After a long, long, LONG, long, long hiatus from almost all activity, propelled by a heavy work travel schedule, something big happened today.

I ran.

And there was zero pain in my shin anywhere. Even later.

Cured? Not a chance. But a bit optimistic? Heck yeah.

So I am again at a starting point, hoping maybe, just maybe to get a few summer 5ks in. And then we’ll see what happens.

I even got cross training today as our truck is in the body shop (a long story about me, a metal pole, and several thousand in body work), I had to ride my back up to the hardware store to get a new kitchen faucet.

What a day!
