After over a year of waiting.. Today I officially start re-running training. I got the double official official OK from my hematologist yesterday. I'm still clotted so I wanted to make sure that it was absolutely safe (I've been cleared for exercise for a while, but you know.. better safe than sorry- plus it's important that i keep them in the loop as to what I'm doing in general). I'll be going on the bike path with my 16 year old neighbor haha.. I don't want to do this alone JIC, not that she could do much to help :p but the moral support will be good.
I've been working for the past few months strengthening my legs, using the stationary bike, doing bodyweight exercises & light weight work, jumping around on ce's mini trampoline (which is surprisingly effective :giggle ). My teenage neighbor does track at school, so she's a sprinter but has never run more than that. Hopefully she like.. stays with me and doesn't bolt off :p It'll be good.
Today is just a test run.. To see how long we can go to start with. A month or so ago? I was with ce and jogged a bit just to see how comfortable it was and was able to go for a little bit so I want to do this first before breaking it down.

So hoorah. here's to hoping it is not 90, that the pollen does not kill me, and that my legs don't fall off.
 
thanks girlies.. I'm super excited. Hopefully my legs and brain are on the same page LOL
 
That's great La! You should be so proud of yourself fOr doing this! I hope your neighbor gives you lots of encouragement!
 
Good luck girlie!! I'm so jealous of all of you that like to run. I look like a penguin when I run, and it hurts my knees, lol. I would think it was because I'm too chubby, but even as a really skinny high schooler I couldn't stand it. :(
 
Yayyy! I'd totally stay with you and not dart off. Mostly because I'm a lazy runner. But also to make sure you didn't die and stuff.

Oh how exciting... gosh and to think they told you that you would never run again... so proud of you and wishing you the best!!! I can't wait to hear how it went :wub
 
lol angie


well it sucked. x10. it took me 17 minutes to do the mile c/o pollen murder. i had to take my inhaler 50 times (not really :p ) GOOD news is that my legs were totally happy and fine with it all. no leggie pain. what a different world that is than running with clots the whole time :p
