I did it!
Today I ran my first 5k race.I started to train at 5 weeks postop.Today I am 10weeks and 5 days postop.It blows my mind what you can do when you set your mind to it.I have already registered for another 5k in October, so I can work on improving my time.My goal for todays race was just to complete it and I did it!!!
Cheers to our Health,

First of all, that was the perfect goal for the first race. Now you can try to improve your time but don't be so consumed with improving that it kills the joy. Keep on moving.

That is such a great accomplishment since you are only 2.5 months post-op! I'm impressed that you had such a lofty goal so early out! Way to go!
