Six Weeks

Today is six weeks since I fell and broke my collarbone. I went for another walk, same 2.25-mile route as yesterday. The wind was out of the south this time, opposite of yesterday, but not really any warmer. Sunshine, though, and that's always welcome this time of year. I'm still wishing I could run but doing my best to avoid doing something stupid. At least I'm getting out a few days this week for moderate exercise. I have a feeling I've put on a few pounds with the lack of activity, but those should come off quickly once I can resume my normal schedule. Whenever that is.

December Walking

Today it was nice enough to walk. The last couple of weeks have been busy and the weather not so good. It was nice to get out and enjoy the sunshine even though it was a blustery day. I walked 2.25 miles and this time without a sling. I'm four weeks out from collarbone surgery and I think the minimal arm swinging during a walk is good for the shoulder. I've been doing my PT faithfully but I think it'll be after the first of the year before I can run again. I thought about trying a few short runs during the walk. Common sense prevailed. No need to risk reinjuring myself while the bone is still mending. I'm looking forward to the day when I can run again. Without falling this time.
