What's Running?

OMG, I cannot wait for these stupid ankles to heal. I had an appt last week and the orthopedic surgeon said at least four more weeks of healing. I have been extremely good and followed all directions, have been drinking my soy protein and even added calcium and D supplements to my daily routine.

I am going into running withdrawals here... I haven't ran since August 29th and I'm losing it!!!! No running and no jump roping. No cardio at all! ACK!!!! I can't take it much longer.

I did buy some dumbbells last week. I started doing some lifting in the evenings at home....but it isn't the same as the runners high I used to get. I feel like a lump and I know it is going to be a slow tedious recovery.

Orthopedic surgeon said I will only be able to do recumbent bike for five minutes at a time adding two minutes each week. It will be excruciatingly slow to get back to where I was... Running 20-25 miles a week.

Right now it's been so long that all I can think is...What's running???
