Milestone!!!

I know I just update the other day but I have great news for me! I was able to run today 2.6 miles in 28 minutes!! I am so HAPPY! I have not been able to run for nearly 5 years. I have been plagued with plantar fasciitis that I can rarely remember a time when I didn't have pain every waking minute. I have also had Tarsal tunnel in my foot and a strained Achilles. BUT that is now in the past!!!! I am so grateful that I was able to run again. I used to run a lot. I played soccer my whole life and ran cross-country in high school and beyond. I felt so free and invincible. I haven't felt this way in a LONG time!

Okay so thanks for letting me just blab!

Hey Sarah, that is awesome!
Does that mean that all the pain is gone for good? I'm impressed - 2.6 miles is a great beginning run. Actually, if it were me, it would be a miracle. lol
