Still Walking

I'm still sidelined and walking when the weather cooperates. The pain in my side is mostly gone, although it still shows up when I sneeze or cough. I'm doing my best to not re-injure it by doing something stupid, like lifting or pulling something too heavy. I walked yesterday for almost an hour and probably covered close to 4 miles, and I'll walk again this afternoon. My guess is that I'm still a couple of weeks away from running again. I've put on a few pounds and am up to 160 for the first time in a couple of years. That's as much due to my eating too much over the holidays as it is to lack of running. Time to get that under control in the new year.
