DUDE!! 2 in 6 weeks? YOU ARE INSANE!

When in December is it? And what are the typical temps in Memphis then?

Sunday, another 2.2 mile walk with DH. I cried for most of it, the pain is just still so . Right now, I wonder why I went through with the excruciating surgery. I know I'm not a patient patient, but honestly ... baby steps are so hard .. I WANT TO RUN! Actually, I did "try" to run a little today .. ugh. It was ugly and painful. So I am back to walking. Small steps. It sucks.

I'm going to keep at it though. What I lack in athletic ability I make up for with tenacity .. I SHALL OVERCOME. This *WILL NOT* get me down, although it was so hard this morning when "joggers" ran past me as I walked .. I so wanted to trip 'em ! Not really. Good for them. Hopefully soon, I will join them. Maybe even beat them.

Less than 160 days until marathon day. We drove through downtown Tampa today and that's all I could think about. Running through those streets....I cannot wait.
