The All New Quick Step...

I have started running again. So far I've done 5 miles on my new and improved post-surgery body. I would like to boast that I now have powers like the bionic man or an adamantium endoskeleton, but I really just have a weird looking scar and roughly half the ability to control my bowels that I once did. Now that I think about it, this could create new and interesting problems as I attempt to do my first half marathon later this year. I won't think about that right now. Right now, it is one foot after the other, on and on until finally I decide to stop. The thing I had forgotten about the process of getting back in shape and running again is how exhausted it makes you feel, at least at first. At some point, the exercise becomes energizing. Right now I just want to go to bed. And so I shall.
