Did you wrap it? My brother broke ribs a few times and swore by wrapping his chest so that he could go back in the kitchen, where he worked at that point.
No wrap. I don’t even know what I did to it. I woke up with it the day after the Innings Festival. I don’t think it’s broken. But one rib really hurts when I press on it or move a certain way like reaching that arm up. It hurts a little to lay on that side as well. Otherwise, it doesn’t hurt that bad or at all depending on my position. Maybe a few days without jostling it when I am running will help. I am hoping it is just a pulled muscle and not a bruised rib.
Needed to fetch something downtown after work, so I ran across both bridges in my city. Had been somewhat of a goal for me. Got so peckish(?) for orange juice that I stopped at my local store instead of running a bit farther to breaki my distance record.
Awesome! Are you running along a River? Must be gorgeous.
It’s a canal/river that runs through Gothenburg and Sweden.
A mix of running through fancy neighbourhoods and old industrial areas

Beautiful! Just a tad nicer than running along the East River in NYC

I reluctantly did not go for my run today. I am hoping this will help my rib pain. It was really hard to restrain myself from going. I feel off. I guess it really is an addiction.
Taking my walk. I am on mile 3. By the time I get home it should be close to 4 miles. Not as far as my 5 mile run but at least I don’t feel as guilty since I got some walking miles in.
Was hoping for a better time around 5 hrs but it was super muddy and slippery, very sapping. But it was good enough for 9th place my first top 10 finish 🎉

Great job!! Top ten is spectacular. You did an amazing run.
I took a chance and ran today. After doing yoga on Thursday my rib pain felt much better. This morning it was slightly there but I didn’t want to miss another run. I ran on the treadmill. I thought that might be easier on the ribs. I did 5 miles and so far so good. If I wake up in pain again tomorrow I will know why. But right now it is feeling fine.

I can't lie... If I got this time in last year's race it would have seen me outside the top 20 😂 but I'll take it.

This is good news! It's torture when we can't run for whatever reason. Fingers crossed you wake up feeling ok

That's great! How are you feeling?
The pain is definitely almost gone. I didn’t run on Sunday but plan to at some point today. So, overall I think it is basically healed. Thanks for asking. How are you doing?

I am doing OK. Had an interesting weekend, my 15 year old son had to have an emergency surgery on Saturday evening for a testicular torsion, he was in the most pain I've ever seen anyone in. Surgery went well and we were sent home around 1:30 am. My son is doing well.
Between that and the time change, I was pretty exhausted for my long run yesterday, but still got it in.

I am glad your son is ok. That must have been scary. I am sure you are exhausted. It’s great you were motivated to still run.
Oh man,hope he recovers quickly. I get a minor case of that sometimes during runs and it is brutal. It is like a really bad cramp. Can't imagine it staying until surgery could release it. Holy shit that must have been brutal
Had my first shot at a race this year, earlier today. Atlantic City, on the boardwalk. 5k. Really thought I would do better but I still PR'd, so am happy about that. Finished 19th overall and 5th in age group. (Small group running / 200) Flat race - which is why I thought I would go faster. Back half, my heart rate was in 180s and I know that means I need to get in better shape. I pushed like a mofo the last quarter, was almost to 200, which is not a number I want to go above at 48. I slowed to encourage a guy about my age who was walking with half a mile left. He gave me a big smile and thumbs up as he passed me with a hundred yards or so left. :( He was #4 in my age group and was appreciative of the support after. Nice to be able to help. I remember during my first half marathon that I was walking up the last hill for a short bit and a number of people encouraged me until I stopped being a wuss and started running (as much as I could) again

Good run mate 👍 awesome to slow and help, but there must have been a tiny amount of bitterness when he passed you? 😁
Nothing too hard this week, after last week's race and next weekends (much tougher) race I'm just on a nice little taper, ticking over.
Next weekends race involves going away for 2 nights with my cousin in the beautiful landscape of North Wales, cannot wait
