But. But, I've been running for nearly two weeks now.
According to my Strava log, and as of last night, I've logged a meagre total of 25k in the last two weeks.
Not much.
But also, not bad, because that's about 20k more than I did in the total second half of 2022.
Not bad because I'm running at least three times per week right now, logging at least 3k per run and slowly (SLOWLY) building back up the endurance and strength I used to have.
Again, I don't want to get ahead of myself, but…
But I seem to be on the mend.
Mending.
Mended.
Enough to run a bit, and hopeful for a chance at that Chicago 2023 start line.
That does mean I may have something to write about in the coming weeks and months... something besides griping about my sore knee and my lack of motivation to do anything because of my sore knee.
I might get to do some writing about recovery, rebuilding, retraining, and re-racing.
I don't want to get ahead of myself, but… I might be back.
