Running Accomplishments:

I started running when I moved to Oregon in 2008.  When I first started, I couldn't even run to the end of my block!  I made it my goal to just run a little bit further each time.  Not too much time went by before I realized how much I loved the sport of running.  I signed up for my first 5k in April 2009. I have loved watching my speed and distance increase as the years have gone by.

One meager mile.  A test run to see how the leg is doing after injections on Monday.  FELT GREAT!!  I would've kept going but was simple out of time as I had already been at the gym for an hour doing weights.  Sure hope this is the beginning of a new running plan!

Yay!
