The good, the bad and the ugly

Good:
It's good to be back.

It's good to wear SHOES again.

It's good to walk again.

Bad:
It's bad that I still can't run; 2 more weeks before I can run - and then I can only run 1-2 miles at a time. My running can re-commence one week before the Peachtree Road Race, the 10k I had been working toward for so long. Sad. Very sad.

Ugly:
I will now suck so much worse than I ever imagined in this race.

Such is life.

I started back on the elliptical Monday. That's all I can really do for now.

There will be other Peachtrees. Trust me on this one!
Last year's "walk" was not nearly as humiliating as I had presumed it would be. My husband and I held hands... I did not have to worry about heat exhaustion. We made "okay" time for walking. At the end of the day, you will have traveled the same distance to get that coveted t-shirt! (taking a little longer.)
You WILL smoke us all NEXT year!

Just try to be patience. Use your common sense. Day by day - it's very frustrating. In the big picture - it will be ok.
