About My Journey

Some things to know about me and my journey. I broke my foot, OUCH, spent 6 weeks in a cast. As a result of that injury figured out that I hade an exploded disk in my neck and had to undergo spine surgery. After the surgery it was weight gain time. Now, after all that it's time to get back into shape, LET THE JOURNEY BEGIN!!

New Start

Today has been an interesting day.  Started off with not getting up when I wanted to.
Since the time change was on Sunday, my goal was to get up at the "Same" time and try to get some additional extercise in.  Oh well not today, we will try again tomorrow.

During lunch today I went for a run and OH what a fun run it was.  1st starting out my legs were very sore and stiff.  Then as I kept running i found my chest to start hurting, unfortunately that never went away.  On my way back to the gym, within the last 10th of a mile, I FELL !  Not just a fall, but my feet got caught up in a metal wire ring that esentually hog tied me and down I went.  Now you have to understand where I was ON MAIN STREET !  Cars everywhere, me trying to cross the intersection and not paying attention to my feet but the cars that try to kill me on a daily basis......yup down I went rolling into the intersection.  Needless to say I quickly got up brushed myself off and continued my run.....
