Recommended Posts

went for a run again. Before surgery I would run a few times a week at an average pace of 5.2 mph. Today I couldn't run faster then 4.5 mph, but it was a run nonetheless! The run also seemed to break loose more of that blasted gas as my left shoulder started aching.

It was good to get back to it! It is my goal to run the 12K's of Christmas this year.

I was banded June 8th, Dr. Told me can only walk until one moth post surgery. It's only a few days away but I can't wait to start at least jogging. Did you feel any pain whatsoever?

I felt a little pull around my port, but aside from that it was a normal run. Once I got going that port area pull was gone.
