Withdrawal from Florida Half-Ironman and others

I went ahead and withdrew from this race today and got a whopping $75 back. Im thinking this will be the last m-dot race I sign up for until I know for sure whether or not my body can handle the training as their withdrawal policy just sucks. I would rather have just transferred the fees to next year than lost $200.

I will probably be transferring the St. Anthony's fees with the $25 charge later this week. This will officially clear my schedule as the knee even with ZERO running in the last week, I mean a complete break no running no cycling and minimal swimming, only feels worse. The cold weather seems to bother it. Clearing the schedule completely removes the stress of feeling like I HAVE to train.

If anyone knows of a good distance athlete doctor in the Orlando or Jacksonville area please drop me an email as I feel dissatisfied with the progress and results of my previous treatment. 6 Ibuprofen a day seems like a band-aid and I have concern of the side effects to my stomach.
