Congratulations, Betty!
It's good to see you back and your surgery (obviously) did not set you back so much. I am sure you love to run even more without the constant pain.
I have been a slacker with the snow and cold weather - haven't done longer than 4mi in the last 3 months... I am going for a long run this weekend, and next weekend have a half marathon in Atlanta... Needless to say, I don't think I will be able to run most of it.
