    Oh Dave, I was so hoping you were going to be able to say "I told you so" to all of us. :( But, Thank goodness you listened to us (and your body.....finally) and they figured out what was happening BEFORE something worse occurred. My daughter had a similar scare last year except she was also in severe pain every time she breathed in or out, but at 20, she was sure it wasn't anything serious. When my husband went up to visit, he insisted she go to the ER, where she got to meet all kinds of nice people like you did. (She was doing homework on her laptop between Dr visits believe it or not). She had at least 3 clots, including one about to break and create a far worse disaster. This story does have a happy ending. She is now a perfectly healthy, wonderful, obnoxious (normal) 21 year old. Of course she is a little younger than you, but the treatment was relatively short and the restrictions were not as bad or as long as she first expected. (She can tell you some hilarious stories though about getting a nosebleed while on bloodthinners.....think crime scene in a dorm room.) Listen to your own doctors, but I am sure we will see you back adding miles soon.

    4.5 mile run/walk. Definitely into giving up bonus miles to Dave and whoever else needs it. And I don't do that often for coworkers with my PTO hours :neutral: You guys are nicer.

    I love the bonus mile idea! Of course I am not exactly in danger of having any bonus miles this month, but maybe this will be the motivation I need to get moving again. I've moved 6 miles since my last update which puts me at 60 and just on the edge of green.

    Anyone with bonus miles to donate please post what you're donating and Holli and I will move them for you. I guess we'll split them evenly between Dave and Lovemyalex. We love you guys and hope you are back to normal soon. <3<3<3

    @dave So gad you went. All the walking around they made you do, does count as miles :):p@sufferlandrian, yup Dean, the miles are really piling up. I hope he lets me come back to do the TDF. Made goal today, so I am going to hog up some bonus miles. I like this Grand Tour challenge. Gets me out every day to ride, instead of thinking about it. I have 500 miles on the new bike already. Its starting to look like a ridden bike, I got the newness off. This is the earliest I have hit goal in quite a while.

    05/15 - 9.0 miles cycling (Giro Challenge stage 7)
    05/16 - 13.0 miles cycling (Giro Challenge stage 8)
    05/17 - 13.0 miles cycling (Giro Challenge stage 9)
    05/18 - 2.0 miles walking (Giro Chalenge rest day)
    05/19 - 2.0 miles walking
    05/19 - 8.0 miles cycling (Giro Challenge stage 10)
    05/20 - 2.0 mies walking
    05/20 - 11.0 miles cycling (Giro Challenge stage 11)

    Total: 212.0 miles

    @Dave: I am so glad you are here to tell us about what is going on. You are very fortunate as I am sure you know. And you will master the Coumadin/ Warafin. My dad has been on it for a long time and he has managed it well. I know you will too.

    May 20: 10 miles of walking 4 and running 6
    TTD: 189.15 miles

    10 on the ex bike before work. That was all I did cuz I ran my tail at work, cleaned for the bachelor friend and then brought my 2 yr old grandson home with me, did all with a nasty headache!
    If we donate miles we must just stay at goal on our tickers right? I will change mine back when I know what we are doing!

    @vhuber - No dropping your goal to make bonus miles. Dave wouldn't accept that. :smile:

    @Chris - It was OK. I was going downhill at about 30 mph and the bear wasn't really into fast food. He was more interested in organic unprocessed food. :laugh:

    Dean, I'm sorry, I totally missed this...I laughed out loud! FOOMCF!!! It made my evening!

    SPREADSHEET UPDATED TO HERE

    See (but not edit) the
    spreadsheet here:

    =============================

    Congratulations to ANACONDA469 on making GOAL today!! :drinker:

    To everyone wanting to donate miles, please indicate in every post the number of miles you are donating each day, and I will split them up, evenly, between Dave and LoveMyAlex (unless they tell me they don't want me to do that). You will need to leave your own tickers at your 100% of your goal, but not over goal... so, @vhuber, yes, lower your ticker back to 150 miles, and I have you down for donating 15 today. Sound good, everyone?

    So now I really need to get it going so I have those bonus miles to share. :) Went to visit my college student yesterday and help her make her apartment more homey. She now has a small rug, a bookcase and a bedframe (the bedframe needs some work, but it'll do for a few more days.) Plus we put down some nonskid pads to keep her couch from walking across the Also walked to the grocery store for a small restock and then walked down the street to get dinner. Almost want to go back to a college town myself, nice to be able to get most everything I need without having to get in the car and drive.

    Added 4.25 miles May total 76.5 miles
