Saturday Jan 14th I went for my first run. I didn't have high expectations, and ended up shocking myself by doing 1 mile. It felt so good. I struggled weeks 3-5 (post surgery)with really bad back pain and even walking short distances was very painful. Thus, I had no hope to running anytime soon. However, luck jumped in and week 6 was pain-free. I'm hoping it stays that way!
Next race is Satuday Feb 11th, Campbell Valentine Fun Run 5K.
After that I'll do the stake 5k on Sat feb 25th.
My goal for 2012 is to do a 5k every quarter. First quarter is taken care of. Second quarter will be the "Sweatin' for Sammy 5k" that I helped out with last year. Third quarter is still open (hoping for a run in San Francisco...another dream of mine) and Final quarter will be the San Jose Turkey Trot in november. Should be a fun year!
