It's been a month since my last update, which is when I was still in recovery for my broken collarbone. In a cruel twist, I had an appendectomy on January 21st, which further put my running recovery behind. It's been two weeks since that surgery and I feel pretty good. Better than I thought I would at this point. I was hoping to get clearance to run at my next orthopedic appointment on the 17th, but that got pushed to the 26th since the doctor will be out of town. All of that puts my likely return to running at the end of February or beginning of March. I don't think I'm going to make it for the St. Patrick's Day 5k this year. I can see that by the time I can start running again it'll be four months since the last time and I'll be doing a lot of walking with intermittent bouts of running. It'll take time to build up the base again but I'm ready to go whenever I get the word.
