Injury time out

The last two weeks have been terrible? I have been unable to run due to the heel that I tore up during the Rock CF rivers half marathon. Ism almost ready to lace up the shoes again, another few days. It is amazing how much I actually look forward to my runs. I can not imagine how a professional deal with a major injury? I don't do injury very well The more I think about it I realize that at this age it will take longer to heal. Now what? I am going to have to deal with it, and make sure I take more care with my traing, Next major event is October. Detroit half marathon,another week an I start traing over, Low and slow. I need to increas my endurance and lower injury. It sucks to be old, but it beats the alternative. Take care and check back later Randy
