Starting Over, Again

Graduation was exciting, but short lived.  I was back in PT by Monday.  My back.  The good news is that because I addressed an injury early, I avoided three months of PT and only spent 3 weeks.  Unfortunately, I couldn't run, couldn't bike, couldn't swim, couldn't walk... It has stalled my upward momentum, but only briefly.  I am back to 30 min, so I haven't lost much.  I wish I had never gotten hurt, but that's life.  I had wanted to make tomorrow's 5K my "triumphant return to running", but that isn't going to be possible.  So now I have my sights on the annual Turkey Trot.  This year it is an 8K and a 5K.  I am hoping for the 8K, but a month ago, a 5K seemed far off, so I should just be happy if I could run it.  But you know how training junkies are... always need to be training for something.  I hear there's a half marathon coming up.  Ha.
