Really?!...

Things were going along great, so you know something had to happen. It did. Saturday, I was in Cresco on the bike trail doing my 3:45 bike. I was testing out my race setup. I was flying. It was such a great ride and such a great day. At mile 67 of 70, I come upon a dad and his 2 daughters. I slow up and let them know I am coming up behind them. They didnt hear me, so I said it again. They all scatter across the trail, so I said I will be passing on the left. Well him and his daughters move to the right. I started passing, when all of a sudden, one girl pulls back over to the left in front of me. I slowed down and then all of a sudden she slams on her brakes and I did as well. I couldn't get my feet unclipped and fell over. I got up and checked over my bike because I knew I was fine and wanted to make sure I didn't break anything. Everything appeared fine, so I started off again. Soon, my thumb started to hurt. By the time I rode the last 3 miles to my car, my thumb was very sore and could not use it. By the time I got back to my grandparents, I had thrown up because it hurt so bad. As of today, no fracture and not broke, but I do have a splint on it and it is still swollen pretty good. I can move it, but not hold anything with it. I did swim last night which didnt bother it enough to stop. Mostly it is just one of those mental set backs. I also decided today that I officially can not do the Dam to Dam. I just can't risk running that long of a distance that early returning to running and that close to 3 other big races. It is dissapointing and really kind of brings you down when you have been training so hard for something and then you are unable to do it. I have 1.5 weeks left before I can run again. I can't wait. I think that will really give me the boost I need to give me the hope that I can finish this season, but now that it is getting closer, I am getting nervous that my foot won't be healed and I am going to reinjure it and not be able to run for the rest of the year. It is stressing me out. Usually when I get this stressed, I run. Haha. Well, for now, I will keep up doing what I can. The warm weather helps.
