…to tape to my back because I FINALLY got the green light to start running again yesterday. I truly don’t know which was worse – the pain of the injuries or the excruciating waiting for them to heal. Now my biggest challenge is to start out slow and easy. I really don’t do slow and easy. I think I suffer from restless spirit syndrome. I’m fidgeting as I write this. The strange paradox is, however, that I sometimes also procrastinate.

I did ask the doctor about the Nike 10k race coming up the end of October and it looks like I’ll be cleared for that as long as I stay healthy. So something to look forward to. And in my immediate future I’m having breakfast with a friend which is a very nice way to start a Friday, especially this Friday.
