Good News

I had my last physical therapy appointment yesterday! I ran for 15 minutes with no pain. So they said I was good to go. This morning I ran at the gym for 20 minutes and it felt great!....hard, but great! At about 12 minutes into my run I started to wonder why I liked running so much. But when it was all over I was breathing hard and sweaty and it just felt so great. I have not had a workout like that in 3 months! I am so glad that trial is over.

I think it's been about 3 months since I've gone running, only I'm not the one with the fractured hip.

That's great news! Good job being obedient to the dr.'s orders, it all paid off in the end!

You are one dedicated girl! We are so glad that your hip is healed and you can run again. However,it's abit hard to understand the need to keep running. I guess some of us would just love an excuse not to feel guilty about not doing it. You are the one who gets to enjoy the results!

Let's meet at a race somewhere and run it together, only now that you're up and running, I'm not. Give me until this fall. I'm glad you're all better. Not many things worse than being stuck with an injury.
