Keep running and family balanced and be as fit as I can so I can run and play with the family.

Happily married for some time......5 great kids that overachieve in whatever they choose to do.

I went to work and  the phone book was opened to the physicians section. So I started to thumb through the pages and ended up on the pediatrist section. Thought entered my mind that I ought to give it a try. So like a runner, I looked at all the pictures and adds and made the choice of doctor solely based on if he or she looked like a runner. Well, I didn't get a runner, but I got a fitness guru. He did the normal foot test that I had done weeks ago and gave me the same diagnosis, posterior tibial tendonitis. He wanted me to get back running so he put 5 strips of tape on my foot and told me to try it out. Boy was I skeptical! Managed 4 miles without any issues! At the end of the run I felt  a slight bit of discomfort in the ankle. Oh it is nice to blog about a run. I need to start slow and get things totally healed.

Temp around 70 degrees and lots of wind. It's funny, I didn't mind the wind at all. It was just nice to get out two days in a row and run. Nice and easy today. Hanna is so out of shape! She didn't have the chance or the ability to cycle durning the last couple of months. She'll bounce back. Ankle felt okay. As I finish up the run, I can feel just a slight tghtness in the ankle.

More easy miles after work today. Right now that seems to be the max distance. I start to feel the ankle act up around 3.75 so I call it quits shortly after that. I am happy with the progress at the moment. Nice to be running again.

60 degrees and just a slight breeze this evening. Ran just a bit further today and the ankle felt just fine. I was expecting some discomfort at 4 miles but didn't feel anything, so I ran another mile. So far so good! It's just amazing, just a few strips of tape and I'm good. I just can't get too carried away. Maybe 5 or  6 in the morning.
