First Post-Pneumonia Run

I did a two-mile run-walk this morning, my first attempt at running since being diagnosed and hospitalized with pneumonia a little more than a week ago.  Obviously the Charlottesville Half on Saturday is no longer on my running list, but I'll have the chance to cheer for Butch, Steve (my New York virtual running partner), and a couple of my Charlottesville friends. 

That's what running and life is about -- wins and losses, progress and setbacks.  Having friends nearby makes wins a bit sweeter and the losses much more bearable.

It was great running with you that morning. I was bummed about the half... yet it was nice having "real" friends there to share the experience with.
