Just found out today that my ACL, as the doctor described, exploded. Since I've already registered for the Disney Marathon in January I'm going to try to continue training and then have the patella tendon graft surgery afterward. I'm particularly bummed that I won't be able to do the Tough Mudder in October (since clearly I'm not).

What sucks the most is the way I injured it. Last play of a softball double-header I had to make a throw from Left-Center to Home. Just as I released the ball, I felt/heard to crunch/pops and knew my knee was fubar'd. I really didn't want to play because I had just ran 20 miles, but the team was short a player.
