Or how about a "no" run this week? A sprained ankle isn't the way to go. Ice it and keep it elevated. Running will only enhance it, and not in a desirable way. Take it easy, man.

lol. That's funny. A 4 point Waiver. No. Ask you recruiter to let you re-take the test. That's like losing the superbowl and asking for a 7 point waiver. No free touchdowns.
