• Well as humbling as it was I have run my first mile in almost a month.  I got clearance from the Doc to run last Friday but decided to wait until today to give it a go and since it was raining and cold outside I decided to make it a dreadmill (Treadmill) day.  The BIG news of the day is that I had absolutely no pain at all!  I ran the random program for fifteen min and covered, what they said, 1.42 miles.

    After the run a buddy and I finished up our daily chest strength training.

    I will get stronger & faster each and every day.  Weymouth Woods watch out ’cause I’m on the comeback trail! Tomorrow will be a 3 mile run with the Tribe.

    I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. (Philippans 4:13 KJV)

  • Well in the spirit of keeping the blog updated I guess I better say something today.  In typical fashion I would like to write about all the awesome trail miles I put in along with all the road miles I am running with Weymouth Woods bearing down on me (Jan 19, 2013) hahah…..but that is not going to be the case this week, again!  I will share that I have put in about 20 miles on the elliptical last week, does that even count?

    Anyhow, last week I completed my bone scan now it’s time to wait for the radiologist to read and write a report on it then send it to my Dr for my appointment on Thursday.  Hopefully only good news will come out of this but we will see.  I am already committed to run the Army Ten Miler in late October so I hope I will get cleared for that.  If not I guess the wife and I will just have to go up there and enjoy the city without running since I have already booked and paid for our lodging.
