moregoodtimes 331 Posted March 3, 2013 Butter..the pics are great! Youve inspired many to start c25k! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
massindex 346 Posted March 6, 2013 Agreed. Sounds like you're getting very good advice, which is a good thing. Fingers crossed. Deano Well I have my fingers crossed for you my friend. You've been a big inspiration to me and many others. We don't want anything to happen to you. Results are in and I'm back on the circuit. Threw a high Protein count but that was because I did a half marathon the day before my chems so the doctor says I go back to training. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PdxMan 4,292 Posted March 7, 2013 Yay! I talked to my physical therapist yesterday when she thought I would be able to get back in the game. She said end of April ... oye I curse at every runner out there when I drive to work. I know ... I'm terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PdxMan 4,292 Posted March 7, 2013 Can you do any cycling or does that not interest you? The only thing she will let me do is swim. Staring at tiles makes me crazy ... It has to do with the whole hip rotation thing. The muscles right along the lower spine at this point have just begun to start firing. At this point, part of my PT is to lay on my back with my legs bent slowly swaying side to side. 10 minutes of that kicks my butt. It's ridiculous, but I just keep doing what I can to get back at it. I'll get there, but just like eating post-VSG, I have to progress slowly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danyelleb 386 Posted March 13, 2013 Hi Guys! It's been awhile since I've posted, so I figured I'd say hi and check in on the runners. I'm so impressed by the pics, BTB! U look amazing. Julie- where is the update about your half? Did I miss it? You ran the princess half, right?! Where are the details and pix lady?! Byanka- your half is this weekend, right?! Can't wait to hear about that one as well!!! Fiddleman, you are so DARN fast! I admire how you can run so consistently on a treadmill. Mass- I'm glad that things worked out for you. Pdxman, April will come and go before you know it. I completely understand about cursing runners as you drive by them in the car. This was me awhile ago. I had to take some time off and sadly, I fell behind on my training schedule. A marathon is not in my near future after all. I decided that it was not worth forcing something- the last thing I need is an injury. I will run one eventually. I ran a half last weekend and it was okay. This is week 2 of consistent running and boy, did I miss it! Apparently, so did my body- I lost two pounds!! I'm in the 120's. Never in a million years did I see that coming. Anyhow, I digressed... I'm elated to see that everyone is doing so well. Take care and keep running!! (or swimming until you can run ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
