Another one bites the dust

We're sorry for the lack of updates these past two weeks. Things have gotten a little crazy...
With generals coming up September 10, we were both hard at work, reading articles all day and night. Pam was training hard, running 2 hours and 45 minutes two weekends ago, and Sarah continues to work at strengthening her hip by aqua jogging and biking.
Last week after track, Pam decided it would be a fantastic idea to ride Jeff's skateboard from her car to her front door, and as she reached the door step, the board somehow flew out in front of her, sending Pam flying backwards and landing on her elbow.
So now Pam has a broken arm, which means no typing and lots of painkillers- so she's had to postpone generals- as well as no sweating or arm bending- so basically, no marathon.
We are both so sad that we wont be running Nike together, but think it's a wiser decision that we recover from our injuries. As we mentioned in our last entry, Sarah will be running in Hawaii in December, and Pam is going to try to start running again when her cast comes off (about 5 weeks), in hopes of doing an event in 2008.
Keep reading our blog for updates- even with these setbacks, we plan to continue training and blogging. And please send Sarah luck as she completes her exam in five short days!

Um... ow. No wonder Kelly wasn't allowed to do even simple, but "dangerous," without her coach yelling at her about injury...
