Plenty of time to get your race on. Get the injury right first otherwise you'll be missing a lot more time if you rush back too soon.

Hopefully though that was the "low point" and things will get better from here. Just be sure to stay busy with other stuff and don't get in a rut. The PT will take some time, so it's just a waiting game for now, unfortunately waiting sucks. As for HMT - I totally hope you get an awesome date with him! That will put such a good twist on this whole knee problem!!!M*J*Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14213075091985167893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25824302.post-10585827138857571992008-07-09T15:52:00.000-04:002008-07-09T15:52:00.000-04:00Oh jeez, I hope you get through this OK.
