I did it. I finally put on the running pants, the shoes, the jacket, the Ipod and went for a short run. I ran only about one mile. My lungs were burning. My legs were screaming. My mind was ecstatic. Unfortunately, when I got home, I was in enoguh pain I had to go to bed for the rest of the evening. But that's okay. It was worth it. I did it. I overcame my fear. And it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I do, however, realize I have a long, long way to go before I am back to my running capabilities before the surgery. Use it or lose it completely applies to my running! Ah, it can only get better from here.

Kristine, I knew you had surgery but I thought it was your hip. I didn't know it was a hysterectomy. I feel for you! It took a long time for me to recover. I'm just now feeling like I'm getting back to normal! It sounds like you are strong, though. Way to go!
Awesome. Way to go!
You totally rock!!!!
I am so happy for you, and so glad that you are recovering so fast.
Yea! Yea! Yea! So proud of you, it has been a long road. You are amazing!
