So the good news is that I may yet be able to run a marathon this year. The not-so-exciting-but good-for-my-injury-healing-process news is that it will likley be in October, almost exactly one year after I pledged to run a marathon in the first place.
Essentially, I must start over. I'm too rested (and not healed enough) to pick up training in order to run in San Diego in June. The next avaliable races are in the fall.
So what does this mean?

Pro: I get rest up stress-free
Con: I get resetless while resting

Pro: I can start running slowly with short distances
Con: Slow running is frustrating

Pro: I'll stay in shape this summer
Con: Bye-bye Friday nights (again)

Pro: Running in warmer weather loosens muscles
Con: Longest distances scheduled for hot & humid August/September

Well, we've done extreme cold. Let's see what the heat does for us.
