Well went to Dr. Petty in Texarcana, Texas. He gave me a cortisone injection in both ankles, as the two separate injury's just got worse. But good news is there is no damage and having to take off yet another day tomorrow I will be back on the road. I have to take antibiotics for 5 days then a light steriod pill for 30 days, I dont want this but I must complete this mission.
Thank You, Dr: Moore!
Dr: Timothy Moore who has never met me had his great Rotary Club make a huge donation then paid a very expensive bill at the doctors office here in Texarcana out of his own pocket!!! I will meet him as soon as I get home.
I learned a running lesson I didn't want to learn, but live, learn, and hold on to what you love with all you got. |

Well 16 miles today as the bruise on my right foot arch was just too much pain and getting worse. I felt the defect in the shoe arch when I put them on and ran 175 miles in them and shouldn't have. It will be close on shoes now as they haven't made them in 6 years, I try E-Bay everyday.
 SOOOOOOO I hate to but for the sake of the mission (To Finish) I will........TAKE A DAY OFF TOMMOROW!!!! 2/18. Start again, I hope, 2/19.
I am very Unhappy, Sad, Angry, Shocked, Bewildered and feeling sorry for my self. Did I leave anything out? I have to fix this before I hit the Rockies.
I finished today 14 miles short of Texas Border.

Well ran through a town called Stamps, Arkansas today and finished just past Lewisville. Not much to see so no pictures. A lot of the same thing so far, little towns, a patch of woods a few more small towns. Stopped at 23 5/10 miles today that felt like enough.Left leg is feeling much better but arch problem because of defect in arch in new pair of shoes caused severe arch pain and swelling, changed shoes and hope this goes away.
