Went to the doctor today who diagnosed me with having cracked either a rib or a couple of ribs. Been prescribed some panadeine forte and advised that it could take 4-6 weeks to heal properly and that I should probably cycle as opposed to run.
Then I spoke with Epi who advised that I couldn't do any more damage by running but to take it easy, so decided to go for a very quick pm run. Result: painful but not too bad, so will take it easy with no intervals or tempo runs at this stage. Right knee still quite sore but nothing a bit of ice won't fix.
Will be happy with a 50-60km week this week, thanks Epi for the advice.

Hope you'll have a speedy recovery.
I wish every doctor is like Epi !
OUCH!
Take it easy and listen to the Doc.
Hope it heals quickly (heels? - just trying to make something out of this without ribbing you too much ;-)!)
Sounds painful - I did this a few years a go and it wasn't fun. Hope it repairs quickly...
Thanks guys, Homo you're a shocker :).
