Thank you all so much for your support of me and this blog. It has been very difficult now, going on 2 weeks walking as I try to get my hip and achilles better so I can run again. I cannot thank you all enough for the encouragement and hope you have given me that I will be back running one day.
Not much is new today. I do feel somewhat better, but am still going to just walk while I wait to see the doctor on Thursday.
My walk yesterday was uneventful. 🙂 I walked 3.1 miles at about a 15 minute pace. It took an 45 minutes to walk what I have run in under 22. Anyway, I am thankful that at least I can walk!
The weather is cool and the days are nice and I am thankful to be a healthy 50 year old male considering 2 years ago I was anything but healthy.
Have an awesome day.

That’s a great attitude to have – at least you can walk! Hold onto that thought when you start feeling frustrated. And remember – this really will pass. Hang in there, Tom!

Thank you!!! I can only do what I can do, but it is hard; especially as the scale goes a little higher.

I agree – I think it’s great that you’re staying active, even if it’s frustrating. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone handle an injury so well! Hope you get some good news at the doctor and continue to feel better!

The important thing is you are and will not give up. I do understand its difficult, be easy on yourself and I wish I had some magic words to get you through the lows, for myself its just a constant reminder to stay positive and I will get there one step at a time. 🙂

Oh no! I feel better soon! Things running wise seem to be going better, I’m not allowing myself to get too excited just yet though 🙂
