So jealous of you all

I haven't been able to run for weeks now. I was on holiday and I did take my stuff with me but it was too hot to do anything but drink cocktails. When I came back I had an operarion on my shoulder and 30 stitches but thought only 10 days and I'll get back to it :-) Stitches out last Friday morning and the wound split open in the afternoon so now having it packed and dressed twice a week :-( Doc says 4-6 weeks recovery now and I have cabin fever and itchy feet. Can't wait to get back to it. There is a 5k santa dash locally in the middle of November and I am entered for that so I will need to get back in training soon.

You are all soooooooooooooo lucky

That's terrible, are you OK to walk to keep up your stamina and at least get some fresh air?

I am and the dog is thankfull :-) That is my only saving grace but I miss the runs the dog and I usually do. Hopefully the packing will be out next week and I can at least get some short runs in. xx
