Guess Who's Back

0.60 Miles Easy - 4:58 Minutes - 8:19 Pace

Well, I wouldn't say back. Basically I am testing it out, I don't think it's right, and neither does the doc, but he says surgery is no a sure thing, so lets try it out first. As a matter of fact, he said somewhere in the conversation, "may never be able to run, or be active for the rest of your life". Talk about sweatin bullets, holy crap, I feel like Bo Jackson, without all the fame, money, professional stage....you get the point. So, I am going to try it for a few weeks and see how it feels.

I started on the soccer field near my place, I figured grass is a good place to start. Three times around the field, to be exact. It actually felt good, all the little pains and weird feelings I have been having in my knee were not there. However, the rest of my body hurt, from inactivity, and, oh yeah, I am very out of shape, that .6 miles was not as easy as I thought it was going to be.

Either way, it did feel good to run again, I am going to head to the soccer field again tomorrow and run a mile or some, just take it easy for a couple of weeks and feel it out.
