I am disappointed beyond words.
The hip isn't appreciably better.
I haven't run in over 3 weeks. Just trotting a few steps is painful.
There's no way I can run the Boston Marathon.
I need a new goal: a spring olympic distance triathlon?

I know you are disappointed, but if you don't take care of yourself, you won't be able to run any other marathons...
Sorry to hear that...just focus on healing!
I am sorry Doc, truly sorry. Take this time to get yourself healed and ready for another run. Be thankful that you will be able to run again. You have so much to be proud of and have accomplised so much. Hang in there!
I am so sorry. I KNOW how painful it is to give up the sport you love, even if just for one event. I hope you recover quickly.
