That's it 14 days no running, doctor's orders. It was exactly like when you take your car to the mechanic because of one problem and they shake their head and point out a bunch of other stuff that you never even thought of and make you feel like a careless driver.
My lower back pain apparantly has more to do with a hip that is way out of wack and a blockage in the dorsal area of my spine and I may be developing arthritis in my hip and two discs in my spine. So I can't jog or do any sports involving running untill my next check up and if there are still problems I will have to get an x-ray. In the mean time I can swim and take Celebrex 200 and Chondrosulf 400 and keep on stretching.
I don't know if you can prepare for a marathon doing only swimming and biking and maybe some water jogging at a key stage in the preparation but we shall see. If I can still participate in the marathon the goal will be to participate and finish if possible and not run the whole thing but walk for part of it.
