I have a problem....I got injured (I think). I hurt my knee in a bike ride on Wednesday. I felt a sharp pain, almost a pop, but not really a pop. It's happened before and it only took a couple of days to get better. But it's been 2 days and I'm still having trouble putting pressure on that leg when my knee is bent (i.e. standing up from crouching or sitting).
What happens to these things when a teammate can't participate anymore? I'm going to try and get a workout i tomorrow morning, but I'm worried I'm going to be set more behind than I already am...
Ow ow ow. As Jen said:
The most important thing is your health. If you're injured, don't push it.
(Despite my cattle prod-related threats, this really is just a challenge! It's not a life-or-death situation.
)
Here are some options for you:
1
) If you want to drop out completely, your goals can be removed from the spreadsheet. You get to stay on as the Official Team Post Padding Cheerleader.
(Be forewarned that your team may ask you to wear a cheerleading outfit, and wave pom poms. But that's up to them. And if you choose to take pictures and post them in your team thread. Well, that's up to you.
)
2
) If you don't want to drop out but need some time to recover, we can prorate your goals. Take "time off" until you are better.
(Do not rush it.
) Then when you're ready to return, we can prorate your goals. For example, if you miss 15 days:
(15 days participation/30 days = 50%
), so your goals would be reset to 50% of their original value.
