Track and share your training!

Dailymile makes it easy to keep track of your workouts. Map your routes and share with a community of active people.

Just got my MRI results back today. It's not the stress fracture that I thought, instead it's a full-thickness tear of my acetabular labrum. Might require surgery- not sure yet.

Unfortunately- I won't be posting any runs on this forum any time soon. Everybody else I know has become a cyclist due to injuries, perhaps it's my turn.

    I really enjoyed the running and pushed my body further than it has ever gone before. I did all the training for a marathon, with 4 good runs over 20mi. I won't get the thrill of crossing the finish line after 26.2, but I know I was fully trained to do it. I hope to heal and try again, but this may take longer than I thought.

    I say start swimming and biking, so that by the time you are fully healed and ready to run again, you can just go straight to an Ironman! :0)

    Sorry to hear that, Morey. If you're interested in a weight routine, I would be glad to send you something (I was a personal trainer a while back). Good luck with the rehab.

    Thanks Chuck. I work at a health resort and receive plenty of advice from trainers and exercise physiologists.
