Back to running.

I quit running 5 years ago because of injuries and age. Recently I had two surgeries which took away the age and injury issues almost. Now I'm wanting to get to a 5K by the end of 2018. Ive been walking as PT from the surgeries. I'm ready to add some short spurts of running after attempting it last week.
