Tenth Runniversary
Today is my tenth runniversary. It's been a decade since I first stepped
on that treadmill. Like my first day running, I ran on
the treadmill while listening to br\oken.
I've had some set backs in my recovery. Not properly rehabilitating the
atrophy in the left leg has caused some problems with the muscles around
my hip. Listening to my trainer only made it worse.
But now I'm taking care of it properly.
Like that first day ten years ago, I have a goal I am working toward.
This time it is the Dublin Marathon in October. This will be marathon
number 13. I don't expect to PR. I think 10 minute miles are a much more
reasonable goal at this point, but frankly I'll be happy just to cross
that finish line.
It's been a long, hard road out of Hell, but God has been by my side and
put some amazing people in my life to help me along the way.
I have to thank the Giraffes for today. I have to thank the Giraffes for
much of my life this last decade. I was heading for an early grave, and
they changed that. Giraffes, I thank you from the bottom of my heart and
I look forward to running the LTC and many other races with you in the
next decade.
