It's official: my wife is a badass. Yeah, Yeah, we all know that but just in case you forgot! Christina ran for the first time since December 20th on Sunday evening. Don't tell her doctors-she isn't supposed to be running or doing "full activities" for another week or so. She asked me if I thought it was good idea and I nodded approval. Just over 7 miles on her normal loop. She said she struggled at first as she has been enduring intense joint pain and stiffness as a side effect from one of her drugs.
For good measure, she ran again last night at dusk. Same trip with a better time and less of a struggle. The words back to normal are fitting here. The smile has returned. I just hope she doesn't decide to run across the country like Forrest Gump did. On the other hand, if she wanted to do that, she could. Trust me, she could...
