Taking a break from #running after breaking my leg on this morning's run. Fractured my fibula, damaged the soft tissue.
Demotivating.

@SecondJon that would put you out of commision regardless of your spirits.. sorry man.. hope it heals soon and well.
Sounds rough.. but hey at least you get an excuse to take it easy for a while :)
3 months and a few days after breaking my leg and I've just completed the first week of marathon training. #running is slow and a little painful, but great to be out there again.

Broke a bone, tore soft tissue, displaced another bone. Needed surgery and was under general anesthetic only 28 hours after the initial injury yesterday.
Amazing health care we have in America, but quite a bill....using up a lot of deductible all at once here.
My nerve block hasn't worn off yet so I feel fine now, but am having a hard time going to sleep, dreading waking up in a world of pain.
Recovery is 3 months until I can re start marathon training for my first marathon in October, which they think I'll be able to run. If they're right, it'll be a good recovery and a great story for my first marathon.
Taking some time off work... and maybe more as short term disability... I generally push myself too hard and given the option with this most severe injury /health situation ever, maybe I should take advantage of the time to recover better.
