Good morning to run. Legs getting some spring back, but still will be a few days or so until I feel like putting in more. Interesting run from subdivision to roads to bike path to trails to road to home... fun!

It's good to see "fun" and "run" in the same blog entry. Hope things keep going well!

JG- You know that sounds great. Except I am not in shape for that. I had a my quad inury re-occur in October (it never healed or felt right). I ran zero miles in November, December and January. I did strength training in January and started out very slow with some miles. I started to run a little and then I had a pinched nerve in my neck. Sadly that meant more time off..... so long story... but I am running a few miles at a time. I thought about logging those miles but trying to keep positive and not bring others down around here.

13 miles this week. :)

However, if I can motivate, Erie is a possibility.

Hey Dan, great to hear from you! Really sorry to hear about the aggravating injuries! I live in Harrisburg, PA now & travel to Pittsburgh regularly ... we will have to meet up somewhere/some day!
