Today is the day.

So it has been 17 weeks since my diagnosis.  I have been walking very well and it is now really too cold to cycle like I was in the fall.  The temperature is 27 degrees outside.  :(

So I made an appointment with my friend Kristen to go walk/run this morning.  I am going to attempt a real structured effort to run.  We are going to do a 3 minute walk/ one minute run.  It is a schedule I saw on an injury recovery - get back off your ass - website. 

Lately, the last few days, I have felt like a sedentary person, not a person recovering from injury.  I sit all day at work and after work all I want to do is sit on the couch and veg.  It's bad.  Its not a direction I want my life to take.  It's time to try to get back out there.  It has been 17 weeks.  My bone density is good, my diet has been decent so there is no reason why my stress fracture is not healed by now. 

I'm giving it a try today. Wish me luck.
