Personal:
Married to Elizabeth (she got me running in 2003). We have three boys, Lucas (12) , Sam (8) and Ollie (5).
Many years ago, I read that the AVERAGE male is capable of a 2:40 marathon. I decided to test that theory. I began running in 2003 with Top of Utah as my first marathon (4:24). I need 3 more minutes.

The bleeding has stopped! It is now a gnarly looking scab. I'm excited to be done with the bandages. One more week until my post-op with the Doctor then I should be cleared for non-impact things such as pool running.
Tried to go cold turkey off the oxycodone. 24-hours later my leg hurt too much to work, so I'm back on the juice and back at 100%. I'll probably try again with high amounts (800 mg) of ibuprofen this weekend.
Also, more blood work today to see how the infection is doing.
