On the Road Again

The journey is long and arduous; both my travel to Scottsdale and the path remaining before me. After leaving Toronto on December 27th, 2010, I traveled 2,270 miles, through 2 countries, and 11 states…and saw 37 different state license plates.

Nevertheless, there is a long way left to go.

Trying to get an injury diagnosis, the complete downtime, surgery, and rehab have been a long and drawn out process that seemed like it might never end. I’ve come a long way, but I’m still nowhere close to where I need/want to be.
On Tuesday, I got back on the Track for basically the first time since I finished (slowly) at Penn Relays on April 24th of 2010 - Almost 10 months. I’m fortunate enough to have some great training partners down here with me, so the road back to respectability, although difficult, will at least be bearable. I’ve been thrown back into the mix with the women’s training group we have here; consisting of Andrea Parker, Ashley Hinther, Lisa Aguilera, and Lemlem Bereket. I’ll be their workout bitch for the next couple of weeks as I try to regain some fitness. Except on the steady state and surge sessions, I’m sure they’ll still hand it to me!
The workout on the track (2x600, 500, 400) went better than I expected. It’s nice to know that I haven’t forgotten to run (moderately) fast and turn left. Seriously though, I handled it pretty easily and had no pain at the surgery site, which is the most important thing at this point! One step at a time.
It’s finally starting to feel like I’m back on track…

p.s. Lemlem asked me if I had lost weight yesterday, because I was looking way too heavy before. That must mean I’m moving in the right direction!?
