Finally...I'm back!

So after an unfortunate incident a couple of weeks ago which resulted in a painfully sprained ankle, I have returned to running this week full-force!

Patty, thanks for the website about measuring your distances.  It turns out I have been running more than I had thought, though not by much...

I also found some new, very inspiring music with which to run (The Presets' "A New Sky").  I've also almost completed THREE MONTHS of not smoking, so I'm feeling so much better about this!  On top of those two things, I'm in the middle/end of my yearly forced detox (i.e. no drinking...it's been almost three weeks) and I don't think I've felt this cleansed since I was a teenager! 

So I'm finding I can run faster for longer, though it still seems so difficult to surpass that 3 1/2 mile mark... anyway, it feels good to be back!

Barb, what's your new neighborhood like for running?  Keep up the good work, everyone!!
