I made myself happy! I woke up, put on my running stuff, hooked up JJ and went for a 30 minute walk/run. I haven't been this happy in 3 months. There is nothing that could ruin my wonderful mood.
The plan was to walk the first and last 5 minutes. Anything in between was based on how my knee felt. It was so strange when I began the run. I felt like I had to tell myself how to do it. It didn't matter if it was super slow or that I walked all of the hills. All that matters is that I actually listened to my body.
I promised Dr. E that I would only do short walk/runs on soft surfaces. I know that the sidewalk is not considered soft and because of this I really will listen to my body. Today was a good start. I know I will not be back to where I was in November but at least I can say I am trying again.
