I RAN a quarter mile on the treadmill and I didn't re-injure myself. There is no need to do anything crazy yet but I will definitely need to put in some good miles next week in order to make a respectable showing at Ogden. Just for fun here is a breakdown of the 502 best marathon performances by country. The US has some catching up to do and Khalid Khannouchi from Morocco gets credit for 5 of the ten. Looks like this might have been updated at the end of 2008.
Here are the other 5 from the US:
