I would prefer no one give me a timeline for healing and just let things progress as they do, since everyone is so different. Here's hoping you can get to the point where you can build up to those 3 mile runs.The Accidental Marathonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15391171805727633722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-74743192966234737282020-05-05T09:33:36.824-05:002020-05-05T09:33:36.824-05:00Thanks, Emmaclaire, it feels like a miracle to run...Thanks, Emmaclaire, it feels like a miracle to run again. And yeah, while 2020 has not turned out to be the year that I'd hoped it would be - I mean, 2020! I love fun numbers like that. Any case it definitely has been better to me than 2019, that's for sure.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890227462052573887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-44377288587930546022020-05-05T09:32:01.776-05:002020-05-05T09:32:01.776-05:00You ARE correct, I honestly didn't think I'...You ARE correct, I honestly didn't think I'd ever run again based on how much it hurt to simply walk.

I'm so glad your foot pain finally (mostly) went away.<br /><br />A pandemic on wool, eek! I should talk though, I just ordered more yarn for my favorite shawl as I've knitted two and don't have any of the right kind of yarn remaining. <br /><br />I hope we all can get a BB brunch again soon. At least the last time we had one, our entire group was together, which doesn't always happen.

I have the utmost admiration for people who are able to maintain any level of sanity with chronic back pain, it just sounds unbearable. And just to be able to run again at all must feel like a blessing. 2020 is not the best year globally, but it sound like in Shelley's world, it's a lot better than 2019!Emmaclairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06075275421271190384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-48873612562560206272020-05-04T16:55:01.970-05:002020-05-04T16:55:01.970-05:00I am loving seeing you come out victorious!

I know there were some dark moments when if I remember correctly you were wondering if you would ever run another step!

Why did I wait??<br /><br />Hope to see you running again and eating brunch at Blue Baker.<br /><br />I can't comment from phone but I do read ALL your posts. <br /><br />I just ran out of wool on my rainbow pandemic socks. They should be really interesting when I am done.
