I finally got tired of "wishing" I could still run...So I laced up my new ASICs and started back on the Runner's World Beginners 5k workout. It takes you from -0- to running a 5k in 8 weeks. I completed this workout in 2010 and was able to run a few 5k's before I tripped over my dogs and needed to have my 3rd knee surgery...
How sweet it would be to run like this again!

So, two years later I start again. I know I will never sprint like in that photo above (notice we won!)...but I should be able to jog a few miles. My real goal is to run a half marathon, but that was my goal last time and look where it got me...I nearly died trying. Ha!
