first DNS due to injury. DNS = Did Not Start… as in, did not start a race. It’s runner language for not showing up or starting a race at all. Which is better than a lot of other options like…
DNF = Did Not Finish

Skipping a Marathon due to Injury
Mă face trist. and I realized it’s the first time in my running life that I wasn’t able to run a race due to injury!!
So on one hand I’m grateful that I’ve been so healthy and lucky up until this point. but I’m very bummed that I couldn’t run the long beach Marathon with my friend. and I’m sad I wasn’t full of endorphins and pizza viewing so numerous runners update Instagram with their Chicago Marathon finish times! It was very exciting and I’m pleased for everyone who had a good race! It made me want to be out there with them!
It’s alright to be sad and I’m honoring my feelings while trying to stay positive and focus on the silver linings.
I’m pleased that I didn’t try to push it and run a race injured. I’m thankful I didn’t try to run after I hurt my foot!! I get bonus offer points for being told it’s NOT a tension fracture and not so much as trying to go out for a few miles – because I was listening to my body. (Turns out it was worse than a tension fracture – it’s a complete fracture. Which I still don’t know how they missed on the x-ray.)
I spoke with Kristin (aka @StuftMama on IG) after the long beach Marathon yesterday. I was expected to run it with her! It was good to talk about the race and the course because I’ve run it a few times and love talking about running.
I considered going to the race to spectate, but chose that wouldn’t be a good idea. It’d be a lot of walking and time on my feet. I discovered that I was extra exhausted this weekend after just cleaning and errands in the boot. I purchased a lighter boot that hopefully will be simpler to lug around. and I don’t have the shoe lift to even out the height for my other shoe. (That’s also purchased and on the way.)
So I’m still on broken foot responsibility and have a lot to do in the way of healing and recovery. Doctor’s appointments and research into tools, gyms, best practices, etc.. has taken a lot of time too!
Now at least I have an official diagnosis so I can make a plan to heal and come back strong and healthy. I’m making a Countdown to Running calendar so I can keep my eyes on the prize!
Which leads me to the never have I ever game for Runners…
At some point yesterday I realized, this is the first time I’ve had to bail on a race because I was hurt!! and it reminded me of the never have I ever Game. I posted the first version to Instagram a while back and now there’s a new Edition. Chime in below or in Insta with how numerous you can drink to!
Never have I ever game Rules:
Someone says “Never have I ever _________” and fills in the blank with something fun, risky, random, odd, interesting or whatever you want.
If you have done it – you take a sip of your drink.
If you haven’t done it – you don’t take a sip.
For the Instagram edition just share how numerous you have done! and this is typically a drinking game (with adult beverages) but in an effort to be healthy I vote we sip some green juice or maybe coconut water?
