Jogging Again!!!
It has been a while since my last post. Typing with one hand takes some learning. I guess the more I type the faster I will get. I like some of the others, have had leg injuries. Mine is due to the fact that my right side is really trying to compensate for my left side. I never knew how challenging it would be to learn how to jog again. When I see somebody jogging- - I will watch them and try to focus, and see how I can make my pace or pattern more rhythmic. It is so hard getting that rhythmic pattern down again. Physical therapy helps as well. My therapist works with me on muscle strengthening, balance, and getting a more normal running pattern down. I attempt to jog on the the trail close to our home in N. Arlington- - about 3 miles. I attempt to jog it as smoothly as possible. I just hope to run the race to be able to show my son that no matter what life puts in front of you. . . You must never give up! One of my favorite quotes is: "You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated." by Maya Angelou
