Bike Accident


On my way home from work yesterday I got hit by a car while riding my bike. Fortunately, I only ended up with a few scrapes and bruises and so far it looks like my bike is ok too. The photo above was taken before the accident!

Speaking of my bike it has been getting a good workout lately since I haven't been able to run for nearly 5 weeks now. According to my doctor I have tendinitis at my left groin. So I am starting my recovery now. I have been biking when I have alot of energy on the weekends and doing some short walks in the evening.

This non-running and recovery is much harder than running ultra-distances. I am trying to look at this setback as a new challenge. If I do it right maybe next summer I can run a 100 miler!
