"Plagued By Injuries"

I'm like that athlete with superstar potential whose career never really takes off because they're "plagued by injuries." I'm the Brian Bosworth of running.

This morning, less than half-way through my run, my left ankle gave me a sharp pain. I tried to keep going for a little while, but it eventually became so bad that I had to cut my run short. And by "cut short" I mean that I had less running time, not that I was out any less, because it took me damn near an hour to hobble the mile or so I was from home, thus disrupting my entire morning schedule and making me late for work.

And to all my compassionate neighbors who were driving off to work and school at 6:30 this morning? Thanks so much for offering a limping lady a ride home. As a reward, you will all find Hillary Clinton campaign signs in your Republican yards in the morning.

So as of now, my joints? YOU ARE ON NOTICE

Hopefully your luck with turn with the running. If not, perhaps water aerobics? Or just plain swimming?
