Hi everyone, I just wanted to share an awesome experience I had today.First I'll have to start at the beginning.At 5 weeks post op,I began arunning program.Now I am 11 weeks and 5 days post-op.Today I completed a full 5k run.My running partner and I ran the Run for the Cure. I totally believe now in a runner's high,because at the end of the 5k it was such an awesome feeling of achievement for me.I have already entered another race for October so I can see if I can improve on my time.Thanks for letting me share. Cheers Donna
