| Since my last run I have really worked hard to get healthy and healed. In my life thats making a lot of changes but Ive done it! Ive kicked my liquid consumption, went to the Dr about my knee, (Im taking Diclofenac which has taken 99% of the pain away) and Ive stretched daily for my hamstring pull. I have ridden my stationary bike a few times, played soccer, baseball and woffelball with my kids without pain for the past 3 weeks. Ive come to the realization that I will never be a "real runner" like others on this blog, but I can still go out there and run and feel good about doing it. I can spend 15 min a day on the stationary bike and I can run a mile every day. I will find the time to do that for myself!
Overall I am feeling better, Im a little nervouse to try running again but I think Im ready. Tommorrow is the big day (as long as the weather holds up) :)

| I did it! I ran a mile this am. I felt like a ton of bricks. Every step was like running through knee deep mud. I could see where I needed to go to get to the .5 mile marker - I kept my eyes fixed on it and just kept trudging along. Made it there, turned and kept running back. I finished the mile, did a little walk cool down, then rode the bike inside. Finished with a great stretch. So far, no pain in knee or hamstring. Lungs hurt a little but thats because I havent used them in 2 months.

| My leg was a little tight Wednesday, so I didnt try running yesterday or today. But tomorrow we are heading to Vegas and I plan on running/walking with my sister in law there. Its amazing how fast muscle can turn to jiggle, but just after running once this week I can feel those muscles again (Im sore from running a mile - lol). But its a good sore!! By mid May I wont be singing "Watch it jiggle, see it wiggle" as I run.

| My leg is still doing pretty good. Had some pain this weekend in my knee from all the stairs and walking. Im so fatigued that I can hardly function at work. So no running - I need to ration my energy. I did ride the bike and had a great stretch this am.

| Still not feeling well (tired and sore throat) but needed to get out doors. Played baseball with my family then ran a mile.
