I ran a mile Saturday morning.
I ran a mile Sunday morning.

YAY! Two days in a row! And my bloodstream was low on painkillers both mornings, which turned out to be Very Bad for other reasons but did give me a good idea of whether my feet really hurt. They didn't. Only the tiniest of tingles.

This is a HUGE sign of hope. Maybe I can leave the nerves in place, alive.

Aftereffects: mild soreness, mild tingling, starting yesterday and continuing into today.

Plan: 1) Run three days a week (no two adjacent), build up my wind again.
2) Gradually expand mileage until running, say, 3 miles or so easily.
3) Break 9mi/wk down into a four-day-per-week regimen.
4) Gradually expand mileage to train for whatever length I want.

I am very sorry to miss Bay to Breakers this year (it's next weekend) and am visualizing myself joyfully running it in 2005.

Thanks! 8-) Fingers crossed -- at any time it could flare back up.

I love that happy-kitty icon!
