Running past

Article Abstract:

A painful heel injury ended one woman's joy of recreational running. Every Sunday she and a group of women friends would gather to run for an hour and then eat at a different home each week. It was running for relaxation and social interaction. Her injury ultimately led to her parting from the group.
