Last Friday now serves as my personal running Groundhog Day. My foot saw it's shadow (or, rather, my doctor saw the shadow on my MRI that told him I had a stress fracture) and now it's six more weeks until I can run (or cycle). The prescription is for a a full length boot to stabilize my foot. On Friday, I went to Prosthetic Limbs-r-Us and tried on the boot. Mercifully, it didn't fit, but it let me know what I was facing. Of course it won't be the dandy, bright yellow boot (the Denver Boot, Chicago Style) pictured above, but that would sure be a conversation starter.
The pretty item shown just above will be my new friend for my six weeks of personal winter. My toes aren't quite that attractive. I think I will wear a sock with it.
