MS to 5K?

I’d give anything to run again. Not that I was a runner… ever… but I was able to run once a long time ago.  I also used to dance and workout regularly.

Now, I just want to be able to even speed walk without limping.  I have good days and bad.  My good days are awesome and I can jog a little.  I even started participating in Zumba classes on Mondays, where I last about 15-20 minutes before my left leg starts to give out.  But then I have bad days sometimes where I am limping after just a few minutes of walking.  I am wondering if I should just keep pushing through these “bad” days and just keep walking (or limping) my way to running a 5K one day.  I mean, you’d think that if I’d keep up with it that eventually my left leg would play nice and get strong enough to allow me to be as active as I want to be.

MS to 5K, or rather Couch to 5K, seems to be something that’s been running (pun totally intended) through my head lately.

Second day of my CCSVI Procedure

Ok, gonna be heading back to the Albany Vascular clinic for my second procedure in 12 hours. I gotta eat something before it hits midnight here, because I am NPO after midnight. Gonna be hungry tomorrow. Hope I get more yummy muffins after the procedure… I ate the best muffin while under-the-influence of Versed after the first procedure yesterday. It was pretty cute and funny! LOL
