Well its been over a week since i ran for the first time in 12 weeks or so. Tonight felt better. I did one and ones on the dreadmill. 20 minutes worth. so that’s like what….10 minutes of running. Probably better than the 53 min i did last week. I sometimes wonder where the hell my brain is….lol. Anyways, it felt good. Weight training is going awesome. Getting super strong. Baby steps. Tomorrow is bi’s and tri’s with some swimming.
I Ran!……woohoo.
how did it feel? not sure. It felt ok. No real pain while running , or after. A little uncomfortableness. But, the leg turn over felt ok and the knee didn’t seem to give much grief. Here’s a link to my run. First of hopefully a lifetimes worth.

Well I have been given the ok to “attempt” running again. Well, more accurately jogging. So tonight at 6:30 I will be at a track an attempt an easy jog around the track. I am still not too sure. Knee doesn’t’ feel 100%, but then again, I’m not going to be running at 100% am I. So I will try a couple of easy laps of the track and go from there. Still doing lots of strength training and swimming.
Well, not really. But it sure is frustrating. Especially with this great weather. My friends are out running. I drive down the street and see people running all over the place. SO NOT FAIR!!
So rehab is going ok. I’m doing some exercises twice a day. Swimming and i just started with biking. I did 20 minutes Friday. Should make 30 tomorrow.
I was interviewed by Kevin Patrick from endurance Planet.com yesterday. It’s titled “A different kind of addiction”
We discussed my path from Cancer To Alcohol to endurance running. Have a listen!
