That has got to change!!!!And it will . . .
My knee is coming along pretty well after the surgery (3 weeks ago yesterday). It was only just about 3 days ago that I could really feel improvement. Swelling down . .. . scar tissue doing it's thing.
I was in Chicago on Saturday and Sunday and ran about 2 miles down Michigan Avenue on Sunday morning at 7:30AM. It is why I run.
I am looking forward to getting back into shape. I think that my usual running 6 days a week is going to have to come to a sad close. With 2 knee surgeries now, ever present gray temples and thus far an extra 5 pounds - -'I am going to opt for 3 to 4 days a week.
I have been talking to God about what the "new normal" looks like for me.
For those of you who have followed my ups and downs over the last several years on this thing . . .you know that I need to be apart of something bigger than myself. I am just not sure what that thing is now. In the meantime (or today) . .I am going to get outside and let the cold January air burn my legs, sweat a little, and start the process of fitness again. And believe me . . .it is just as hard for me, as it is for the 20 million other people out there who have resolved the same thing.
This is what I have been listening to: JULIA STONE (covering Olivia Newton John's song)
