When I was released by my Doctor in mid April, I firmly believed I would be able to work my way back to distance running in a very short time.I've come to realize I was overly optimistic.
So far my only double digit run has been a 10 miler which put me away for two days and reminded me that too much too soon is too bad.
So I've resigned myself to the fact that to rebuild, I must gradually increase my mileage, get enough rest, lay off those damnable Cheez-Its (low fat or not) and listen to my body while it whispers instead of when it screams.
On a positive note, my training log shows a steady increase since April so I'm still planning on the Star City Half Marathon come November.

You and me both, Tim. Stay positive.
You ran many more miles than me in July...AND so far August too.
We'll get there...eventually!
(But you are WAY ahead of me mileage wise if that makes you feel any better! Hope it does!)
Muchas Gracias Amigas!
