Back on my feet

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. After a few days of extra rest, I'm feeling much better. Better enough to head out for my long run today with just a slight modification of the plan.

The original plan was to run something in the 7-8 mile range. I wasn't sure about running that far coming off of some kind of bug, so I chose a route closer to 6.5miles to run, and followed it up with a 2 mile walk up and down the hill with the dogs. I still got the miles on my legs, but didn't push it too much. I think that was a reasonable compromise.

It was a beautiful fall day. Here's a photo I took with my phone at the turn point of my run.


I'm thankful to be feeling well enough to run again and to have this wonderful path so close to home. :-)

  8. I am jealous.....of the path that is. It is soooooo beautiful and reminds me of many of the routes I used to run when I lived in Kentucky.

    I am glad you are back on your feet!
