Is it time to rejoice from such an invisible thing?

From years ago…what a dorky expression on the far left.

Is it time to rejoice from such an invisible thing?

Fourth morning in a row without foot pain.

This is a big deal.

It also brings disproportionally joy to the event itself.

Take what we can get, right?

Will this morning bring a sigh of relief from last week, which began with a Podiatrist visit?

Only ran twice last week. A couple of 10-milers, miraculously, without foot pain.

And then there were hours, days even, where the pain was literally debilitating just to walk.

Run Disney
Began the morning in pain, but was able to run a 10-miler.

 

i learn by going where i have not gone.

Technically, running should not work for someone like me with chronic foot challenges.

Pushing the boundaries of pain management, injury prevention and injury recovery can wear a person down, big time.

A smarter person would have quit years ago.

PS. Running is simply a metaphor for life.

Pain or no pain, that is the question

Two days ago the pain was excruciating and the run was cancelled. Yesterday however, after a fairly painful ten minute walk, a ten mile run ensued. How that was possible remains a mystery.

The 7th and 8th miles where seven-minutes flat. And the preceding six miles each got progressively faster, thanks in large part to zero pain.

This was a bit surprising stunning.

This morning? No pain. How? Why?

Time will tell.

The first five months of retirement have been impressively enlightening.
