Who remembers Mad Magazine?  That famous phrase,  “What. Me worry?”

Well, I am not worried.  Nope.  Not me!

Really, though.  I am not.

See, I see the Orthopedic Doctor this coming Friday morning.  He is, hopefully going to give the official “Thumbs up” for me to resume my running.

Now, I resumed my running 1 1/2 weeks ago.  I eased into it a little at a time.  I listened carefully to my leg as I increased my distances.  I am up to 10 mile runs now.

And not one negative word from my leg!

I am a happy camper!

What will I say to the Doctor?

Well, that depends on if he asks me if I have been running or not.  I am really, really hoping he does NOT ask if I have been running.  I am a terrible liar.

If he asks, I may be forced to tell the truth.  Maybe he will not ask how far I have run!  Now there is a happy thought!

So, I am really, really looking forward to Friday’s appointment.  I am wanting to get the official okay to run again.  Maybe then I will not feel quite so guilty about these wonderful runs I have been having.  I want to talk to him about a couple of Ultra’s I have my eye on~which one he would recommend I train for.

One of the Ultra’s is on April 26.  The other Ultra is in July.  Running an Ultra in July in Mississippi~~~I must need my head examined to even consider it!  Would not that be a terrific run, though!?!

Yes.  Friday morning.  !0:30.
